With the G15, and for the first time, PING’s esthetics may have matched their technology.Īlthough PING did not change the crown finish for the G15, there are two noticeable differences between the PING G15 and G10 at address. I would count myself among one of the many golfers who have loved the way that PINGs feel but were less than inspired by their looks (remember the PING TiSi, anyone?). All of these seemingly small changes should result in higher ball speeds and an increase in MOI. The new PING TFC 149D shaft allows for a five gram increase in head mass without increasing swingweight or overall weight. The improvements don’t end at the clubhead though. Weight saved by using an ultra-thin crown aids the forgiveness with unique sole weighting. 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.

Additionally, a 7% larger face increases ball speed and provides consistency across the entire hitting surface. The G15 attains a higher MOI by lengthening the head from front to back. The G15 has numerous technological improvements over the G10. The G15 is probably the most forgiving driver – on all types of mis-hit – that PING has ever created. This is where the similarities end, however. Like its predecessor, the G15 is a 460cc titanium driver meant for golfers seeking maximum forgiveness. Even if you didn’t like PINGs in the past, you start to wonder, what did they come up with?Īfter putting the driver through a full battery of tests it has certainly made an impression on me. In fact, PING was going out of their way to tell anyone and everyone that would listen that its new clubs had monumental improvements. It seems like the word “hype” just isn’t a part of PING’s vocabulary.īut something felt different when PING announced it would release two entirely new lines of clubs. They only have a select number of pros which they endorse. Among the giants of the golf industry, PING has always remained one of the quietest in the business.
