Ping says:

"Tungsten sole plate (61 grams, 34-percent of head's mass) optimizes CG for higher launch, lower spin. Larger, shallow head profile for added forgiveness and performance from all conditions. Plasma-welded, machined, variable face thickness for added distance. Double-Rapture alignment aid on crown." (next page)
