Ping Tisi tec 8.5 Golf Drivers - Reviews

On 2004-09-06, Pingman10 rated this Ping Tisi Tec 8.5 a 2...(4293)



Purchase: I bought this driver on Ebay for $99 plus $27 express shipping to Canada. I know they've come down in price significantly now.
Pros: At first I really liked this driver because I was hitting it longer than my previous Nike 350cc and with a slight fade. So I would just aim it down the left side and it would hit the fairway. Since then I'm missing a lot more fairways however.
Cons: I can't get any accuracy out of this driver anymore. If you buy this driver with the stock stiff shaft you're going to be buying a regular flex shaft. I believe that's the reason I'm missing so many fairways. When I hit it off the tee now, I have no idea where it's going. I tried another driver with a real stiff shaft and I immediately started hitting more fairways and I could work the ball any way I wanted.
Quality: It's a Ping driver so the quality is very good. The only thing I don't like is the quality of the shaft. Some people don't like the plastic hosel that Ping uses either.

Review Summary: I think anyone considering buying this club would be better off upgrading to an Si3. The shafts are better and the Si3 can be had at the same price that I paid for my Tisi Tec now. I was happy with this driver at first, but now I'm a little dissapointed.

Purchase: Bought this one on Ebay
Pros: I had the original Tisi and moved up to the Tec. It has a more pentrating flight and seems to be more accurate. It improved my distance 5 yards or so.
Cons: They prevailing pattern is striaght to a slight draw. It is hard to fade if you have to. Also pricey. But worth it.
Quality: As with all ping products. This is excellent.

Review Summary: This is probably the hardest driver I've ever had to hit a BAD shot with. Can't go wrong with it.
