PING introduces G range of drivers, fairways and irons for 2016

By: Golf Shake | Mon 11 Jan 2016


PING have launched a new range of clubs with a focus on providing maximum forgiveness with as much speed as possible for today's golfer.

PING's G Series includes three driver options -- standard, SF Tec (Straight Flight Technology) and LS Tec (Low-Spin Technology)  in addition to  three fairway woods (standard, SF Tec and Stretch), hybrids and irons. 

In what PING describe as new product category they have launch the G Crossover  - al club that offers hybrid like distance with iron like control.  All new products can be pre-ordered from the 11th January 2016 at PING-authorised golf shops around the world.

PING G Series Technology

The most visible innovation on the G driver is the newly designed crown, which utilises Dragonfly Technology. The new tech has been created by PING engineers to move the weight  low and back in the clubhead for optimal CG placement, making it both the longest and most forgiving PING driver ever. Quite a statement follwoing the success of the G 30.

The new technology has been inspired by the complex design of a dragonfly’s wings, the G driver’s crown utilises external weight-saving support structures and is both the lightest and thinnest that PING have ever manufactured.

The G series also boast s the Stretch 3; a larger headed driving 3-wood with a deeper, less-lofted face. This is designed for those golfers seeking a super hot and long 3 wood or driver alternative.  The Strech 3 features the same technological advancements that can be found in the regular G fairway woods (Carpenter 455 steel face, cascading sole design and a uniquely thin crown) and increases ball speed and generates less spina s result golfers will gaindistance and accuracy. The new G range of fairway woods also includes an SF Tec version which utilises a more heel-side centre of gravity in order to provide shot bend correction.

The new G iron utilises the same revolutionary COR-Eye™ Technology found in GMax, with a deep CG providing more dynamic loft and a strategic approach to the distribution of weight in the heel, toe and hosel locations to provide unmatched forgiveness. Golfers will be able to benefit from increased distance with a higher max shot height and steeper landing angle so that shots hit and hold greens. Upgraded aesthetics include the contrast of a light satin blast finish and mirror polished back, as well as a clean hosel-to-shaft transition through the use of a ferrule.

The new G series hybrids now also incorporate Turbulator Technology for improved ball capture and inspiration at address, with additional improvements including the use of Carpenter 455 steel in order to save weight in the face and crown, as well as a rougher face for higher friction and reduced spin.

PING's news Dragonfly Technology allows for a thinner crown which means that weight can be re-allocated within the head to move the CG even lower and deeper. This in turn maximises the MOI - a key for optimum forgiveness. The new G Series driver also boasts repositioned turbulators to further delay air flow separation prior to impact. additional advances in technology included on the head arrive in the form of Vortec Technology which improves clubhead aerodynamics by minimising wake turbulence for faster clubhead speed and stability.

  • Lofts 9 °& 10.5° in standard and LS Tec heads, and 10° & 12° in SF Tec head (adjustable +/- 0.6° or 1°)
  • Std. Length 45.75”, D3, 206g (standard), D4, 207.5g (LS Tec), D1, 203g (SF Tec), 460cc
  • Stock graphite shaft: PING Alta 55 (SR, R, S, X); Optional shafts (Std. length 45.25”): Tour 65 & Tour 80 (R, S, X)
  • RRP £349

G Fairway Woods

PING G Series Fairway Wood

A lower leading edge sits closer to the ground which raises the impact position on the face to make getting the ball airborne easier. The properties of the Carpenter 455 steel face allow for a thinner, variable-thickness face, which increases flexing at impact to deliver increased ball speeds and higher launch through improved roll-radius consistency. A new cascading sole design engages more of the structure at impact, resulting in a large springing effect for faster ball speeds. Like with the driver, a thinner crown means discretionary weight has been used to move the CG lower and further back, making it easier to get the ball airborne and launch it higher.

  • Lofts 3W (14.5°), 5W (17.5°) & 7W (20.5°) in standard head, 3W (16°) & 5W (19°) in SF Tec head and 3W (13°) in Stretch
  • Stock graphite shaft: PING Alta 65 (SR, R, S, X); Optional shafts: Tour 65 & Tour 80 (R, S, X)
  • RRP £220

PING G Hybrids

PING G Series Hybrid

Through a similar use of a cascading sole design and a Carpenter 455 steel face, the G hybrids enable more face flexing for increased ball speeds. Combined with un-painted grooves in the middle of the face, the addition of turbulators improves alignment and inspires confidence by providing improved ball capture at address.

  • Available 17°, 19°, 22°, 26°, 30°
  • Stock graphite shaft: PING Alta 70 (SR, R, S, X); Optional shafts: Tour 90 (R, S, X)
  • RRP £180

PING Crossover

PING G Series Crossover

With its introduction defining an innovative new category, the G Crossover provides golfers the distance of a hybrid with the control and accuracy of an iron. An iron-style Carpenter 455 steel face coupled with a tiered internal sole maximises both trajectory control and distance, while extreme heel-toe weighting expands perimeter weighting to provide hybrid-like forgiveness.

  • Available 18°, 21°, 24°
  • Stock graphite shaft: PING Alta (SR, R, S, X); Optional shafts: Tour 90 (R, S, X), PING AWT 2.0 (R, S, X)
  • RRP £180

PING G Irons

PING G Series Iron

Featuring PING’s revolutionary COR-Eye™ Technology, the new G iron’s thinner face facilitates more flexing which results in additional carry with a higher max height for increased stopping power. The newly designed cavity structure houses the concealed Custom Tuning Port that connects to the sole, enabling each iron’s centre of gravity to be moved lower and further back for extreme forgiveness. Also new in the G iron is the Ascending Weight Technology (AWT) 2.0 shaft which provides improved distance and accuracy with long irons and more control with short irons and wedges.

  • Available 4-9, PW, UW, SW, LW
  • Stock steel shaft: PING AWT 2.0 (R, S, X)
  • Stock graphite shaft: PING CFS Graphite (65 SR, 70 R, 80 S)
  • RRP: £92 per club w/steel shaft; £104 per club w/graphite shaft
