Used the G15 Draw (12*) for about a year and gained 10-15 yards compared to my Cobra Mspd Offset (12*). However, I had trouble controlling the Ping so I went back to the Cobra. Now the K15 has my attention. From what I have read, it seems more "user friendly" than the G15. Would appreciate your thoughts / opinions, etc.....

k15 is as close to a point and shoot (really no such thing) as has ever been produced. As straight as my old Nike 5900 and Callaway Fti but much longer. Ping is as good as it gets and 6 months ago I had zero interest in Ping.

Love my K15 (12*, regular) - had a G10 10.5 in V2HL for a few years and thought nothing could beat it. I was wrong. Long, straight and friggin' automatic. Sound could be a little more muted, but overall, a winner.

I love the K15 12° ---it's the first 460cc driver to stay with my 11.5° 983K--but I prefer the lower profile G15 fairway wood. I think mine is an 18.5, and then I hit a 23° MacGregor Tourney V-Foil to complete the set.

I'll say this - however - in a more negative reaction to the K15 fairways (referencing what Niblick mentioned ) - I did not like the K series fairways. Lie angle way too flat - even for me at 5'5".
G20 better - G20 hybrids - perfection !

I just got one, and took it to the range. It does hit the ball straight, but man, it sets up really closed at address.

The G15, K15 and G20 fairway woods all have the same lie angle in the 3, 5 and 7 woods (56*, 56.5* and 57*). However the G15 hybrids are more upright by as much as 2* compared to the G20's.
Funny but I like the K15 fairway woods and the K15 driver couldn't beat my Cobra. May have to give it another go though.
