Tomcat

The record holds one release under the Ping Tomcat name: the Tomcat C, released as part of Ping's Cadence TR edition. amateurgolf.com described it as a center shafted mini-mallet, though that description comes from the publication's own reporting rather than from Ping, and should be read as such.

The maker's own page prose we hold does not speak to the Tomcat C directly, but to grip and setup details tied to later Tomcat 14 products, a straight-taper, midsized pistol design meant to give golfers larger flat surfaces for face awareness, paired with a 17" grip built heavier than standard to act as a counterweight through the stroke. Ping's language is consistent across both the standard and mid-length versions of that later product, word for word, suggesting the grip and setup philosophy carried across variants rather than changing release to release.

With a single entry on record for the Tomcat C itself, there isn't yet a multi-year arc to trace here, one edition, one design description from a third party, and a separate cluster of maker language attached to later Tomcat 14 products. Readers looking to connect the Cadence TR era Tomcat C to what Ping's page describes for the Tomcat 14 line will want to weigh the gap in years and naming for themselves.
