I went to golf show this weekend looking for nothing in particular and left impressed at the feel and look of the Ping i15 driver. I only had about 25 swings with it into a net 15 yards in front of me, but the feel of the driver was simply something I didnt expect. I've always been a Taylor Made kinda guy, but this new Ping has got me thinking to drop the $350.

Im kinda put off a bit because the reviews I read state its a low handicapper club and i'm no low handicapper. I generally shoot in the low 90's and break 90 once in a while, but have gone through a complete and utter overhaul of my swing and am starting to feel more comfortable with it.

With that being said, anyone play with this club, test it out, or can give some additional input? Let me know...

Have you tried the G10? Ive hit the i15 and length doesnt seem to be much different. The G-10 is easier to hit straight (to me). I'm going to say because of the weigting in the club itself. Both of the clubs are good drivers, it would just depend on your preference in feel and control.

The i15 is absolutely a great club!!! Best club I've ever had the pleasure to wrap my hands around. It's great for shot shaping and is crazy long for a PING driver. My off-center hits do come off a little errant but not something out of the norm that I won't be able to get myself out of trouble should it happen. It has great feedback and the 2° open club face to promote a fade biased style club sits well. I love the way it looks at address and am completely satisfied with what's in my bag. To be honest, I believe it's the best driver PING has come out with in years. It is for low handicappers, but if you say your swing is getting better than why not give it a shot?

      Day 27 (4 Apr 26) - Worked with grandson on basic pitches/punches in the back yard with varied irons/wedges.  Wrapped up the day rolling some putts on the 30’ carpet I can set up in the yard to give varied terrain - and this carpet rolls almost too easy. A great way to figure a read and know that pace has to be near perfect to get in the hole.

      My Swing (saevel25)

      By saevel25 · Posted

      A bit of a struggle today.  Just some thoughts/musings.  For the backswing, it is like I am never going to be moving on from this. I don't know if I can ever get to the point where the backswing isn't like over 1.5 seconds in duration. Which is probably not ideal. I would like to get to the point where I can just fling the arms back and up.  I have to feel like my hands are going to hit my right thigh from P1 to P2. If not then they like to move 2-5 inches towards the ball from P1 to P2. Then it's just bad from there. This feeling is my hands not gaining much depth, just maintaining depth from set up. From the DTL view, the hands head towards the camera.  While I am doing that, hinge the crap out of the club with my wrist only. Hinge in a way that the club is pointing at the camera at P2.  From P2, lift the hands straight up. I can get here, and still roll the club inside and get it way too shallow.  With the downswing. There isn't much here. I still can't get the flow of this or the sequencing of this to line up. It doesn't help that hinging from P1 to P2 just throws off my entire timing as well.
