The Ping G10 Driver series is an upgrade of the G Series driver. Previous versions included the extremely successful G2 and G5 models. The G10 retains many of the components of those two prior models. However, the G10 has several improvements and was both hot in the golf shop and the golf course.
The G10 Driver Using finite element analysis (FEA) driven by a Cray Supercomputer, PING engineers optimized the G10 driver's crown, sole and face structure interaction to ensure maximum energy transfer to the ball. The 460cc driver features a larger profile with a taller face and deeper crown that produces a higher MOI (moment of inertia) for greater forgiveness and increased ball velocity. Thinner crown and face designs provided discretionary weight which is positioned inside the clubhead to lower the CG (center of gravity) for reduced spin and higher launch. Features of the Ping G10 Driver: Larger perimeter head size increases MOI Taller face profile and deeper crown maximize ball velocity Thin, variable face geometry Internal weight pad positions CG for low spin and high launch PING-designed TFC 129D shaft.
Although not a huge technological breakthrough, the G10 driver delivers in many crucial areas. By thinning out the crown of the all titanium club head, Ping has lowered the center of gravity in the club to help achieve greater swing speed and distance. The sweet spot is large and overall the G10 is very forgiving, even on off-center shots.
Ping has a lot of PGA Tour players on their roster, and there are many playing the Ping G10 Driver. It is also one of the more popular drivers among casual players as well. It's very hard to find a negative review and everyone seems to love their G10.
