But I'm somehow getting this with single digit launch angles and 3800 rpm backspin. That seems suboptimal

My stupid sim doesn't show that, only see it when I take lessons

I hit 15-20 like this with 6-10 launch angles and 210ish carry

https://imgur.com/a/HPFgMvy

Half my drives bounced off the screen and almost hit me so I probably won't go here anymore

Do you know if you're hitting it low on the face? Low on the face results in low launch and high spin, and gives you much less distance than middle and above.

Yes and that is what sucks about Ping

I'm still messing around with ball placement (toe vs heel) and teeing it higher

Supposedly the new Cobra Max-K has much better high low face dispersion in general though

That's how every Ping driver has felt forever. You either love it or hate it. I love how stable they feel.

Same. It's also incredible at keeping spin in a tight range even if you hit it all over the face. Played a 430 Max in 2024 but the 10k beat it out this year in testing, especially on the course. Just straighter and does better at keeping misses playable.

I play with a guy in his 60s who uses the g430 10k with nemesys 55

He tees it up high and super forward and absolutely nukes it

Last time at the range he was carrying it past the longest flag at 230

I really have to get out there and try one of these. My Big Bertha is okay (and was free) but the Ping hype is real. I somehow doubt that any equipment can really add much distance unless you're playing really old clubs but I could be wrong.

You probably have a non-conforming face that's ultra hot

Rory's driver was recently banned because of this

It's a compliment because it assumes that you beat the fuck off the ball

You mentioned having irons issues too. I would take a steel ruler to confirm that your faces aren't impacted on any. This is a known issue with older titleist irons for high speed swingers

my irons are Ping i500s from a few years ago. I don't particularly like them and the heads fall off randomly. I played with a dude last fall with g-series cavity backs and the same thing happened. something is off with the epoxy they use when assembling the clubs.

I carry my driver like 260-270. nothing crazy.

This is why I prefer Japanese brands for non-bladed irons now

All the American brands put stupid plastic emblems or have other weird design glitches trying to mask that it's a cavity back

Like Callaway advertising the ai200 as forged face and head, but there's a fucking plate screwed into the back of the head

I’m talking about the heads literally disconnecting from the shaft at impact. It’s happened to me twice and I’ve seen it happen to another guy with similar era Pings in the past 3 years

Those super forgiving Callaway drivers like BB have way too much draw bias and backspin, once your swing slightly resembles the correct sequence

Hm that might explain why I get almost no rollout. I carry about 200 currently, in the midst of a swing change.

You should definitely demo some lower spin/loft drivers with possibly stiffer flex shaft

Ping g430 lst or 10k or 440 max

Cobra Darkspeed/DS-Adapt Max-K or x

Callaway AI Smoke / Elyte Triple Diamond

Don't fuck with Titleist unless you get professionally fitted imo
