Ping K15 Series Review

Ping K15 including K15 driver, fairway wood, irons and hybrid offer another wonderful choice for golfers who demand for more speeds and increased distance. Ping golf is famous for its innovations used in clubs, and this K15 line also does not disappoint us. Ping K15 Driver most features its Straight Flight Technology (SFT). This technology positions 10% of the head’s mass toward the heel, promoting more face rotation and a straighter ball flight. Ping K15 Driver has a head of 460cc which helps move weight away from clubface, allowing for a backward center of gravity and high trajectory. The length from heel to toe is increased to create a larger surface for higher forgiveness and more ball speeds. The K15 driver uses a design that largely conceals its external sole weight pad. This driver also features the Ultra-Thin Crown Technology which has successfully redistributed a weight of 8 grams to the external weight pad and further optimized the center of gravity (CG) and moment of inertia (MOI). "As you start to swing down, the weight wants to rotate the clubhead and close it to square," said Solheim, Ping’s Vice President. "The nice thing is that the K15 doesn't have a draw face or a closed head, so it really doesn't want to go past the square position. It really just wants to go back to square and stay there."

Ping K15 Irons is a hybrid set made up of multi-metal irons and high launching hybrids for maximum forgiveness. The titanium face and steel body create a higher MOI for greater accuracy and consistent distance. The wide-soled irons feature a low and deep CG position to promote higher trajectories. Ping K15 Hybrid has an iron-style head with offset to create a more dynamic launch than previous models. This helps get the ball in the air more easily. The multi-metal irons design of Ping K15 Hybrid combines a large, lightweight titanium face with a 17–4 stainless-steel body to increase forgiveness and improve launch conditions. Ping K15 Fairway Wood is made to accompany the irons, hybrids and driver in the same line. It features the same Straight Flight Technology as the K15 driver to deliver extremely straight shots. Its large and low profile design as well as elongated face increases the MOI and promote ball speeds.

Ping K15 Fairway Wood Review

K15 driver shows Ping’s super strength on game improvement, which is the preference of medium and high handicappers, and its great craft also catches attention of high-level golfers. This Ping K15 Fairway Wood also continues the exceptional performance of K15 series. According to PING, like k15 driver, Ping k15 fairway wood also uses Straight Flight Technology (SF Tec) which can provide maximum forgiveness, making this fairway wood practical both on fairway and the greens. This technology can help golfers hit straighter. The biggest feature of K15 fairway wood look is its long and shallow face. A large profile and bigger face create a sizeable increase in MOI. This design positions the center of gravity back to produce high launch and low spin for gaining yards. The Ping’s patented SF Tec moves more weights (6%) to head heel to decrease fade trend. Ping K15 lengthens the face to increase the MOI, ensuring forgiving results across the hitting surface. It also promotes clean contact and faster ball speeds for added distance. The optimal CG location, low and far from face, increases MOI by 25%. This Ping fairway wood can provide more flight distance and more ideal flight trajectory. Its ultra-stable head design helps golfers achieve more stability and distance for the most ideal flight shots. The perfect visual effect, ideal head design and more back CG allow golfers to create higher flight shots on any kind of conditions.

The face angle of irons is smaller and smaller while that of fairway wood becomes larger and larger. For example, the face angle of 3 wood is usually 15°, but the face angle of K15 3 wood reaches 16°for higher flight. There are some players who tested Ping K15 Fairway Wood from its look, hand feel, sound feedback, distance, accuracy and forgiveness. The distance provided by this Fairway wood is similar to the driver in the same line. Most testers found that the shots were left inclined, which indicates K15 fairway wood is fitter for golfers who have problem on fade.

Ping K15 Driver Review

Ping K15 Driver is designed for golfers who are seeking high forgiveness, long distance and high accuracy. Combining a large-profile 460cc head and a club face that is longer heel to toe, K15 Driver provides low and back center of gravity which helps to create strong trajectories and low backspin, leading to high MOI. The MOI is sizeable for consistent performance across the hitting surface. The most important technology incorporated in Ping K15 Driver is Straight Flight Technology, called SF Tec by Ping. Ping K15 Driver use SF Tec to move 10% of the head’s mass to the heel, promoting more face rotation and a straighter ball flight. This technology is an innovation of Ping and helps K15 Driver a lot to square the club face for consistently straight tee shots. For the part of shaft, Ping K15 Driver adopted TFC 149D shaft. Ping K15 Driver utilizes a special carbon shaft and high balance point technology. The gravity of the shaft is 2” higher than standard design, increasing the start speed and MOI for longer distance and more accurate.

Our testers say: Ping K15 Driver is one of the best drivers for feel, playability and distance. The head is designed for higher accurate and forgiving. Some testers gain up to 10 to 15 yards with Ping K15 Driver. It realizes the least distance loss on less than perfectly struck shots. Ping K15 Driver focuses on straightness, and it did that. The K15 allows good stability across the entire face. With Ping K15 Driver, players rarely lose shots to the right. Ping K15 Driver becomes the best antidote for the slicers.

Ping K15 Irons for Beginners and High Handicappers

Ping has created a plenty of exceptional clubs for golfers such as its G-line, i-line and K-line. The Ping K15 Irons deliver better performance than its predecessors do. It is remarkably solid which gives a fluid feel to golfers. The best part about the Ping K15 Irons is that they are built to offer lower spin and higher ball flight, which means you can land the ball softly and stick it on the green right by the pin. This also means that you have more forgiveness and do not have to hit the ball directly with the center of the clubface every single time in order to get the ball flight you are after. Extremely forgiving, the Ping K15 Irons are suitable for beginners as well as golfers of high handicap. If you find it difficult to get the ball airborne or have problems with the alignment, these Ping K15 Irons are the optimal option for you. They allow golfers to enjoy a consistent and high trajectory throughout the whole set with the inclusion of strengthened lofts.

The key technologies used in Ping K15 Irons include: a lightweight titanium face insert which helps move 27 grams to the perimeter and sole to increase forgiveness, a broad sole that lowers the center of gravity (CG) for higher shots while internal weighting stabilizes the clubhead through impact. These chunky irons won't win many prizes when it comes to workability, but for forgiveness and ease of use, they're up there with anything else in the super game-improver category. In addition, the K15 is a set that is designed with hybrid long/mid irons blended with traditional mid/short irons. Many golfers hit further with their hybrids than with their long irons which will add to the appeal of this new set of clubs. Hybrids in the K15 Irons span from 3-6, but 5 and 6 irons will also be available, giving golfers the flexibility to optimize their set by choosing the clubs that they prefer to play with.

The technology of the

G15 Iron

provides the high-launching, maximum forgiveness benefits that the majority of golfers rely on to bring consistency to their iron play. The stainless steel iron’s cavity design features a new Custom Tuning Port (CTP) which expands the perimeter weighting and increases the moment of inertia. Weight savings from a thinner face is re-positioned to the toe for added forgiveness on mis-hits and its wider sole produces a higher launch angle. Stronger lofts combine with a center of gravity located low and farther from the face to produce longer shots without sacrificing the higher trajectory required in a maximum forgiveness iron.
