Ping Rapture 460cc Ti Driver E-mail

The Rapture Driver combines titanium, carbon composite and innovative thinking to create a powerful and forgiving option off the tee. The visual technology of the composite crown design not only attracts attention, it pays off in performance. The 460cc driver features a visible, web-shaped titanium crown injected with lightweight composite into the web-shape area using a bladder mould. Discretionary weight from this area is re-distributed inside the club head to position the center of gravity for higher launch and lower spin. The composite is secured to ensure a strong, durable bond to the titanium head. By utilising the composite in the low stress areas of the crown, PING engineers re-positioned 20 grams of mass inside the club in the form of weight pads for higher launch and lower spin. The fully-machined variable thickness face increases ball speed for a hotter club face response.
