Custom-engineered with weight closer to the heel to produce a right-to-left shot bend (Straight-Flight Technology) and steer the ball back into the fairway. Inspired by an approach called biomimicry, PING engineers analyzed the dragonfly's intricate wing pattern to design ultra-thin crown sections for extreme CG and maximized MOI, creating PING's longest, most forgiving driver to date.
Being an absolute equipment junkie, I was approached by GolfDiscount.com to write reviews and share my findings with you. Having been chosen to write a number of Taylormade product reviews for GolfWRX.com I felt that this is an excellent opportunity to put my knowledge to use.
The Takeaway
This is the third in a series of G Series Drivers. The G SF Tec (Straight Flight Technology) positions the weight closer to the heel to help produce a right-to-left shot shape and steer the ball back into the fairway. It also incorporates all the brand new technology found on the neutral G Series Driver.
Who's It For?
The G SF Tec is designed for those players that have a tendency to have an uncontrolled fade shot shape. A slightly closed face angle, paired with the addition of slightly higher loft choices will help straighten the ball out more so than the other two G Series Drivers.
Final Take
As expected, the G SF Tec produced a definite draw from my natural draw swing. With the additional half a degree of loft it produced a higher more swinging shot shape. Definitely not a driver for my type of golf swing. This is more suited for those that have fade to minor slice tendencies and need a slight more elevation to their tee shots.
