We received a counterfeit Ping G30 Driver and have posted pictures below to show the differences between an authentic driver and the counterfeit we received. In comparison to other knockoff clubs we have had traded in to us, this counterfeit Ping G30 is pretty well made. The quality isn’t nearly as bad as many of the other clubs we have had sent to us. Even though it is better than some, there are still several easily noticeable differences when compared to an authentic Ping G30.
The first thing I noticed is the the raised “Turbulators” on the crown go right to the edge on the real driver and there is a gap on the fake.
On the sole, the lettering for the G30 and the loft are white on the counterfeit, but gray on the authentic club.
The weight on the sole looks significantly different.
The font on the serial number is much larger on the counterfeit than the authentic club.
The word LOFT near the hosel is in a different font than the real thing.
There is a rubber piece around the screw that is falling apart on the counterfeit.

Please be careful when purchasing clubs and make sure to buy from a reputable seller who you feel comfortable with. If buying clubs on eBay, make sure the seller has good feedback and has at least a couple hundred transaction under his belt. If an eBay seller has a feedback profile similar to ours, you should feel pretty good about purchasing from them. Take a look at the pictures and let us know if you have any questions.
And remember, if you have some used clubs laying around taking up space, go to our TRADE IN PAGE and quickly get cash for your used clubs.

To check whether or not an RS-232 serial port is working, perform an RS-232 loopback test by doing the following:
If your serial port is not female, convert it by taking a female/female cable or gender changer and plugging it into the serial port.
Take a metal paperclip or wire and cross pins 2 and 3. If you look closely at the female end, the pins should be numbered.
Open a telnet session on the COM port number of the device that you are testing. To find out the COM port number, refer to the following FAQ: https://www.startech.com/faq/com-port-listing-windows.
Note: To open a telnet session on the COM port, you need a telnet client like PuTTY or Hyper Terminal. Windows XP comes with Hyper Terminal.
When the session is open, anything you type into it you should see. The loopback test fails when you cannot see what you are typing.
If the loopback test fails, make sure that the serial cable or gender changer that you are using works and that the adapter is in the correct port.
You can check multiple ports at the same time by opening multiple sessions, putting the loopback adapter on one port, and trying to type into each session. When you can see what you are typing, you know that the COM port is working and you can see which port number the physical serial port is. Close the window for the port that you just tested to speed up the testing of the remaining serial ports.
