Ping G440 Max Driver
The forgiving one
The driver we hand people who have just told us they hit it everywhere. Off centre still goes forward, and forward and straight beats long and lost every round of your life.
£529
9, 10.5 and 12 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
Anyone whose driver misses are costing them holes, which is nearly everybody.

Off centre still finds the short grass
- High forgiveness
- Three lofts
- Adjustable hosel

- 01Three lofts. More loft is the fix for most slices and nobody wants to hear it.
- 02Adjustable hosel, so we set it here and you never need to touch it again.
- 03The Max is the forgiving head. The LST is for higher speeds and lower spin.
- 04We will show you the dispersion, not just the carry. That is the number costing you shots.
From behind the counter
Everyone wants the longest one. The longest one you can buy is the one you hit in play.
