Ping G440 Max HL Fairway Woods The Ping G440 HL Fairway Woods are specifically engineered to cater to golfers with slower swing speeds who struggle to generate sufficient clubhead speed and ball velocity with traditional drivers. By utilising lighter backweights, ultra-light shafts like the Alta Quick 35/45, and lightweight grips such as the Lamkin UTX 41g, the G440 HL Fairways help reduce the overall system weight. This allows golfers to swing the club faster, leading to more ball speed, higher launch angles, and longer carry distances. These G440 MAX HL Fairways are ideal for those looking to increase their distance off the tee or fairway without sacrificing forgiveness, providing an excellent option for golfers who need extra help getting the ball airborne and maximising their distance. Featuring the innovative CarbonFly Wrap Crown, these fairway woods save weight by redistributing mass to lower the center of gravity (CG), which enhances forgiveness and offers a more solid, satisfying sound at impact. The Trajectory Tuning 2.0 Adjustable Hosel gives golfers the ability to adjust the loft (±1.5°) and lie (up to 3° flatter) for more precise ball flight customisation. The inclusion of Free-Hosel Technology reduces 11.5 grams from the hosel and heel section, helping to create a taller face profile—boosting player confidence and improving launch conditions. The 4% taller face of the G440 MAX ensures high-launch performance, allowing golfers to achieve greater distance and accuracy off the tee and from the fairway. CONTOURED SOLE DESIGN By slimming down the back-weight profile, the PING G440 MAX Fairway Woods ensure that the club sits more flush with the ground, allowing the face angle to remain consistent. This design allows golfers to benefit from multiple loft and lie settings provided by the adjustable hosel, optimizing ball flight and ensuring stability, regardless of swing style. The enhanced sole design improves turf interaction, helping players achieve smooth, consistent contact with the ball on every swing. CARBONFLY WRAP CROWN The CarbonFly Wrap Crown technology, present in all three models (MAX, LST, SFT), helps save weight by redistributing mass to lower the center of gravity (CG). This reallocation improves forgiveness, allowing for more consistent ball contact, while also contributing to a more muted, pleasing sound at impact. By utilizing this innovative crown design, PING achieves optimal weight distribution to enhance performance without sacrificing feel. TRAJECTORY TUNING 2.0 ADJUSTABLE HOSEL With the Trajectory Tuning 2.0 Adjustable Hosel, the PING G440 MAX HL Fairway Woods offer 8 adjustable settings for loft (±1.5°) and lie (up to 3° flatter than standard). This allows golfers to fine-tune their launch angle and ball flight, ensuring they can achieve the best results possible based on their swing characteristics and course conditions. The ability to customize ball flight further enhances overall performance and consistency. FREE-HOSEL TECHNOLOGY By removing 11.5 grams from the hosel, screw, and heel section of the MAX HL models, the Free-Hosel Technology optimises weight distribution. This weight-saving technology enables the creation of a 4% taller face while maintaining the ideal CG height. The result is improved confidence for golfers off the tee, along with the low CG that enhances high-launch performance, particularly when hitting from the turf or challenging lies. TALLER FACE PROFILE The taller face profile of the G440 MAX HL is 4% taller than its predecessor, which boosts player confidence when addressing the ball off the tee. This feature, combined with the low CG design, ensures that golfers achieve high-launching, powerful drives, whether from the tee or from the fairway. The enhanced face design allows for a more forgiving, consistent performance across a range of conditions.
