    Tried a friend's Ping Rapture driver (pre V2 version) with the aldila shaft and liked it. Has anyone tried this club? Would like to pick up a used one and give it a real try if anyone knows where to find one!

    There is a member in our club playing off 5 handicap, who has his rapture since it has come out. He hasn't changed it in all that time. He has the VS Proto shaft in the club and hits it quite consistently.

    Considering the amount of shafts and heads that have come out since then, it speaks volumes about the quality of the Rapture driver. It has a more solid sound at impact unlike some of the latest drivers.

    I've seen some on ebay, but you still pay top dollar for them as they are a quality item.

    Yes, it is the VS Proto shaft I am interested in. I have seen this driver on ebay from the states and UK but was hoping to pick one up here

    i bought a 2nd hand ping rapture with regular adila shaft and find it an immensely reliable club. very easy to get some shape on your drives and it sounds so bloody good. couldnt recommend it highly enough mate. But yes, the shaft... its importance is hugely underestimated - but an adila vs proto would be superb with this club! pure massive. best of luck.

    I've never used a Ping driver but anyone who has seems to hit the ball fairly straight (if so then I really should consider one too).

    But the Rapture will be so 2009 next year!
