Ping Si3 9* Golf Drivers - Reviews

On 2003-06-18, Scot Schlund rated this Ping Si3 9* a 5...(1562)



Purchase: I started playing Ping about 4 years ago buying a TISI 8.5* with a Harrison 3.5 FL Firm shaft, 4 up, 2 closed. At a 12.5 index, I need all the forgiveness I can get. I demoed the Si3 at my local club this spring and fell in love. I got fitted and ordered it 9* silver with a R flex UST Proforce 65 shaft. Price was $390 with the shaft upgrade.
Pros: I didn't think Ping could improve on the TISI or TEC but they did. Shot dispersion with the Si3/UST combo is much tighter and longer. I constantly can carry 240 yds now. I just started playing with the Titelist Pro V1x I have pushed 300 yds on several occasions. For some unexplained reason, this club seems to find the sweet spot consistantly. With my old TISI, I had more heeled or toed shots by comparison. Also, I live in Phoenix and love the Ping service and fitting. Go Ping, you won't regret it if you get fitted.
Cons: This driver is as good as it gets. I tried Titleist and Taylor Made. Nice clubs but no comparison to Ping if you get fitted with the correct shaft and Ping loft combo. Now I need to work on my short game.
Quality: The club's black finish and shape has a more pleasing appearance that the TISI and the Gold UST shaft complements the look. Quality is exceptional. The feel and the sound off the forged face is more solid that the TISI. Plus, Ping is owned and built in the USA.

Review Summary: What else can I say. I have been so pleased with Ping products I now have a full bag of their equipment. Price, fitting, quality, playability ... you can't beat Ping. Just don't by off the shelf. Go to your local club and get fitted! It will shave strokes off of your game.

Went to the range yesterday to practice. Took the new 9.5* driver to test it out. I hit it a lot better than I figured I would with that factory insta
