Golf Equipment For Years Ping G10 Driver Review

Perhaps no other brand has had as rich a history of combining forgiveness and performance. Ping has scored huge with this line over the years… the G2 and G5 clubs were very popular because they were an awesome combination of looks, performance and value. And the next popular one is Ping G10 driver which is all hot deals in every golf shop. It still has many of the components of the other two models with a few extra upgrades. You can’t really see the upgrades on the G10 driver but it makes it the most advanced driver in the G series.

The Ping G10 driver is engineered with a cast body and fully machined face from high-grade 6-4 titanium. The Ping G10 460cc club head features a larger profile with a taller face and deeper crown that produces a higher moment-of-inertia for greater forgiveness and increased ball velocity.

Using finite element analysis driven by a Cray Supercomputer, company engineers optimized the crown, sole and face structure interaction of these golf clubs to ensure maximum energy transfer to the ball. Thinner crown and face designs provided discretionary weight which was positioned inside the club head to lower the center of gravity for reduced spin and higher launch. Ping’s patented variable face thickness technology produces a thin, highly responsive hitting surface for increased ball velocity and greater consistency across the face. The G10 comes with the standard TFC 129D shaft (Soft R, R, S and X) and also the Grafalloy ProLaunch Red (R, S & X) and UST V2 High Launch 65 (R, S & X).

Even though the Ping G10 driver may seem to only have minor differences over previous models for sale in the golf shop, the minor changes in weight distribution and construction have combined to form a driver that is a major improvement in ball speed and forgiveness. It was really tough to find negatives.
