Ping Rapture built crapture!

So I'm at the range tonight trying to get this Rapture Dialed in (which I'm struggling a bit with tbh) when I noticed that the badge on the rear had come off. I know it was on at the start of my session but half way through I turned it over to clean it and noticed the badge had gone and there was a hole in the carbon fibre where it should be. I couldn't find it anywhere so I will be taking it back to the shop tomorrow to see what they will do about it.

You must have hit it too hard!! I've played a couple rounds with mine and have not had a problem. I believe they'll make good on it. Tell them you want a new one!! If it were me I would. For as much as they get for these things they should last forever. (hint: position the ball just "inside" your left heel.)

See if they can do something with that ugly spot on the crown of the club. If It wasn't for that spider web thing I might come close to likeing the looks of the driver.

So I guess everyone is saying 'crapture' now

That is horseshit.

Send that POS back to Ping and buy an FT-5.

Garbage. Inexcusable. Rubbish.

well, it is a ping... what do you expect???

although we established in a another thread that pings are built to last, so maybe you got the crappy one of the bunch?

Well if you'd pick one up you'd find you can only really see that spider web when a flash from a camera shows it. The top is transparent and normally you don't see it. So now you can like it.

My skin is getting much too thick for that to work anymore!! (But if the medallion comes off mine I WILL trade it in for a FT-5!!!)

I just had to go check my Rapture's "medallion" and all I can say is that puppy ain't coming off!!

I picked one up in Golf Central and It was the first thing I noticed. I tried to rub it off not knowing it was actually supose to be there.

So I will still never buy one.
