Although he could discuss the durability of the Pings in his review now.

The bag fell down a 20' cliff. Lost 20 golf balls (brand frickin new pro V1's, and TP5x!) I was lucky to find everything else, it was the damn thicket. I haven't examined the PING's yet. I loaded up at headed to the club house after I found the R1 in two pieces I had enough.

 

Didn't know I was going rock climbing today.

 

I'll be using the 3 wood till something comes along.

 

It was the stock shaft in S.

 

I was kind of looking for a reason to get a new driver, so I guess I got my wish.

Not sure what the stock was. But mine is the Adila RIP Phenom in 55 R.

 

Probably too light for you. But if you want it. Just pm me. I have to keep the head. It has sentimental value from a trip.

Thanks CG2!! After further investigation the head has a crack in it. Appreciate the offer!

No Epic... too much carbon fiber.

 

 

- Alan

 

Interesting - you prefer the turbulators on the Ping driver over the little bit of visible carbon fiber on the Epic? Not judging, just wondering.

 

If you've never hit one, put some blinders on and give it a crack -- it might change your mind!

No can do. I want to like their stuff, just can't.

 

Plus, Bubba sold me on the G30. The matte finish is what I like.

Also, I really wanted the new TM driver (M1/M2) but I can't do carbon fiber, way too much for me.

I could probably like the Epic or

The M1/M2 but I'd have to get them painted.

 

Yeah the R1 looked like an early 90's Toyota Trophy Truck, but it was starting to get to me. Solid color is a must.

Be careful what you wish for. I always wanted to hit the draw. Finally achieved it, but then came the "snap hooks"

Alan, if your Ping irons are damaged, just bring them to a Ping dealer. They'll send them off to Ping and they will send your clubs back looking like new. I worked at a golf store and a customer came in that had been in a serious car accident. His Pings were really bad off. Two weeks later they came back with new shafts and even repainted.
