Dear bros,

Looking for a new driver now.

Will be testing these driver soon but would like to hear some comment about this 3 shortlisted driver.

How is the distance and forgiveness b/w these driver?

Doing some reading from Golf Digest too.

Thanks in advance! Very Happy

Friend was hitting miles with his 913d2 paired with tour ad bb 6s shaft. He won a 915d3 and put in his bb shaft into it. I noticed that the distance wasn't as long as his 913. Even he felt the same.

G30 seems to get very good reviews from my other friends. Long and forgiving. I did try it at the range and felt that it is definitely forgiving. Length seems to be long too. However, I have not had a game with it so can't comment much personally.

After having tried the 3 Drivers on different occasion and also with different shafts.

IMHO I feel that PING G30 is the longest and most forgiving driver amongst the 3 while on stock shaft but maybe it's just me as I just felt it's a eye sore addressing the huge head of the G30. That's just my take on it.

Given a choice to own one, I will sure go for the 915 D2 over the rest.

Owned a 913 D2 & 915 D3 w Fujikura Pro Stiff 53 and G30 w Stock shaft (Stiff)

Forgiveness-Definitely G30
Distance- I say about the same between G30 and D2. D3 a little shorter.
Workability (how easy to shape your shots)- 915 D3

G30 is the driver in my bag now Smile

Have fun.

Albeit the 915D3 is supposed to design to have higher launch and lower spin than its predecessor, it turned up that I could hit the 913D3 longer by about 10m (+/- 2m) ... I simply love the 913D3 and if one coupled it with the right "shaft", it would be a lethal combo ... Smile

Ping and TM drivers typically are more forgiving ... If u want more forgiving Titleist driver, go for the D2 version instead of the D3 (which is designed for lower spin and shot shaping) ...

i've just started using the R15 (changed from SLDR) and getting increased distance and more penetrating ball flight - more forgiving vs SLDR too.. with the right settings and shaft, it'll do wonders!

can't comment on the 915 or G30 as i haven't tried them, but a buddy who hit both his 915 and my R15 off the same hole, was rather impressed by it... R15 longer...
