I've played an R5D for 5 years or so. Two years ago, I began hooking the ball after taking lessons (Turns out my hand come over just alittle early). Anyways, last june I hit one of these Ping Raptures and loved it but the price was 450 dollars at the time so I had to pass. This past sunday I walked into my local golf shop with a coupon for 30% off any item over $100. I walked out with my rapture after paying much less than half the original price. It hits great and I love it (Only played 1 round with it but big weekend ahead). Hitting it around 250 to 260 on solid shots which is about where I was with the R5 except these are straight.

My question is does anyone else have this driver if so what do you think of it? Also if you don't have it what have you heard?

Clubs:
Driver: Ping Rapture 10.5 degree, Stiff Flex shaft
Fairway Wood: Ping Rapture 17* - Stiff Shaft
Hybrids: Callaway Heaven Wood 20* Firm Flex
Irons: Titleist 704 CB (Forged) (4-PW), Dynamic Gold S300 ShaftsWedges: Titleist Vokey 52 and 58 degreePutter: Odessy White Hot XG Model #1Bag: Ping HooferBa...

I got this driver about a year ago and have been hitting it ever since with no problems. Just got a new shaft for it and am very excited to begin playing it with the standards I need in it. The sound that comes off of the club is like nothing else. It's not the annoying sound of the Nike's, its almost magical. Worth every penny.
What's In The Bag?

Driver - Rapture 10.5 Epic 68g X-Pure - Balance Certified
Fairway Metal - Titleist PT 18°
Irons - Mizuno MP-67 3-PW Project X 6.0 Wedges - Mizunos R Series Chrome 52°, 56°, 58° Project X 6.0 Putter - Yes! C-Groove Callie-f - Balance Certified Bag - Ping Freestyle...

    • Ah.. my regular weekend league. Lol Scrambles are fine. Usually there's charity involved. So there's that. There are much worse events Im forced to attend twice a year. 
    • Does Justin Thomas have a massively underrated short game? It seems every time I look up he's hitting it close from a tough lie after short siding himself. What masterful touch
    • I freaking hate them. Too expensive, cheaters, food sucks, too dependent on weather, I keep telling myself never do it again but I'm a dummy
    • I enjoyed the A-B-C-D scramble we did at Kittyhawk before it shut down. Yes. The point was to meet the other members and get the season kicked off. Nobody took it too seriously. At least with that group, cheating wasn't a big issue.  As the D part of A-B-C-D, I enjoyed getting to play with one of the Association's top players. One year I played with the city champ. Man could he hit a ball.  It probably isn't something I'd want to do more than once a year, but it has its place.
