Have you hit the new PING G10 3 Fairway Wood?

Question

I am looking to buy a Ping G10 3 Fairway wood. Does the 3 wood (15.5) differ from the Strong 3 wood (14)?

Is the strong 3 wood harder to hit?

Thanks

Answer 1

There is a difference between the strong and the regular 3-wood.  I'll answer this from my own experience.  I played a strong 3-wood for several months and was not a huge fan.  First of all, from the fairway you will get more distance with it being slightly harder to hit, however I've always believed that any shot thats too long for a 15.5 is too long to be hitting period.  Off the tee you will get more distance, but with how large and easy to hit drivers are becoming, you're better off with 460cc than 200cc.  I would stick with the 15.5 be glad that you're not tempted to get home in two, over water from 260 out.
