[adinferno]

You did'nt hear it from me!

These are approx. selling prices $449.99 driver $279.99 fairway $1249.99 irons

 

The above is NOT the suggested.

[vecchio14]

Wow thats high, any feedback, has anyone hit these, good feedback????

[adinferno]

Not due for release till sept. 1st

whatever the MSRP is, is what they will be sold for. Ping accounts will be pulled for selling less than MSRP

[mcbush25]

Well, if the prices stated above hold true then these will be a little over my budget....I would love to try the equipment though.

YUP! watch out for the secret shoppers :man_in_love:

[gatorhead]

sometimes secret shoppers aren't necessary..i've been at demo days where they put the price list right on the rep's table for everyone to see. if the rep doesnt report it, he loses his job. some guys are just knuckleheads!!

Looks like a bad choice of names biblical silliness aside. I've heard people already referring to it as the Rupture series of clubs by Ping. The retailers either laugh when people ask or wince knowing even the real name makes people feel like a 15 year old asking the drug store cashier for a pack of trojans. Exactly same look on their face.

i would guess most places would sell them for 399.99 driver 299.99 fairway w/ graphite and 199.99 fairway/ w steel. I dont see why they would go off the norm for club prices.

I think it wil be a bad morve for PING if they use the previously mentioned priced. The G2 and G5 sold for $299.99, correct? Why such a drastic increase? The average Joe won't want top spend the extra money on a newer club, thus resulting, in my opinion, a drop in the Ping market share for woods. Ping also didn't do the Driver and get a "free" wood/hybrid like Callaway, TaylorMade and Cleveland. We'll see.

The Rapture driver, fairway, and irons are PINGs entry into the high end marketplace.

(just like taylormade r7 425 quad $399.99 cgb irons $1299.99, callaway Fusion $399.99 driver /$1199.99 graph. irons....etc...) The redwood putters will be milled, and sell in the $199.99 to 299.99 range. These are all additions to the line, not replacements for the G5 irons, or driver/fairways. The s58 will replace the s59, and the I5 will stay in the line-up also. The new wedge will replace the M/B. On a lighter note, there will be a Golf Glove in the line up for the U.S. market. ( Sold overseas, and in canada for years) Several new bags. The prices shown in a prior post are what you should expect to PAY at your local shop.

Buy the way.......The RAPTURE driver will be a very limited release sept 1.

Don't expect to see a bunch out there!

[hoosiervolunteer]

Ping stuff has ALWAYS been high. This should not be a surprise. What surprised me was the G5 driver being $299 retail on its release. Ping has always set a high price on its equipment, so this one surprised me. The Rapture series will be expensive for sure. Will I buy any of it? No. I'm looking at I5's. If I were looking at their driver I would buy a G5 not the Rapture. Will other people try it and buy it? Yes, definitely. Ping stuff always sells because of the diehard Ping guys and Ping's rock-solid and well-deserved reputation.

Yep, seen the glove around up here for a while. It is synthetic though, not leather. :man_in_love: (At leat the ones I've seen, mabye they'll expand the glove line)

No kidding. Why didn't they go all out and call it the "Orgasm" or "Money shot"? Ping is usually VERY conservative with their image and marketing, so this name seems completely out of character.

[gibby1]

Glove comes in leather as well as synthetic.

I saw today in the price guide that there is a Rapture hybrid and the whole rapture line will have VS Protos

Thanks for the info.

 

That is quite the stock shaft. Do you know if they are authentic VS Protos or proprietary versions, ie like the Titliest Speeders?

[TPC-Billy]

no I only said what stock was going to be along with some nice new customs
