Ping I15 = GOAT driver

• ZWICK 4 PREZ

  

  If you play a draw, this is the best driver ever made. The flight was a little higher than I was used to, but was consistently 10-15 yards further than my G5. I prolly won't even swap out shafts and just stick with the stock TFC 700d shaft.
  I can't wait for a warmer day to hit some more outside and get a more accurate distance.
  The G15 def has a hotter feel off the face but was a very inconsistent ball flight with a draw.
  
  Hands down the best driver I've hit to date.

  I still like the way my Big Bertha II plays. Plus it doesn't look stupid like most of today's drivers. The iI5 looks good though, maybe when I win the lottery.

  I don't play a draw. I play a power fade.
  
  From what I've seen and heard it looks like a good club though.

  No shame in that. I'm unfortunately not good enough to use old equipment and compete with the big dogs.

  Hit some different clubs last week under the bubble in Cols. Not sure if that was one of them but I did hit a set of Ping Irons on demo up there and I hit them well. Its a little strange in the bubble, makes an odd sound but it was worth swinging the clubs a few times.

  I'm sticking with my new Dymo. I already hit it 10 yards further than my Sasquatch, and I doubt switching to the I15 will add even more distance. Not to mention I don't like using Pings.

  I'd use a Nike but I'd hate to have to wear ear plugs when I golf.

  ^^no kidding, they sound like you're hitting at the batting cages.
  
  I hit the TM Burner, gives me distance, ball flight is wicked high though (9.5 degree). Probably a lot more to do with my swing than the driver. :/

  I can't wait for it to thaw out so I can play again. Last summer I made some good progress in my game.

  I play a banana hook...the equipment is the least of my problems...

  I normally have a slight fade in my drive or I hit it dead straight, however last year I lost all control and it turned into a mild slice. I used my trusty 4 wood on the tee for the rest of the year and hit it straight 215-230. I have a cleveland launcher 400 and need to pick something up. I tried the burner last year and it went straight for me when I hit it into the screen. I also tried some cobras that seemed to do well for me to. I have had my launcher for 3 seasons and each season I have hit it worse, I am only hitting it 220-250 depending, usually I am around 230.
  
  So after all that i have a question, what will one of these "draw" drivers do for me?
  
  Edit: Also I think it may have to do something with the kickpoint on my driver's shaft. I have a quick swing and my 4 wood, it is like 14 degrees has a stiff steel dynamic gold shaft. My driver has whatever stiff alida or fuji gold shaft it came with. Not sure if reshafting my driver with a steel shaft would help.

  Looks like the I15 is the editors choice at golf digest for drivers this year. It must be the GOAT.

  This thread has gotten me anxious, this winter can't end soon enough!
  
  I picked up a Titleist 909 D2 late last season. The best distance and best sound of any driver I've hit. Would recommend it to anyone.

  I wish I could golf well. Unfortunately, I suck. I refuse to pay for lessons. All I know is my stuff starts out straight but ends up going way right.
