Caddyshack, I was in the same boat as you where in back in Sept. when the 10 series just came out. I previously had the tour edge bazookas ( super game improvment) I was feeling a need to upgrade, I didn't real have to but once it was in my head, it became a losing battle with the tour edges. Anyways I demoed both the I and the G fromt he 10 series. The I thought the G's head was to big and felt like a super game pimprovement iron, disn't feel like I was upgrading from the tour edges. So then I tried the I's and the head was a bit to small for me felt to much like a blade to me. So my fitter said try the I5's and I did and they where a perfect match for me, they kinda sit right in the middle of the 2 G deries clubs. I am not sure if you can still get them new or not, but if you can and before you buy take a look at them, you might be surprised.

Does the DSG on the CG12, only come on the club that rusts? Or can you get it in chrome or black pearl

I believe the 2 week rule for reservations only applies during the winter months , when the prices are higher. I think they act like the rest of florida golf and charge more during the northern cold months, for people like us making treks down. Not that disney has a quiet time.

Mine was not the X hot, just the x version. I got mine just as the x hot's where coming out last year, so I am not sure if it was an 06 or 07 to be honest. But it was the model that was just before the x hot

I was in your same spot about a month ago. I had a callaway x 3wood. I loved it off the tee but I could never get it off the deck. So I was going to florida earlier this month for a golf trip, and went and tried the g10 3 wood, so I bought it with the pro launch red shaft, and it was significantly better than my callaway. So I am very happy with the Ping. I know when I posted the same question a while back others stated they could not hit the callaway off the deck either. Not sure if my post helps you at all, other than a vote for the ping

Thanks crafty, thats what I was thinking. I had an aldila nvs shaft on my old original sasquatch driver and this never happened. It started with the G10. I just wanted to confirm my thoughts and didn't want to sound like an idiot when I brought my club to golfsmith and ask to be put on the monitor.

I am not sure if this should be in the equipment or swing sections, so mods if need to be moved please do so. First off I am not a very accomplished golfer but I hold my own for how much I play. I got a Ping G10 10.5 * driver last fall, and have only played with it a few times due to the chicago weather. But I just got back from a long weekend in florida, where I golfed 5 times. Now my question is I am getting no roll at all off of my drives, and most times rolling a few feet backwards from where it landed. Now granted I am hiting it consistantly 235-250 straight, so I am not really complaining but would like to get some roll out of it, ball actually drops straight down. This is the only club in my bag this happens to, I have the ping g10 3 wood and it doesn't happen to this club (but has a different shaft) Now the driver is equipped with the V2 high launch shaft, is this the reason for the no roll or backspin, or is there some other reason. Thanks for any help as to what part of the equipment or swing is causing this, as I am not versed enough to know yet. I am happy with the driver but as I progress I would like to see some roll, so if it is the shaft may have to switch it out or something. If it helps its a stiff shaft and my ss is around 98 mph. Thanks

Well we just got back. and it was a great trip. The Disney courses where a bit disappointing, especially if I would of paid full price for them. I would have to say the Osprey was my favorite then Palm then Magnolia. Panther lake at OCN was a GREAT track by far one of my most favorite courses I have played. It was in great shape, and just an all around fun track. Southern Dunes was fun also and a value at $70 with a cart.

I decided to go with a G10 3 wood with the pro alloy red shaft.

those that are suggesting the r7 are you saying last years or the new CGB one. Price wise I hope your suggesting last years model. LOL

I am confirmed for the magnolia and the osprey on Friday the 8th. Need to call tomorrow and book the palm for Saturday the 9th. The green fees are normally $169 due to the vacation club getting them for $89 a round. So it really makes it a hard deal to pass up. I didn't really want to play 3 disney courses but at this price I survive, and considering it will probably be below zero at home, I'll live with it. Thanks again for all the suggestions, after I return I will comment on each track.

Thanks that was my first choice was the g10 4 wood, but none of my local GS or Golf galaxies carry it, they say its a special order. Where as they have 3 and 5's on the rack.

Thanks Guys, going to the golfsmith tonight and see what I like if not I will check the other suggestions. Its middle of winter so no big rush except for the florida golf trip the first week of Feb. But if I don't have a new 3 wood by then no biggie.

We have one here in the Western burbs of Chicago, and it is a great alternative when its below zero outside. And a long as your swinging the clubs thats a good thing in my opinion. I agree with the above comments. Fairly accurate, chipping is a bit odd, because you can't chip as you would outside. The only real complaint I have is the putting. Its nearly impossible to hole a putt. The one by me has a gimmie range of 6 ft I think, but your puting against a wall, from 11ft away fromt he wall so its very different. But go have fun and enjoy

Thanks for the replies, still undecided. Gapwedge can you still get those new or do I have to look for a used one.
