I was out playing golf with my buddy Dino last weekend and I noticed he had added this Ping G15 to his bag. I really like the Ping G10 and couldn't wait to hit it. However, I did wait until the first par 5 to take a rip.
The first thing I noticed was how light it was, mostly because the club head is much bigger than the G10 (giving it 15% more MOI). It felt like I was holding a pool cue. Usually with light drivers, I tend to over-swing them, thus I tried to focus on my tempo. The ball jumped off of the face and rocketed high in the sky and landed softly in the damp fairway.
I took a few more swings throughout the day because I wanted to feel an off center hit. I definitely got great feedback when I missed it, even though they had a lot less side spin then I notice with the G10 and flew a lot further.
I would recommend the G15 driver for those golfers looking for a very forgiving driver that is easy to swing. For you lower handicappers with more consistent swings that like to work the ball, I would stick with the G10.

[...] This is a driver that distance junkies are going to love. I recommend this driver for all golfers. However, for you higher handicappers, there are much better game-improving drivers out there like the Ping G15. [...]
