Ping – A look inside the G30 Drivers with Turbulator Technology
September 8, 2014 – Ping has introduced the new G30 series putting emphasis on significantly increasing ball velocity and accuracy through a combination of advanced aerodynamics, plus new face designs and materials. Take a look inside the new G30 adjustable drivers with Turbulator Tecnology.
Turbulators on the crown of the G30 460cc Ti 8-1-1 head reduce aerodynamic drag, leading to faster clubhead speed and ball velocity for long, accurate drives. Turbulators also assist with aim and alignment.
The higher strength/weight ratio of the T9S face material allows for a thinner, hotter face and saves 4 grams of weight. The weight savings are allocated to help position the centre of gravity (CG) lower and farther back than any Ping driver to date, ensuring high launch and optimised spin with a high MOI.
The G30 SF Tec head promote a right-to-left ball flight for players whose shots typically end up right of the target. To optimise launch angle and spin, golfers can add or subtract up to 1 degree of loft using Trajectory Tuning+ Technology.
A high-balance-point TFC 419D shaft has a CG closer to the grip end, promoting a simultaneous increase in energy, momentum and inertia. The custom tuning port can accommodate a range of fitting weights and allows Ping to achieve the desired swing weight across a variety of proprietary and after-market shafts.
