Ping G440 Hybrid
Sits square at address
Half the trouble people have with hybrids is that the head looks shut, so they aim right to compensate. This one sits square, which sounds like nothing and is most of the problem solved.

17 to 30 degrees
Worth fitting before you buy it. The session fee comes off the price, and we will say so if it makes no difference.

Who it suits
Players who have tried a hybrid, pulled it left, and blamed themselves.
Square at address, and that is most of it
- Sits square
- Five lofts
- Iron length
- 01Five lofts, 17 through 30. Pick by the gap, never by the number.
- 02If your hybrid goes left, it is usually the head shape and your aim, not your swing.
- 03Set up at iron length, so lie angle matters and we set it on the bench.
- 04Bring the long iron you are replacing. The comparison takes five minutes.
From behind the counter
Aim it at a target before you hit anything. If it looks shut to you, that is the club telling you something.

On the bench beside it
Hit these before you choose. Most players guess wrong between them.
