  I was thinking about upgrading my driver to either the Ping G20 Driver (L58+) at 1,495 Credits or the Taylormade R9 Driver (L62+) at 1,195 Credits. Should I use the 300 extra credits for the G20 right now or wait it out for the R9 to be unlocked? Thanks

  I'd have to disagree with jimoldfart. The G20 270yd driver is so easy to hit and often times provides as much or more distance than the R9 275yd. It has higher loft, a slower meter and makes hitting fairways a bit easier IMO. As in real life, I'd rather hit a 8 iron from the fairway than a 9 iron from the rough, and if the G20's do that for me once a (9 hole) round, it's worth it IMO.

  +1 .... Fairways make your decisions sooooo much easier......
