PING Releases Limited Edition PINK G Driver

PING Releases Limited Edition PINK G Driver
Limited Edition for a Worthy Cause

Continuing what I suppose now qualifies as a tradition, PING has introduced a limited edition pink version of its G driver. The pink G, which is limited to 6,000 units, will also come with a Bubba Watson character headcover, and will retail for $600.

Before you get all worked up about the price, it’s imperative to note that for each of pink G drivers sold, PING will donate $60 to the Bubba Watson Foundation.

Charity is also part of the pink driver tradition.

Proceeds from the sale of the first pink driver (G20) were donated to the Phoenix Children’s Hospital, where they were used to help build the Bubba Watson-PING Motion Analysis Lab, which helps evaluate and treat children and adolescents with movement disorders.

Proceeds from 2015’s pink G30 were donated to the Pensacola, Florida, Childrens hospital, Sacret Heart (Bubba’s birthplace), along with other children’s charity’s in the Pensacola area.

“PING and the Solheim family are incredibly generous in giving back to the game through ideas like the limited-edition pink-driver program,” Watson said. “I’m very grateful for all of their support, on and off the golf course. The response from the first two driver programs was amazing, so I’m excited to continue this tradition for the third time. We’ve been able to do a lot of great things together that truly help improve the lives of the less fortunate and those in need.” – Bubba Watson

A pink shaft (not shown) is also part of the package.

The pink G drivers are offered in 9º and 10.5º lofts for right-handed players and 10.5º only for left-handed players. Both are available in regular and stiff flexes.

      Only $60 bucks goes to charity so they are still making a profit.

      When have you seen any other major OEM donate?

      They aren’t donating when they raise the cost by $200 over the standard version and only donate $60. That donation is really just a cost passed onto the buyer.

      I also have a concern when someone else is offering to be generous with my money! I initially thought this was a driver that I could stand behind it, but it is a flawed deal. Six thousand of something isn’t exactly much of a limited offer, I don’t get the donation write-off (is Ping taking my credit), the donation isn’t nearly enough to cover the added mark-up cost and I don’t hit it long enough to put up with the ribbing for that premium.

      Sorry Ping, it’s just a flawed idea. Hopefully that was the marketing group and not the engineer’s idea.
