The PING G20 driver doesn't seem to be a revolutionary new club, but it does improve on its predecessor, the PING G20 driver, in several ways. For example, it has a higher Moment of Inertia and its larger face is more forgiving. The large hitting surface also promotes more power. External, non-adjustable weighting that moves the center of gravity down and back helps promote a higher launch and lower spin rates. The club head is heavier than that of the G15, and it delivers more force at impact. And, the lightweight, 45.75-inch stock shaft has a high balance point and flexible tip to promote faster club head speeds.
It all translates into more distance off the tee. On an overall basis, the design of the driver can help average golfers play better. Golf clubs sets are worth buying. Along the lines of consistency, when you hit the sweet spot of the large face of the G20, you’re rewarded with a unique sound. It’s not like the traditional PING ‘ping’ but more of a ‘crack’ mixed with the ‘ping.’ I’ve described it as a ‘thwack’ before but it’s more of a ‘pinging crack’ which is something you need to hear for yourself. As long as you’re near the center of the face you’re going to hear some iteration of this sound but when you catch it on the screws? You know it and the best part is that you want to hear it again and again.
This makes the PING G20 slightly addictive but in a good way. I found my most consistent miss to be a block or a push. While the shaft is the same length as the shaft of the K15 that I tested last year, I found that my swing had to be more consistent with the G20 and that you can’t fully go after a shot. This may be due to the placement of weight above the center point of the shaft which could be problematic in helping get the club head squared at impact if you don’t have a consistent swing. I think the best tempo to unleash the full potential of this driver is one that is medium-fast tempo, or an 8 on a scale of 1-10.
