To this point, I’ve heard great things about their shafts and looked forward to putting it in my bag. At this point PING remains about the only major equipment manufacturer that still produces their own shaft for their clubs rather than relying on a third party offering. This was a little different for me as I have not played a PING driver before. I received it with a 10.5 degree head and the standard PING TFC 419D stiff shaft. Read on to find out exactly what Turbulators are, how they work, and whether they lead to a driver that’s worth putting into your bag.įor the purpose of this review, I received the standard (not SFTech or LSTech) version of the G30 Driver. What you will find, and what’s not on any other driver currently available, are “Turbulators.” Also, you aren’t going to find any movable or sliding weights on this club that will let you fine tune the club’s center of gravity. The company was among the last to go to adjustable hosels as standard for their drivers, and even at this point there are other hosels that are much more advanced and allow for more settings. Known more as a traditional company, it isn’t often that their clubs have technology not seen on other clubs. With the G30 driver, PING has their most radical product offering to date. While some of that still holds true, the lines are becoming more and more blurred and it isn’t uncommon to see the better player, including the likes of Bubba Watson, with the “G” series driver in the bag. The “i” series has typically been viewed as the line for the better player, while the “G” series is more for the weekend warrior. While there have been options such as the Anser driver or the short lived K series, most of PING’s products are either part of the “i” series or “G” series. Like many companies, PING has a couple of different driver lines, each aimed at a different group of golfers. Part of that may be due to the fact that one of the longest players on the PGA Tour, Bubba Watson, is a member of their staff. Over the last few years, PING drivers have been gaining more and more popularity.
