The PING Rapture Driver combines titanium, carbon composite and innovative thinking to create a powerful and forgiving shots off the tee. The visual technology of the composite crown design not only attracts attention, it enhances performance. The 460cc driver features a visible, web-shaped titanium crown injected with lightweight composite. PING engineers relied on computer simulation driven by a Cray Supercomputer to analyze the crown to ensure structural integrity and performance. Acoustical engineering was also heavily
involved to create a solid, powerfully appealing sound.
- Fully-machined variable thickness face increases ball speed for a hotter club face response.

- Discretionary weight from a lightweight composite inserted into the web-shape area is re-distributed inside the club head to position the center of gravity for higher launch and lower spin.

- The composite is secured to ensure a strong, durable bond to the titanium head.
- By utilizing the composite in the low stress areas of the crown, 20 grams of mass inside the club was able to be repositioned in the form of weight pads for higher launch and lower spin.

- Unique, eye-catching crown design made possible by composite material inserted into the web-shape crown using a bladder mould.
