In an effort to stop counterfeiters and clone manufacturers and protect the golfing public, Callaway Golf uses unique serial numbers to identify their clubs.

The serial numbers can be found etched into the back of the hosel on drivers, fairways, hybrids, and irons. Each club is individually serialized with its own unique number.

Most stickers on authentic clubs are placed on the underside of the shaft up by the grip or down next to the ferrule. Counterfeit clubs usually have this sticker near the shaft band on the top of the shaft so it is easily visible. They figure it will make it look more authentic I suppose.

Locate the serial number on the Ping club to be verified. For irons, the serial number is on the hosel. For woods, the location of the serial number varies by model but usually is found near the numbers indicating the degree of loft.

Physical Characteristics To Look For On The Ping G20 Iron. First off, across the board for seeing whether your club is real or counterfeit is to smell the grip of your club. The counterfeit grip will smell like rubber. In addition to the grip not being aligned with the club.

The Ping G 5 Hybrid 26 is an ideal game improvement hybrid for senior golfers who have slower swing speeds. The clubs offer the maximum level of forgiveness and support to these golfers and helps them score more often.

Are graphite shafts better for seniors? Generally speaking, graphite shafts are better for seniors than steel shafts unless the senior still maintains very high swing speeds. There are some seniors in incredible shape that can easily hit a regular steel shaft in their iron.
