Where these two actually differ
- We flag Formaldehyde-based resins in synthetic leather adhesives, Polyurethane volatile organic compounds (VOCs), Water-resistant coating durability and degradation products and Contact sensitization from adhesives or finish chemicals on the Ping and not on the Wilson.
- We flag Graphite shaft resin degradation and fiber exposure, Rubber grip deterioration and skin contact and Nickel or chromium sensitivity from steel clubheads on the Wilson and not on the Ping.
- The Ping is synthetic leather / microfiber with water-resistant coating where the Wilson is Steel clubheads, graphite shafts, rubber grips, which is most of the difference in these two grades.
- The gap is 45 points, wide enough that this is not a close call, and the Wilson is the one to buy.
