Summer's New Golf Clubs

        This spring marked a multitude of new golf equipment from some of the best manufacturers in the market. Some manufacturers saved the best for last including Ping, Adams, Callaway, and Wilson.
Ping plans on releasing their new driver the G20 later this summer. What to expect from this new driver is a good blend of forgiveness and power. Heavier than the previous G15 mode, helping add more force at impact for power shots off the tee. The face of the driver is expected to be extended to add forgiveness on those hits that don't meet the center of the face.

        Adams also plans on adding a new driver to their line up, the 9088 driver. The 9088 is apart of their lightweight series, adhering to the theory that the lighter the club the easier it is to swing and the better the swing path becomes and eventually better swing speeds. Set to release this summer it weighs under 300 grams one of their lightest golf clubs to date.

Callaway plans on updating a few of their favorite golf clubs from this season including the Diablo Octane driver and D.A.R.T. putter. Both these will be coming out with new limited edition designs donned with a new coat of black pain. They also plan on resurrecting Ernie Els putter from his win at the South African Open, the Odyssey PT 10 putter. This putter is an updated version of the PT 92 which was released last October. These will also be enjoying a limited run on the retail market.

        Wilson plans on launching a new set of irons, the FG Tour V2. A succession of the popular FG TOur irons. Already played by PGA Tour pro Kevin Streelman. Not a whole lot has changed in the irons besides a few updates for better transitions and a slightly less offset design.
As the golf clubs become available I will update their links to a trusted online retailer GolfClubs.com.
