Denne køllen kommer mange til å få som
favorittkølle
28.01 Ping:
Meget nyttig kølle fra Ping
De aller fleste tror/mener det er
macho og tøft å bruke en driver med liten loft. Trackman og andre hjelpemidler
viser at det er helt feil.
Nå kommer Ping med en meget anvendbar multi-metal Rapture 3-wood som med hell
kan brukes som driver av svært mange spillere. Spesielt når det kreves
presisjon. Slik tilfellet er på mange norske baner hvor ofte hullene er skåret
ut mellom bergnabber og i tett skog.
Den nye køllen er en sterk 3'er spoon ute på fairway og kan med hell brukes når
det er ballplassering slik at du får en god lie når du skal ha et langt
transportslag eller skal nå inn på greenen på et langt par 4 hull eller et kort
par 5 hull.
For mange blir dette et "must have" produkt.
Golfsiden har ikke fått testet køllen ennå, en Ping står for kvalitet og har
alltid gjort det. Da er resten smak og behag, om man liker å se på den med andre
ord.
Hva er da en "test" verdt foretatt av en glad amatør.
Prisen er en krone under 4.000. Men, som alle vet, kvalitet koster. Bare se på
biler.
Her er pressemeldiningen:
PING launches hot-faced, multi-metal Rapture
3-wood as driver alternative
PHOENIX – PING today unveiled the 13-degree Rapture 3-wood for golfers looking
for a versatile driver alternative or hotter-faced 3-wood. The multi-material,
adjustable design combines a Ti 8-1-1 titanium body, high-strength beta-titanium
face and dense tungsten sole plate for increased ball speed and lowered spin,
leading to more distance and accuracy.
The Rapture 3-wood is now available for pre-ordering from PING-authorised golf
shops.
“The weighting properties of titanium and tungsten provide our engineers a lot
of opportunities to improve performance,” said John A. Solheim, PING Chairman &
CEO. “The high-strength beta-titanium material allowed us to really focus on
creating a hotter face that yields ball speeds and distance unlike any we’ve
seen in fairway woods. The tungsten positions the weight extremely low so we can
optimise the CG position. It has a taller face and deeper head profile, so
golfers will have complete confidence with the Rapture. We think golfers will
really appreciate this unique combination of technology to improve their
performance. It’s extremely long off the tee. We’re excited to get it in
golfers’ hands.”
A tall, extreme-variable-thickness face made of high-strength beta titanium (30%
stronger than standard titanium) enlarges the hitting surface for increased
forgiveness while accelerating ball speed to generate distance. Almost 25% of
head mass is isolated in the tungsten sole plate, which positions the CG much
lower in the Ti 8-1-1 head, further improving energy transfer for higher ball
speed and less spin. The matte-black 219cc head has a deep profile for inspiring
confidence. The standard 13 degrees of loft can easily be adjusted plus or minus
½ degree using PING’s Trajectory Tuning technology. The lightweight adjustable
hosel has the same outer diameter and mass of PING’s traditional fixed hosels
and provides the benefits of adjustability without sacrificing the performance
that’s often lost in clubs with larger hosel designs.
PING’s proprietary TFC 949 graphite shaft promotes an increase in momentum and
inertia for improved energy transfer, resulting in faster ball speeds and
greater distance. Solheim said his company’s unique high-balance-point shafts
have been key contributors to maximising performance in its drivers and fairway
woods. “In the TFC 949, for example, its high balance point enabled us to
engineer a standard length of 43½ inches while increasing the mass of the head.
With the same amount of effort, the golfer will be able to deliver a lot more
power.”
