Ping K15 Fairway Wood

The Ping K15 fairway wood features a larger head design that has positioned the mass of the club away from the club face to help increase the moment of inertia and lower and deepen the centre of gravity to provide a dynamic loft at impact that produces a higher trajectory.

Like the the K15 driver, the K15 fairway wood uses Ping's patent pending Straight Flight Technology that utilises an external weight pad to place 6% of the clubhead mass towards the heel of the club. This promotes a natural clubhead rotation through impact while the clever design means the external sole weight pad is barely visible at address.

The K15 fairway wood has been designed with a low profile that offers both a pleasing look at address and a larger hitting surface for extra forgiveness, clean contact and a higher trajectory.

The Ping K15 fairway wood included the TFC 149F graphite shaft that uses lightweight materials and offers progressive weight, flex and torsion profiles. This increases clubhead speed to promote maximum distance and superior control, consistency and feel.

What Golfalot Says


The Ping K15 fairway woods are ideal for those who struggle with fairways. The head is oversized and with a longer, deeper face the Ping G15 fairways and this provides excellent levels of forgiveness. As the head the larger than standard it gives a great zing sound at impact and the feel is very good too.

The flight is a little higher than a G15 fairway, but not much and as long as you are not playing in windy conditions, mid-handicappers could consider this club too. The SF Tec (Straight Flight Technology) ‘bulge’ on the heel side of the sole is subtle and helps to turn the club over at impact to reduce the likelihood of a fade. Overall the K15 is a great fairway wood for higher handicappers.

Another stunning fairway wood from Ping. The K15 fairway produces high, long and straight shot with a minimum of effort and fuss.

For the mid to high handicapper looking to improve this a stunning choice because you'll immediately have the confidence to play a fairway wood from a variety of lies. The K15 also performs well off the tee.

My only reservation might be the price, with the G15 fairway already on the market the K15 would seemed to be aimed at the higher handicapper who might not want to pay such a premium. On the other hand you get what you pay for and with the K15 you get a cracker!

Like the driver the new K15 Fairway Wood from Ping hits the nail on the head for those looking for something consistent and easy to hit from the fairway. The head is stylish and sits well behind the ball and just seemed effortless to hit, with a high and straight ball flight. A must try for high handicappers looking for a reliable fairway wood solution.
