The sound and feel are very solid, you can really feel the ball compress on the face as it leaves at high speed.
The sound is more of a muted crack and much quieter than I anticipated. If you practice on an enclosed range your ears will thank you for your choice in drivers. Shots hit away from the center of the face retain a lot of ball speed and stay online really well.
My miss is low on the heel and those misses stayed in the air fairly well and went a good ways. Shots hit down on the heel or higher on the toe side still stay online really well due to the Ridgeback spine and rear weight. The C is just slightly higher than mid-launch for me, but the low spinning head never allowed my shots to balloon or rise even into the wind. I do wish the face was just a touch deeper as I had to play with my tee height in order to find the optimal setup.
The better players will enjoy the neutral weighting and there seems to be very minimal draw built into the driver. Overall, the Tour Edge Exotics C driver is a great club that will probably be overlooked by too many golfers. If you are looking for added distance, a lot of forgiveness and want to keep some money in your pocket, then you should seriously take a look at Tour Edge.
Super low-spin drivers were all the rage at the time. With their forward center of gravity, they were helping golfers optimize their launch conditions beyond their wildest dreams: crazy high launch, ridiculously low spin. Many in the business, including myself, had one of these drivers and spent many launch monitor sessions trying to figure out how to get more distance from these high knuckleballs.
The bad news was that forward-CG drivers, by nature, were really unforgiving. Bad shots were really short and crooked. Its CG was located as low and as rearward in the driver head as possible, which he said would offer the best of both worlds: optimized launch conditions on good shots, as well as the best possible forgiveness on bad shots. Building the perfect driver was a long way off and still is , but Jertson was excited where Ping had landed with the G When it was released , the driver was a powerful testament to his vision.
Its rear-CG design created great distance on good and bad shots, and it was also a very straight driver. The G30 sold incredibly well and, as a result, the industry mostly shifted away from forward-CG drivers.
The company shrunk the size of its new G drivers in a climate where full-size drivers have become the norm. Despite their slimmer frames, however, the G drivers are actually more forgiving than the G drivers which were even more forgiving than the G The drivers have the lowest, most rearward CG of any Ping drivers ever, and their smaller size is said to improve their aerodynamics so golfers can swing them fractionally faster.
I hit five shots with each driver on Trackman IV, and to ensure as much of an apples-to-apples comparison as possible, I tested each driver head with the same shaft.
Each driver head was adjusted to the same loft, or as close as possible. The G LST had a loft of 10 degrees, and it was adjusted to 9. Improvements generally come in the form of improved head shaping, a better feel, or enhanced adjustability.
That led to a significant improvement in distance. With my swing speed and ball speed staying about the same, I added an average of 7. I saw an average of a 1. The result was an average of 6. It was the longest and straightest driver I hit in the test. One way to explain the improved launch conditions is that I hit the G drivers more consistently. Is that its slightly enhanced forgiveness shining through? Maybe, maybe not. To me, the changes Ping made to the look and feel of the driver were just as important as the performance difference I saw on Trackman.
For that reason, I felt more confident with the G drivers in my hands. I was sold on the looks alone. I also preferred the sound of the G drivers to the G drivers. Looks and feel are subjective, of course, but to me the improvement was night and day. I do want readers to keep in mind that this was a one-person test and I hit a limited amount of balls. I also want to address the weaknesses of the G drivers.
A bigger deal for some golfers might be the G crowns. Maybe the improved forgiveness will show up on a launch monitor or on the course. What determines the best driver on the market; is it the opinion of professional club fitters, professional golfers or testing results from a group of amateurs? At GolfWRX, we believe all three sources can lead golfers to an answer. Being a website founded by passionate golfers with a mission to serve passionate golfers, though, we place a special emphasis on the opinions of our GolfWRX Members — the most knowledgeable group of golfers on the planet.
At the moment just hit it with range balls on a rather cold evening. Also will spend some time with the club pro to see if I can get it going. I am a mid-handicapper. By all standards, an excellent shaft. But the AXIV caters for the stronger player while this driver seems to be catering to the recreational golfer. I just bought the Is he right? What do X, S, R and A mean?
