Solarflares,
Sorry but I have to respectfully disagree with you and agree with Alosso.. Because I'm semi-retired and have a limited budget I used the full set of lvl 59 G25's until I got to level 79 and could buy the white SLDR.
I was not in a position to buy one of the better lower level drivers for the special price of 1995 credits (or more) and then have to replace it again in a short amount of time I found both the driver and the 3W worked OK for me.
I still have a lvl 81 G25 3W, and sometimes use it if I'm having trouble hitting my lvl 89 BB 3W. I compared the Ping 3W to the lvl 73 X2 Hot 3W on a free rental weekend and found the Ping was a little longer at 1/2 the cost. And accuracy was the same for me.
Club usage is wildly different for everyone. If it wasn't, then there wouldn't be a need for both the Nike and Versa putters. And we all (or almost all) have good and bad days when it comes to swing timing.
Are the Ping G25 driver and 3W as good as some of the other clubs available at that level? No, but they would work for someone who has to watch his credits. Buying a full set is one way to improve and enjoy the game on a budget.
