Best Golf Clubs Of 2010 Part 5 - Wedges

I think it is possible in that it could be even more forgiving and with some clever internal weight adjustment go a little further but Ping unfortunately seems to have increased their price greatly from what I found by as much as 20%. So if you are looking for a new driver, you must consider the G15 because it was the Golf Digest's Editor's choice but if you are a current G10 owner, keep on with it till a later date to upgrade to the G15. There was only one equal to the Ping G15 and that is the TaylorMade R9 460. 2009 was like a cold winter where the worst of things have happened.
