Ping K15 Fairway Wood Revealed

As we know, different kinds of golf clubs have different features, and what kind of features does this Ping K15 Fairway Wood have? Ping K15 Fairway Wood is designed for golfers who tend to lose shots to the right. Its club face is squared with a substantial amount of sole weight concentrated near the heel. The larger profile and bigger face create a sizeable increase in MOI. The elongated head design increases the moment of inertia by 25%, and shifts the center of gravity lower and more rearward for a higher launch. Ping K15 Fairway Wood’s extra-wide face promotes faster ball speed and added stability across the entire face. The elongated head design along with an external weight pad ensures natural club head rotation to improve accuracy and distance. The external weight pad places 6% of the clubhead mass towards the heel of the club. This is called Straight Flight Technology (SF Tec), Ping’s patented technology.

The performance of Ping K15 Fairway Wood is enhanced through loft improvement. The loft of traditional fairway woods is usually 15* for the 3 wood, and Ping G15 and i15 3 wood is 15.5*, but Ping K15 Fairway Wood elected the loft to 16*. This is designed to help the struggling golfer get the ball in the air. The loft of 3 and 5 woods also accounts for the relative rise in popularity of the strong 3 wood, and the 4 wood. The Ping K15 Fairway Wood has a very nice weight and balance to it when you first hold it in your hands. The oversize head and large club face also make this a very reliable looking fairway wood. This club is extremely well balanced. From the end of the grip to the sole of the head, one senses a club that was built to be easy to hit and easy to play.

So what kind of features does this Ping K15 Fairway Wood have? It features large head design for high MOI, high launch and low spin, elongated face for high forgiveness across the entire surface and fast speeds, and low profile design for improved performance while inspiring confidence to launch the ball higher.

Ping Red Wood Putter Review

    The new Ping line is named for Redwood City, CA, a little south of San Francisco, where Karsten Solheim lived when he began making putters in his garage. They've chosen three classic models to render in a milled version: the Anser, the Zing, and the mallet-like Piper. The Ping Redwood Anser and Zing heads weigh 340 grams, the Piper head 355 grams. As a point of reference, Scotty Cameron, who is fussy about the weight to length ratio in his putters, uses 340 grams in 34-inch putters and 350 grams in 33-inch models. The lie angle of the Red Wood Anser and Zing can be adjusted plus or minus 4° while the face-balanced Piper mallet with its double bend shaft can only be adjusted plus or minus 2° from the standard lie angle. Ping Red Wood Putter is milled out of 303 stainless steel, a material Cameron began using in 2002 for his Studio Stainless line. It's a much denser material than the cast stainless steel Ping has long used and, thus, the club heads are heavier than all but their long discontinued nickel beryllium cast putters. The super large 303 stainless steel head is precisely polished to reach the standard specs, providing you simple line and nice ball-contact feel thus to inspire confidence. The use of black nickel-chromium cover provides Ping Red Wood with low-reflex look, inspired by the unique look of renowned TOUR WEDGE. The typical shape design utilizes Ping’s original design, allowing you to find a type fit for your putts approach. The symmetrical icon design makes the Red Wood Putter look simpler and cleaner.

    Ping Red Wood Putter uses a spiral grip with “Redwood” icon to provide different feel for golfers. The multi-layer grip is printed with “Redwood” trademark to enhance feel and this is preferred by most golfers. There are two kinds of designs for choosing, including PP58 offered to non-face balanced model and PISTOL offered to face balanced model. The Plush Tour Style headcover included in Ping Red Wood can protect your putter and the ultra-large mark is more outstanding.

Ping G10 Fairway Wood VS Rapture V2 Fairway Wood

Ping G10 Fairway Wood:

Ping G10 Fairway Woods have been popular since the early days. The crown that intersects the sole provides a low profile head, which combines with a shallow face help G10 perform more great. With the intersection of the crown and sole, the Ping engineers reposition mass for a lower center of gravity location by positioning a large weight pad on the sole. The location of the CG allows higher ball speed and reduced spin. The shallower face results in an added forgiveness and consistency. Its low edge and bounce angle effectively lower the CG which promotes the energy transfer.

      Many testers feel that the wood gets the ball off the turf just as easily but with a way more boring trajectory. Although it may look closed to some, it hits dead straight for them, so do not base opinions based on how it looks at address. They think the stock TFC 129f shaft is suitable for this wood.

Ping Rapture V2 Fairway wood:

The Ping Rapture V2 has done well to follow G10’s design lead. With a shallower face it sits much better behind the ball, inspiring confidence off the ground. With the enlarged multi-material head, 17-4 SS head with Tungsten Alloy Sole, thin crown design technology, thin machined variable face with robotic plasma weld and new dual rapture graphic alignment aid, the Ping Rapture V2 fairway wood provide better features than G10.

Compared with G10, some testers hole these opinions that V2 is a little bigger, and produces a stronger more penetrating ball flight and overall sits better at address that G10. Both are great clubs. V2 has a better stock shaft (Mitsubishirayon JavlyFx). It felt really solid. The v2 line is super low spin though so if you don't need serious spin reduction you might want to save a few bucks and go with the G10. But some of them have the opposite opinions that the V2 hit the ball way higher, not lower than the G10 - cost me distance and the G10 4 wood 10 yards farther than the Rapture V2 4 wood when they hit. They do not like the green color that V2 provides because it is uncomfortable to line up.

If you want to know which one is better for you, you’d better have a try with them by yourself. I believe you can get the right one.
