Ping Golf is renowned for performance, forgiveness, and precision craftsmanship. From high-launching Ping drivers and forgiving Ping irons to expertly milled Ping putters, every club is designed to help you play your best. Below you'll find the complete Ping range -- and which models suit your game.
PING DRIVERS
Ping Drivers are engineered to produce longer, straighter drives with enhanced forgiveness and feel. The latest models, G430 and G440, feature advanced aerodynamics, adjustable weighting, and multiple head options to match different swing types and abilities.
DIFFERENCES BETWEEN PING LST, MAX & SFT MODELS
- Ping G440 LST (Low Spin Technology): Designed for faster swingers seeking reduced spin and a more penetrating ball flight. Ideal for low-handicap and elite players.
- Ping G440 MAX: The most forgiving model, offering mid-spin performance and maximum stability. Suited for a wide range of golfers, particularly mid-handicappers seeking all-round control and distance.
- Ping G440 SFT (Straight Flight Technology): Engineered with built-in draw bias to correct slices and promote straighter drives. Best for players who want more fairways hit and higher launch with confidence.

PING WEDGES
Choosing the correct wedge lofts, bounce and grind has more impact on scoring than almost any other spec. Ping's current wedge families (e.g., s159 and Glide 4.0) offer multiple lofts and several sole grinds so you can match turf, sand and your delivery (shallow vs. steep). Use this quick guide to build the right combination for the UK's varied conditions--from soft parkland to firm links.
WHAT TO CONSIDER
- Gapping: Confirm carry distances on a launch monitor for PW/GW/SW/LW.
- Lies you actually face: Prioritise the grind that saves the most shots where you play most.
- Delivery: Steep → add bounce (H/W/E). Shallow → trim bounce (T/B). Mixed → S is the safe bet.
- Grooves & finish: Consider raw vs. chrome for glare and spin consistency in the wet.
When you're ready, get a quick fit (Ping's WebFit is a handy start) and then verify outdoors on real turf and sand.
Work backwards from your set pitching wedge (PW). Modern PW lofts are often 44-46 degrees. Aim for consistent yardage steps of 10-15 yards between wedges. Two- or three-wedge build? If you carry more fairway woods/hybrids, you can run PW-52-58. If you want maximum precision, go PW-50-54-58 (or PW-50-54-60).
PING BOUNCE ANGLE
Bounce is the angle that helps the sole glide rather than dig. More bounce = more forgiveness in soft turf and sand; less bounce = easier to nip the ball on firm, tight lies. Your swing delivery matters too: steeper players generally benefit from more bounce; shallower players can use less.
PING SOLE GRINDS
Ping's current line-up covers multiple grinds to fit course and swing. Below is a simple matrix to steer you; always confirm with a proper fitting.
PING PUTTERS
Choosing the right PING putter comes down to four essentials -- head design, length, lie angle, and grip. Get these matched to your stroke and posture and you'll start the ball on line more often with better pace control.
Head Design
Head shape influences forgiveness, alignment, and how the putter feels during your stroke. Use your stroke type and typical miss to pick the right shape.
| Head | Typical Toe Hang | Best For Stroke | Main Benefits | Watch-outs |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Blade: Anser, Kushin, etc. | Moderate to strong | Arc or strong-arc | Elegant look, precise face control, feedback rich | Less stable on off-centre strikes vs big mallets |
| Mid-Mallet: DS72, Shea | Slight to moderate | Slight-arc or subtle arc | Balance of alignment help and feel, versatile | Not as compact as blades, not as stable as large mallets |
| Mallet: Tyne, Fetch, Oslo, Craz-E | Face-balanced to slight | Straight or slight-arc | High MOI stability, easy alignment frames | Can feel larger at address for blade purists |
| Centre-Shaft / Face-Balanced: Prime Tyne C | Minimal | Straight-back-straight-through | Face wants to stay square, reduces rotation | Less suited to pronounced arcing strokes |
PING CUSTOM FITTING - WHAT TO CONSIDER
Ping leads the way in custom fitting, ensuring every golfer gets clubs matched perfectly to their height, swing, and performance goals. A fitting session considers:
- Loft: Determines ball flight and distance gaps.
- Shaft Type: Choose graphite for lighter feel or steel for control and feedback.
- Shaft Flex: Match flex to swing tempo - L, A, R, S, or X.
- Lie Angle (Colour Code): Ping's famous chart ensures your clubhead sits square at impact.
- Club Length: Adjusted for your height and wrist-to-floor measurement.
- Grip Type & Size: Impacts comfort, hand placement, and control.
Every Ping fitting session helps you achieve more consistent distance, accuracy, and confidence -- so your equipment performs as well as you do.
