The G440 driver family (MAX, LST, SFT) is optimized to deliver more ball speed through multiple advancements, including PING's deepest CG in a driver to date and a shallower, thinner face, while continuing to ensure the game-changing forgiveness expected from a PING driver. Golfers in need of slice-correction technology fit best in the G440 SFT (Straight Flight) option, which features a two-position (Draw and Draw+), adjustable 23-gram back weight Free-Hosel Technology Weight removed from a section of the hosel is re-allocated to help push mass lower to create PING's deepest center of gravity in a driver to date, aligning it closer to the force line for faster ball speed, optimal spin and higher launch for longer and straighter drives. Hotter, Thinner Face A lower face height allows us to make the face both thinner and hotter for more ball speed and consistency across the clubface, including the high heel region. Lighter Overall, Longer Shaft Length The total system weight is reduced by 10 grams and the standard length of our proprietary ALTA CB Blue shaft is 46" (1/4" longer than the previous model) to help golfers swing faster for more speed while maintaining a tight dispersion pattern. The standard length is 45.50" for the PING Tour 2.0 (Chrome and Black) and stock aftermarket options (Project X Denali Red and Mitsubishi Tensei 1K Black). CarbonFly Wrap Crown Common to all three models (MAX, LST, SFT), 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. Heavier 3-Position Adjustable Back Weight A 29-gram back weight in the MAX and LST models ensures forgiveness and can be adjusted into draw, fade or neutral position to influence shot shape and trajectory. 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.
