subject: Best Performing Ping G15 Driver Review [print this page]



The Ping G10 driver was one of the best selling and best performing drivers Ping has ever made and when word spread about the release of a Ping G15 driver, Ping golf enthusiasts began licking their chops.

Like its predecessor, the G15 is a 460cc titanium driver meant for golfers seeking golf clubs maximum forgiveness. This is where the similarities end, however. The G15 is probably the most forgiving driver on all types of mis-hit that PING has ever created.

The G15 has numerous technological improvements over the G10. The Ping G15 driver attains a higher MOI by lengthening the head from front to back. Additionally, a 7% larger face increases ball speed and provides consistency across the entire hitting surface. Lastly, weight savings from the ultra thin crown are positioned as an external sole weight to optimize the center of gravity for higher trajectories and reduced spin. Weight saved by using an ultra-thin crown aids the forgiveness with unique sole weighting.

The improvements don't end at the clubhead though. The new PING TFC 149D shaft allows for a five gram increase in head mass without increasing swingweight or overall weight. All of these seemingly small changes should result in higher ball speeds and an increase in MOI.

Feel off the face of the Ping G15 driver is solid when well struck. Heel or toe shots are instantly recognizable, as are hits that are a little thin or fat. Unlike some other drivers today, if you do not hit the ball on the sweet spot, you will not be falsely rewarded with a solid feeling impact. This is a welcome surprise in a driver in this category. Generally I have found that the game improvement golf clubs always seem to reward you with an awesome feelingyou look up and you have hit a snap hook that nose dives 100 yards off the tee.
