I've been looking for a Ping G10 driver for a few weeks now, I have the chance to purchase one for a great price and in the stock shaft in stiff. The only thing I'm worried about is the loft, 7.5*!! For those who have experience with the driver, How is the trajectory? Especially in a 7.5, thanks.

I went to a fitting night and tried the G10 (7.5) and the I15 (8* I think) No problems with either. G10 has quite a high flight. Good driver...

my personal experience with ping driver heads is that the vast majority of heads play with higher loft than that on the sole. so a 9 may be a10.5, or a 7.5 may be more like 9... so i wouldnt be too worried..if you get it and cant play it, shoot me a pm...

Besides, 7.5 is pretty bad ass ;)

I would pass if I was you. A higher lofted driver will be easier for you to control. You could then bring the flight down with a low launching shaft.

I've heard the same thing on ping drivers. For what it's worth, I believe Bubba Watson plays a 6.7 degree g15, although he has an upward angle of attack of 5 degrees too.

I play a G10 9* with a UST mid launch shaft that has the ball flight of any other 10.5* that I have ever hit. With the same shaft and launch point, it stands to reason that a 7.5* should give you the same ball flight as a 9* with the same shaft specs.

That would explain why I hit my 10.5 degree G10 higher than my 15 degree 3-wood - a lot higher!!

I hit an 8* i15 because the 9.5* launched too high...and the i15 head and Axivcore Red shaft are definitely geared as low launch heads. I agree the Ping lofts their clubheads more then what is specified.

i had to switch out my shaft to a Prolaunch red, high kick point, stiff shaft to get my flight down low. The G10 definitely launches high. I'd go with the 7.5*.

    • In terms of years alone Tiger was born about 35 years after Jack and Scottie 20 years after Tiger. But Scottie didn't come out of the gates as fast, so it's more like 25 years between eras (Tiger late 1996 to Scottie 2022). Anyway, obviously Tiger and Scottie's competition is more similar. No disrespect to Jack but the competition in the Brititsh Open especially was weak up until the mid 80s or 90s. The rest of the fields weren't very global either, not compared to today at least. 
    • Good post.  I've been thinking about what Scottie would have to do to get into the greatest ever conversation and it led me to a question.  Which was a bigger disparity in strength of field, Jack to Tiger or Tiger to Scottie?  
    • And those numbers by the way included the Olympics as an official victory which it currently is not. Using the official numbers his rate would be 21% which is below Tiger's lifetime figure. Sheer insanity. 
    • I've done a lot of number crunching over the years. This is pretty astonishing. Up until the end of 2009 Tiger played in 253 PGA Tour events. That is including all starts as an amateur. He won 71 of them or 28%.  Do you want to guess how many events it took Jack or even Sam Snead to win title #71? It took Jack 425 (16% rate) and Snead 381 (19%). Jack was 42 by then, Snead I think 43. Those of course are the only players to ever win 65 or more tour events. That was not a typo, it took Jack 172 more tries and about 9 more years to reach Tiger's figure. People don't realize how insane Tiger's win percentage was.  If Scottie Scheffler can have 5 more consecutive seasons like this year it would put his career rate at 23%. And Scottie just had the best non-tiger season in modern history.
