PING’s new G20 driver combines the best qualities from two of their drivers from last season, the K15 and G15. PING has a staunch following that borders on fanaticism yet they always offer clubs that may look ‘plain’ or ‘boring’ but lately their designs are slowly emerging from those shells while still maintaining their core values. If you’re interested in long, forgiving, powerful, and straight driver then you may want to read on because these are all qualities that have been taken from two previous drivers and put into one nice and neat package.
The new Wilson Staff DXi driver uses trajectory control to reduce spin and deliver soaring distance for both low and higher handicap players. The key is two high density tungsten rubber inserts that move the CG location further back as loft increases. Better players will prefer low loft options for the lower-spinning penetrating ball flight. Higher handicappers will opt for higher lofts for higher ball flights. Both options deliver one result: maximum distance.
Srixon have their eyes set firmly on the forgiving driver market best in catagory prize with the launch of the Srixon Z-RW.
In the lower lofts the periphial weighting sits towards the heel to help with trajectory and shot shaping, while in the higher lofts the weight is moved around to promote a straighter shot with less distance sapping slice and hook spin.
It is one of the lightest drivers on the market. This allows it to generate incredible clubhead speed.
The driver also features Wilson’s proprietary face thickness with an expanded sweetspot, a tungsten screw to move weight back to promote a higher ball flight and stability and an AXIVCore Super-Lite shaft.
Assisted by the Ping innovation of Straight Flight Technology (SF Tech), the Ping K15 places approximately 10% of the head mass into the heel of the club, helping to square the club face through the hitting zone for consistently straight tee shots.
The K15 is also able to offer distance gains by combining a large-profile, 460cc head, and a club face that is longer heel to toe. The MOI is sizeable for consistent performance and forgiveness across the hitting surface. This design positions the center of gravity low and back to generate high launch and low spin.

Following on from the original, award winning R11 driver, TaylorMade have achieved the impossible and improved on perfection! The R11S Driver has been increased to the maximum 460cc head size and comes with even more adjustability, allowing every golfer to fine tune each and every drive!
Hidden underneath a black, matte finish that looks like it was taken off a stealth fighter, the Ping i20 driver, the company's newest offering for better-players, is made using three different materials.
The body is cast from a titanium alloy that has been infused with aluminum to make it lighter. Ping engineers shifted the weight saved by blending the aluminum and titanium together and moved it into two tungsten pads located in the back sections of the sole.
Marty Jertson, Ping Golf's Senior Design Engineer, says moving the weight to those spots helps to improve the clubs moment of inertia and make it more resistant to twisting on off-center hits. Those weight pads also shift more of the head's overall weight away from the face, which helps to create a higher initial launch angle. Ping also says that the club produces less spin than its predecessor, the i15.
