Ping G5 RRP £249(g)
DESIGN
TEC TALK
The G5 offers improved weight distribution for a better longer flight. Moving 8g of weight away from low stress areas of both face and crown allows a lower centre of gravity and reduces spin rates for more distance. An offset version is also available.
PERFORMANCE
The G5 offers a great feel off the face with a very consistent ball strike. It produces a good ball flight and excellent "hang time." It's also very forgiving on off-centre hits.
