Fairway woods can often be hit and miss for golfers, with some often finding them the trickiest club in the bag to hit. Hybrids on the other hand are some of the most popular clubs on the markets with many switching out their longer irons in favour of the metalwood. With the release of the Ping G440, the brand have looked to make their fairway woods and hybrids easier to strike and launch into the air as you look to power down fairways and onto greens.

A variety of fairway woods and hybrids are available as a part of the G440 range. The fairway woods are designed offer more confidence at address with a taller face, whilst the hybrids are all about increasing ball speed.
Ping have refined the clubs for more distance, control and launch. This is how they have done it…
The Technology
To help create a four per cent taller face, whilst maintaining the Centre of gravity height, Ping have removed 11.5 grams from the hosel, screw and heel section. Having a taller face is great for producing a confidence inspiring look off the ground for players, whilst a low CG preserves a high launch off the turf.
This four per cent increase in the length of the face is evident in the MAX model which has a longer face than the previous generation of Ping fairway woods.
