The G440 fairway family (MAX, LST, SFT) advances PING’s reputation as a Tour-preferred model of choice through a re-designed face structure and low CG system. The face is taller for more confidence off the tee while maintaining a CG location that delivers high- launching performance off the ground. The face thickness is optimized in the heel and toe regions for more consistent performance on on-center strikes. Each model is designed to fit a specific player type with a head profile engineered to provide launch conditions that best match a player’s swing. The MAX model (which fits most golfers) is available in five lofts (including a new 4-wood) to provide more gapping solutions. The multi-material LST (Low Spin) design appeals to players with faster swing speeds, providing high launch and lower spin. Golfers in need of slice-correction technology fit best in the SFT (Straight Flight) option, which features a draw-inducing CG location.
Re-designed Face Structure
A shallower face (8%) helps golfers hit higher on the face, which in turn helps them launch their hybrids higher. A thinner face (6%) and optimized face profile help increase ball speed in the middle of the face and control ball speed on off-center strikes.
Free-Hosel Technology
By removing 4g from the hosel, screw, and heel section of all hybrid lofts, mass savings lower the CG by 12% and combine with the reduced face height to increase launch and stopping power without compromising ball speed.
Contoured Sole Design
Slimming down the back-weight profile ensures that the club sits more flush to the ground and the face angle remains consistent – no matter the loft or lie setting -- allowing golfers to benefit from the multiple loft and lie options provided by the adjustable hosel.
Extensive Loft Offerings
Each hybrid is designed to fit golfers with various skill levels. The 2 hybrid (17°) is slightly fade-biased with a lower, more penetrating flight for off-the-tee performance. Loft has been increased by 1° in the 3 (20°) and 4 (23°), hybrids for higher launch with a neutral flight and more stopping power. The 5 (26°), 6 (30°) and 7 (34°) hybrids provide a slight draw bias and higher launch to help them fly straighter and gap well into an iron set.
CarbonFly Wrap Crown
The CarbonFly Wrap crown saves weight, which is re-allocated to help lower the CG, ensure forgiveness and contribute to a more muted, pleasing sound at impact.
Trajectory Tuning 2.0 Adjustable Hosel
The lightweight, 8-position hosel enables adjustments for loft (±1.5°) and lie (up to 3° flatter than std.) to further dial in ball flight for the best results.
