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.

      PRGR Launch Monitor

      By Clemsonfan · Posted

      Is it? I bought the Stack radar to replace my PRGR based on what Stack told me! When I am swinging for speed, the PRGR would miss 50%-80% of my backswings due to a higher speed. The stack seldom misses those- at least for me.

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      By Clemsonfan · Posted

      As an analyst by nature, I would like to compare the scores under both systems. It is something we can easily do if we have the data. I actually thought the new system was less fair to those whose game was on the decline - like mine! Old: Best 10 of last 20 scores with the .96 multiplier. Course handicap excluded course rating and overall par. New: Best 8/20. Course handicap includes course rating -par. My understanding is Stableford caps scores at Net double bogey like stroke play. If so, handicap should be slower to rise because you are only using 8 versus 10 scores. If I am missing something, I am curious enough to  want to understand what that may be. My home course tees that I play are 72.1/154 now. My best score out here is 82. When my game started to decline, my handicap didn’t budge for 13 rounds because of good scores in my first 8! I know I am an anomaly but my handicap has increased almost 80% in the past few years (with only a few rounds this year). For a few months I knew I was losing every bet because my game was nowhere near my handicap. I suspect I have steamrolled a few nuances but that shouldn’t matter much. When I have modeled this with someone playing the same tees and course, one good round, or return to form, will immediately reduce the handicap by some amount.
