Ping – A look inside the G30 Fairway Woods with crown turbulators

September 15, 2014 – Next to the G30 and G30 SF Tec drivers you will find at the golf shop the new Ping G30 adjustable Fairway Woods, with crown turbulators. Take a look inside them, and discover why they are longer and more forgiving than its predecessors.

Ping-Fairway-G30-inside-3

Faster ball speeds and greater distance come from a larger face made of a uniform-thickness Carpenter 475 steel, creating a thin but strong hitting surface that maximises face deflection (Carpenter 475 steel is 44% stronger than 17-4 stainless steel.)

Weight saved by thinning the face was redistributed to optimise the centre of gravity (CG) and elevate MOI for added forgiveness.Launch angle and spin can be fine-tuned by adding or subtracting up to 1 degree of loft with Ping’s five-setting Trajectory Tuning+ Technology, utilising a lightweight hosel that offers adjustments of + 0.6°, + 1°, – 0.6°, and – 1°.

Crown turbulators create a captured appearance with the ball, and help with aim and alignment to inspire confidence.

Ping-Fairway-G30-inside-2

The high-balance-point TFC 419F shaft has a CG closer to the grip end, promoting a simultaneous increase in energy, momentum and inertia for longer, straighter results.
