Ping unveiled a new line of products. The new introductions include the Ping K15 driver and g25 driver. We are able instead to drive the Center of Gravity (CG) lower and farther back in the 460 cc head to produce that optimal high launch/low spin performance for greater distance
According to Solheim, most super game-improvement clubs utilize draw-biased technology as a way of getting higher handicap players to stop slicing the ball. “But we’ve come up with something called Straight Flight Technology that concentrates more weight in the sole near the heel of the club,” he says. “That enables players to rotate the clubface to a more square impact position, which leads to longer, straighter shots.”
That technology is the key feature of the K15 driver, which is available in three loft options (9.5, 10.5 and 12 degrees), and also the fairway metals, which come in 3, 5 and 7. “But we also use larger head and face profiles in this series to increase MOI (Moment of Inertia) for greater forgiveness and increased ball speeds,” he adds.
As was the case with its PING Rapture V2 Driver, which the Phoenix equipment maker released last year, Ping took its time in adding adjustability to this popular Ping g25 driver. “Once again, we wanted to be sure we would not impact performance in the process,” said Brad Schweigert, director of engineering at Ping. “Adjustability had to add value.”
The engineers didn’t have to add weight to that part of the club and were free instead to use it in places that improved performance. Utilization of Ping’s ultra-thin crown technology helped in those regards as well. “We were able instead to drive the Center of Gravity (CG) lower and farther back in the 460 cc head to produce that optimal high launch/low spin performance for greater distance,” he said. “At the same time, we distributed more weight to the perimeter for better forgiveness and higher Moment of Inertia (MOI).”
