PING has develop into recognized for creating drivers which can be extremely simple to hit. I had nice outcomes utilizing the G430 10K final yr.
I might hit it wherever on the face and get good outcomes. Spin wasn’t overly excessive, and it felt good. But it surely wasn’t excellent. The top was outsized and regarded very busy, with all of the recesses on the crown, and it didn’t have any moveable weights. The G440 LST solves each a type of points.
The compact head (450cc) appears to be like far more manageable behind the ball. Aside from the turbulators, the crown is now easy with a two-tone end.
Older PING drivers could possibly be a bit clangy, however these new carbon crown fashions really feel so strong and balanced. And whereas it’s not the lowest-spinning low spin driver, the spin could be very constant, so drives are extremely repeatable.
On the launch monitor, there are different drivers I’d be capable to hit 5, even ten yards additional. However I’ve by no means hit a driver that persistently places me within the fairway just like the G440 LST does.
I’m not enjoying good golf at the moment. I’ve obtained no actual really feel for my swing. Regardless of that, nearly all of my drives are down the centre of the green.
I’ve made a few actually unhealthy strikes out of the toe lately, and previously, that might usually lead to a duck hook. With PING’s Spinsistency design constructed into the toe, these hooks flip into principally straight drives. I actually must be making an attempt to hit the ball laborious to overlook the green by any distance.
