What are turbulators on the Ping G30 driver?

Turbulators are raised aerodynamic ridges molded into the crown of the Ping G30 driver, positioned along the top edge of the clubhead toward the face. Their purpose is to reduce aerodynamic drag during the downswing, helping the club maintain speed for potentially greater driving distance.

What loft options does the Ping G30 driver offer?

The Ping G30 driver was available in lofts of 9° and 10.5° at retail, and Ping's trademark custom-fitting program offered additional loft options at no upcharge. The driver also uses Ping's Trajectory Tuning+ adjustable hosel, which allows golfers to add or subtract up to one degree of loft from the stated setting.

What shafts come with the Ping G30 driver?

The Ping G30 driver shipped with stock shaft options including the Ping TFC 419D and the Alta 55, and Ping offered a wide selection of custom aftermarket shafts through its fitting program without additional charge for most options. This no-upcharge custom fitting matrix has been a hallmark of Ping's business model.
