With a slightly elongated face profile and high-technology mix of titanium body with tungsten weights, the V2 capitalizes on the clubfitters' holy grail of high launch, low spin. The Ping Rapture V2 driver does this with performance and style. Dual Tungsten weights do the job of keeping weight low and deep in the head, to help get the ball airborne. The Rapture V2 Driver's 460cc head is slightly elongated by extending the face height and aggressively sloping the crown. The thin face is precisely machined and plasma-welded to deliver higher ball speeds for greater distance.
I was able to test the V2 with the stock 939 shaft. Using a Bushnell Medalist rangefinder, I could closely approximate my distances. Overall, using a Bridgestone B-330S ball for control, I found the V2 to be about 5-8 yards longer on similarly struck drives up against Ping's G10 driver as golf clubs for sale. The loft on both drivers was 10.5 degrees and the flex was stiff on both. The mass properties of tungsten and titanium are optimized in the Rapture® V2™ Driver to create a high launching, lower spinning driver that delivers the performance expectedfrom a multi-metal design. The visible, dense tungsten weight pads in the back of the lightweight titanium head expand the perimeter
The sound off the tee was pleasing. Not a "tink" or hollow sound, but more of a solid quality sound. I found the cheap Ping V2 driver deliver tour leading classic blade looks, performance and shot control. Design updates include a new tour preferred satin finish, contemporary back design, cosmetics, and improved sole design in the MB." This is the first time that Titleist has given behind the scenes access to the tour validation process that takes place before every major launch.
