Ping G430 MAX Fairway Wood

Who’s It For?

For many amateur golfers, fairway woods can be the trickiest clubs to hit, especially off the turf. PING understands this and has gone to work building some of the easiest fairway woods to hit in the industry, including the PING G430 fairway woods. Through a series of technologies, the PING G430 fairway woods deliver superb forgiveness and ease of use for a wide range of players. The G430 Max model, specifically, is built for the widest range of players and emphasizes forgiveness and high MOI.

The Tech Story

Forgiveness and consistency are the two key themes PING continues to hit on with fairway woods, and the G430 fairway woods are no different. An all-new CarbonFly Wrap, which consists of an ultra-thin and lightweight composite crown that wraps into the heel and toe of the skirt, creating weight savings that are allocated throughout the clubhead to improve MOI and lower the center of gravity. Additionally, Spinsistency returns in the PING G430 fairway woods to improve performance on low-face strikes by subtly decreasing the loft, helping fight against the “ballooning” effect that can take place when the ball is struck on the bottom of the face. FaceWrap Technology consists of a high-strength maraging steel face that wraps into the sole and crown to increase face flexing, resulting in more energy transfer at impact. The G430 Max model is designed for golfers seeking a fast, forgiving, and consistent fairway wood and are not fighting a slice.
