Summary:
This is a good basic club. I bought mine for $200 just as the G10 came out, worth a try at that price. It wasn’t a great honeymoon however, as I found the Aldila NV65 too wild and I put the G5 away in favour of an old R510. Finally I decided to reshaft the G5 with a Grafalloy Blue that I’d pulled from another club and, wow, did that make a difference! No more hooks, perfect trajectory, great carry & roll. So, G5 + premium shaft = great club, competitive with anything out there.

Summary:
Got this driver about a week ago and have played two rounds with it. We played today and I was driving longer and straiter than I ever have. Improved my swing about three weeks ago and that has helped. The G5 is so good all you have to is meet the ball and it will really go.
I have decided to change my whole bag to Ping over time, this driver has really impressed me.

Summary:
This feels comfortable and gives you loads of confidence when you are set in the address position and ready bomb away because of the shape. Before you hit your shot you know this will deliver you the distance you want and it is so easy to shape your shots as well. Took about a week to fully get used to and now I refuse to use titleist 909, callaway ft-iq as I know nothing can beat this driver.

Ping G5 10.5 with custom Prolauch Tuned Shaft

Summary:
NO DRIVER WILL CURE A BAD SWING!!! That being said, with my shaft and loft set on a launch monitor, this one is close. Just as forgiving as any other 460cc clubhead and now with the new PING clubs out, you can get this one for a very decent price. Don’t waste your money on a new G10, this driver is the same except different in color. Take the money that you would spend on a $400 driver and go get on a launch monitor and determine what you need, then pick up a nice used G5 in the loft you need and have your fitting professional change the shaft to what the launch monitor says you need. C’mon folks, use the technology and practice and you’ll save money in the long run.

Summary:
Best driver I’ve ever owned. As long as the others I’ve tried, but the stock PING shaft agrees with my swing. This one is very accurate. I have a lot of confidence with my driver now.
