I found 2 deals on used PING drivers on craigslist.

G30 for    $175

Anser for $80

I'm new to golf. 20handicap.

I'm wondering if it's worth the investment to buy the G30 at this time( cuz usually the price goes down fast after season), or I should go with the Anser?

Waiting online for advice.

Thx guys.

I'm about a 15 HDCP probably (getting one soon) and I prefer the Anser to the G30. Just me, though. What shaft are on the two of them? That will help.

What I have found with drivers, is that not every driver suits everyone. I just bought the G30 myself but tried several other drivers too.  I had originally thought I was going to get the Taylormade SLDR but when I hit it on the launch monitor it wasn't for me plus I didn't really like the feel of it. I also tried 3 different G30's and one would actually have hurt my game, lol. Then there are different shafts and of course the different lofts.  That's why there are so many used clubs, I think, because people just go buy them and then find they are not working for them.  You could get lucky, I love my G30 and I find it is very forgiving on less than centre face hits. Sounds like a good deal too.

      I think you're saying it's preposterous to think that the areas on this club are anything like what's shown here: 30mm toward the toe or heel loses only 5% distance? Highly, highly doubtful. So a guy who hits the ball there and normally hits the ball about 250… will hit it instead about 238. By missing the sweet spot by about 1.2 inches? Highly, highly doubtful. Heck, the high heel barely gets into the red, and orange is only "up to" 10%! @M2R, I've never heard of "Ask Golf Nut" but I'm dubious of his claims in the video and really, really dubious of what's on his site: "Why AskGolfNut Is the Most Trusted Data-Driven Golf Resource". Hmmmmmm.

      So the question was posed today by some of my friends.  Is a pitch mark the same as a divot?  I thought NO, but they argued if your ball lands in another player's divot (made by club during a swing) this was the same as a pitch mark, i.e. the ball mark made when the ball lands

      Original definition use to or still is how far offline you hit it. It might be better to think of it as consistency in retaining favorable launch conditions to optimize distance.   That heat map showed a gigantic 0-3% loss in ball speed. That is absurd. The true 100% sweet spot is tiny for all clubs. Good luck telling the difference if the sweet spot is under 3% in a sizable area. Especially considering variation in launch angle, spin, and outdoor weather.
