Pro's view: Ping G15 driver

'Couldn't work the ball as well as I could with the Ping i15'

	Ping G15 driver

	Contact:	www.pingeurope.com



	Specifications:	The 460cc titanium head has a larger face than its predecessor and is longer front to back than the G10. It features Ping's ultra thin crown enabling an external sole weight to lower the centre of gravity and deliver higher trajectories and reduced spin. The Ping-designed TFC149D high balance point shaft also helps claim higher ball speeds and less twisting at impact. It's available in four lofts ( 9, 10.5, 12 and 13.5 degrees), three draw versions ( 9, 10.5 and 12) and upto four flexes


	Price:	£249 (graphite shaft)

Ping G15 driver - not as workable for the pro

Looks: The G15 has a much straighter top edge to my eye than the Ping i15 driver and it looks pretty good, too. Though both driver models are 460 cc, the Ping G15 driver is slightly longer and wider.

Feel/performance:I preferred the looks of the Ping G15 at first to the Ping i15 but having hit 30 balls with each I found that I couldn't work the G15 through the air as efficiently. I enjoyed the feel and the sound feedback but at the level I play I need to be able to shape the ball and I couldn't do it as well with the G15.
