Hi guys 👋 Quick note to say I meant to say “SFT” not “LST” at the end and in the graphic - it’s the SFT that I tested in this video (just a little mistake!)
Just after the boys were bragging about all the thorough editing that goes on before a video is released 😂 great video and great podcast Pete, You're the man! P.s challenge Fat Perez.
All good, I think we all knew what you meant. Great video, I personally struggle more with the left shot, but still really interested to see what driver came out on top.
So I just bought the Ping G430. I’ve been golfing for 1 year and struggle with a bad slice. But since buying this driver it has absolutely saved me so many times. I went from shooting around a 105 to shooting a 91 today. Definitely works!
Nice. I currently have the Ping G from 2017 and also have a light slice and shoot around 95-100 as well. I'm thinking about getting the G430. Which model did you go with? The SFT? Thanks!
@@kylecampion93 obviously my swing changed with the club. It’s not the solution. It just helps because I naturally hit a fade anyways from playing baseball my entire life. By the time I’m ready for a new driver I’ll have my swing dialed in and hopefully won’t need the SFT version. But I’m just trying to have fun on the course and play decent for now
Are you still enjoying it after a few months? I've got a slice I'm working on myself. Obviously this isn't the only fix but anything that feels slightly better will be very encouraging and be more enjoyable.
I got fit into the Ping G430 SFT driver, G430 Max fairway, G430 hybrid, and G430 irons! Everything is a slight draw! Did I mention I just turned 70? They were a birthday present, I just received them but have to wait about a month to hit them. I hate winter!!!!
I just can’t justify spending the amount of money they’re asking. I get that there’s a lot of tech etc but it’s getting a bit ridiculous with the pricing of clubs.
That’s why I’m not upgrading to the ping 430 max I like the 425 just as well the only difference between the two is the 430 sounds better so I’m keeping the 425 max :) until I need to upgrade that is
@@tomgosling4458 true but if you want to buy a brand new driver with a warranty you’ll have to spend over 250 or more that’s how it is I mean wouldn’t you want a warranty on it ??
@@badbilly429 but can you stand the loud noise coming from the driver it don’t bother me I used to play with the Nike sumo2 5900 driver and that thing is louder then the 425 max
Well done, again. Thanks for always doing these in such a well-thought-out way. I appreciate it, especially when you consider the insane cost of these clubs.
I put together a paradym x with a senior shaft in the shop I work in and just could not miss the fairway 😂 I was swinging at 117mph and it was honestly just so easy, I've seen it perform very well in my fittings as well, would highly recommend 👌
@HunterM925 that's the usual ball speed with it during fittings for sure 😂 was hitting 168/169 myself with like 3500 spin but it was fairway every time
The Cobra and the Callaway also have draw settings on their tips to increase more left without increasing loft the Ping doesn't without increasing loft. These are all great for the strong fader , the slicers not so much but will help some , play as much loft has you can and a properly fitted shorter shaft . Ping's stock Alta shaft offering is 45 3/4 inches long if you get it 44 1/2 and swing weighted properly this can help alot , Cobra also offers all their Aerojet versions in a Tour length which is 44 1/2 inches which will be swing weighted at the build.
Yes, that is what Peter neglected to mention. I recently moved from an old Callaway Diablo to a ParadymX, and it is REALLY great. I keep it 12* and moved the bezel to "D". Almost impossible to not hit the fariway. I personally think the Callaway is a better club, but what do I know? 😂😂😂 I just play golf for the enjoyment, and the Callaway certainly supports that.
i have to agree. tried both the lst and paradym td as my top two. really liked the paradym, but the lst just couldn’t miss. lost about 4-5 yds on average, but my dispersion was terrific
I feel if someone has a driver from last 3-5 years they shouldn’t upgrade.. go to pro shop maybe get a different shaft or lead tape and dial your driver in. So many golfers just buy new clubs every year or every 2 … just a waste could be buying lessons, balls better courses ect
Any chance you could compare 10 ping g425 max vs 10 ping g430 max drivers? Just wondering if the difference is worth forking out another $575 for the g430 max thanks
Great video Pete , I’ve had the dreaded slice since time began and currently have the Ping G425 sft version but since I’ve had a few lessons with a golf pro I’m now hitting a nice draw and have changed to the Ping 430 max so I can swap things up as my bad shot now Is a duck hook left if I don’t follow my drill and routine since fixing my slice 👍🏻⛳️
Such good reviews! The baseline data comparison is always brilliant and what a lot of you tubers forget to do. Thanks so much. Would love to see a review of drivers under £300 for those struggling with budgets.
Ive moved from a low spin driver to a more forgiving driver and whilst my top end has slightly dropped the low end has jumped up showing a average of distance gained. I think a well set up forgiving head is the way to go.
I just bought a Cleveland Launcher Driver from Ebay - £38 - I really can't be doing with all these modern clubs that cost silly money, as long as I can hit it 270-300 in a straight'ish line, then I'm happy.
Great content. I struggle with a slice and gamed a Ping G425 SFT last year. Some days I hit straight bombs, others a slight fade, occasionally a nice draw. I’ve considered getting fit for a new driver in 2023 and I’m curious to try a shorter shaft to build confidence and help with accuracy. Have a tee time in the morning and tossed my 3-wood shaft on my driver for it. Definitely not scientific but I’m going to see what it does for me. I’d like to stay with Ping as I love all my Ping clubs but I’m open to seeing what a fitting can do for me.
The most interesting thing about this Video, and it's not the Drivers, is the fact that when Peter hits a ball at 100mph swing speed it looks like he is putting absolutely no effort into it at all but when I hit my Driver at 100mph, I am launching myself into it with everything I've got, and it still doesn't go very far. Just goes to show, technique and timing are everything.
I'm still trying to figure out how the company's have justified the $100-$150 increase in 'new model club' prices this year vs previous years. Used to be new clubs were in the $600-$700 range (CDN). Now there $700-$850. 15-20% increase over a single year? Supply and demand I guess. All I can say is that I went from 'Maybe I'll get a new club' to 'Heck no, I'll wait a few years for the price to come down'.
Pete recommends/says how easy they are all to hit.......tosses Stealth in the bag hasnt hit a fairway since!!!!! Great review of these "helping" drivers.
When I watched this I was sure the Callaway was going to be the winner, based on comments and data, so was surprised that Peter went for the Ping Driver. I'm certain that most people buying a new Driver are looking to increase the distance they hit it over their old one. I wouldn't want to be giving up nearly 10 yards to the Callaway, regardless of how easy the Ping is too hit. If I was watching someone hit it 10 yards further than me on most fairways I'd be wondering why I didn't buy that Driver.
Thanks Pete for your, video's , I,m a beginner ( and a slicer ) but I would like a good club before going to get fitted so I'm thinking of buying from golfbidder a either a Callaway Rogue or a Taylormade Sim2 , which should I get? I would really appreciate your advise, cheers
Hi Pete - what shaft did you use for the 10.5 degree driver data? Regular shafts just feel better for me than stiff, even though I have decent swing speed.
I learned today that if you're not working on your game, no equipment will be forgiven. I tried all the Maxes from different brands and they all showed zero improvement from my 15+ y/o driver. Work on your game and a set of decent clubs will still work.
Pete, were those Ping results with the weight in the draw+ position all the time? Did you test the normal draw position to see the difference between the 2 settings?
Pete may I be so bold as to ask you to test the callaway triple diamond with the weights switched around. The heavier one at the back of the head to increase MOI? To see if it is more forgiving? Thanx!
I have a Ping G425 SFT 7 wood and I hit some beautiful high draws with it when struggle with low banana slices with other fairways. Ping clubs do what they advertise. Period.
I want to like the Callaway but it looks like it belongs in a 1990’s hotel. Also all of the Good Good golfers use it and they miss the Fairway like 80% of the time. Luckily there short game makes up for it. My ping G425 although not the farthest flying driver out there does go perfectly straight fixing my draw perfectly. I have always used Taylormade but found the Sim2 and stealth harder to hit straight than even the M2,4, and 6…. The guy in the pro shop handed me the ping G425 LST and said try it for a round and 🤯….i ordered the irons, hybrids and driver the next day…. Also being that I’m 6’2 it was nice to get the white dot irons that fit me so good. Being I’m almost 50 years of age it’s hard to stay bent over so far all day so having the correct “Fitted” irons helped my game/back a lot….Ping all the way for me….all that said I have played with guys playing with clubs they got in high school and they played insane so 🤔🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Ridiculous prices for these drivers, and most others also. If one wants the new and shiney, wait till the end of the year as all will be discounted due to retailers trying to reduce their overstock inventory.
Plenty of PGA Tour players have used "max" versions of drivers and even Keegan Bradley used to game the draw bias Taylormade drivers for a while. These drivers aren't just for high handicappers.
What exactly do you not like about the titleist tsr3? It is by far the best driver I have ever owned or hit, and I always hit the new drivers every year! It looks, sounds and feels better than all the others and as far as performance they all pretty much do the same thing if fit.
I had a club fitting and I tried every new club on the market, for me, I liked the Mizuno a lot and went with the 230 Z. Previously had the Covra radspeed.
What’s the price range for Mizuno compared to others? Where I’m from there are no Mizuno’s for miles around. They make great equipment when it comes to other sports.
@@brentsimmons7580 I paid $500 new for the Mizuno ST230Z. Compared to $550 for cobra, $600 for Callaway, and I think $600 or 629 for Stealth 2. Ping was also $550-$600 didn’t check the price tag on that one.
If Ping could make the G425 sound like the G430, its perfect. I don't like the look of the G430 so wouldn't change. Ultimately both perform the same and its about sound/feel & aesthetics.
While I appreciate manufacturers making a driver that helps with a slice, I can’t justify the price tag. I have a standard driver, but put it in the upright setting to counteract my slice. I think a lot people with a slice would also benefit from that setting vs buying an anti slice driver.
I really am baffled by the paradym love. It was definitely my least favorite and my whole group hated it TSR and Ping were the winners for us. However, none of us leaned draw biased, so who knows. TSR 3, then Ping G430 LST blew the comp away for me.
Why wouldn't your recommendation be the Paradym X which showed a 0.6 offline? That is crazy forgiveness but you're recommending the worst driver Ping which went way offline to the left.
@@graemeday4195 I guess you are right. For me, I don't slice the ball but do occasionally over-fade the ball. I think the Paradym X seems interesting as a really forgiving driver. I wouldn't play a draw bias driver because I don't want hooks but from other review videos of the Paradym X, it seems to be a really good driver that just goes straight.
pretty hilarious to be testing the ping / callaway / cobra and using a mizuno ball when showing them in non shot shots against a ball :) ....speaking of which you said at start not to mention any others because you would explain why you were only selecting these 3 ...i thought i watched the whole video and cant recall any explanation ....just think from hitting it the other day myself ...that the mizuno might be worth a test ....cant see you have done anything on the mizuno and i know they arent usually great but i think they have cracked it this time around ....just prefer to see your reviews of stuff ...cheers ...PS come play australia ...ill show you around brookwater ....or you would LOVE dent island
Offset surely doesn't mean what you're saying here? Offset on irons are when the clubface is set back behind the hosel. Not where the toe is ahead of the hosel. Surely the concept would be the same with driver?
I understand why you couldn't test everything but I actually have the BAL H AJAJSJFBEFIVBSDVCEFJBCVIK in the bag and I really think it's worth trying out if you're looking for something that'll help control a slice
The only reason I wouldn’t buy the Ping driver is those ugly bumps on top of it that do absolutely nothing unless maybe you’re swinging it 200 miles per hour.
Hi guys 👋 Quick note to say I meant to say “SFT” not “LST” at the end and in the graphic - it’s the SFT that I tested in this video (just a little mistake!)
I did catch that. You're forgiven, Mr. Finch. 😄 Thanks for providing such fun content. Am absolutely loving the Pete v Pro stuff.
Just after the boys were bragging about all the thorough editing that goes on before a video is released 😂 great video and great podcast Pete, You're the man! P.s challenge Fat Perez.

Try the mizuno driver! Everyone over looks it and it’s cheaper than most out on the market
All good, I think we all knew what you meant.

So I just bought the Ping G430. I’ve been golfing for 1 year and struggle with a bad slice. But since buying this driver it has absolutely saved me so many times. I went from shooting around a 105 to shooting a 91 today. Definitely works!

Great review, love how you knocked your swing speed down to match more what the golfers who will be looking at these models will see
Thanks 👍
Appreciate the constant reviews - great stuff!
Well done, again. Thanks for always doing these in such a well-thought-out way. I appreciate it, especially when you consider the insane cost of these clubs.
I really like how you slowed your swing down a little to give a more accurate representation of an average mortal as well. Great video mate, thanks.

Ping just simply makes the best woods.

Fantastic as always Mr.Finch. 😊

Really appreciate the 100mph swing speed tests and data
So is it the ping SFT? Or the LST? At the start of the video you said SFT... but at the end you recommend the LST
I believe he misspoke in his summary, this was about the SFT. The LST would not be going 32 yards left.
Apologies, are you recommending the LST model or the SFT model, as a bit conflicting towards the end of your video!? 🙄
Yeah he said LST but was showing the SFT. Not sure what he meant
Thanks for sharing
If you're using the SFT....why recommend the LST.....or is it a typo..???
Indeed
Pete may I be so bold as to ask you to test the callaway triple diamond with the weights switched around. The heavier one at the back of the head to increase MOI? To see if it is more forgiving?
Thanx!
when u say keeping it left do u mean drawing the ball or hitting it straight left or a bit of both?? did u hit any slices with the ping ??
Pete what ball are you using this season?
What shaft was used on the AeroJet?

I love the Ping 430 max driver
Are you down in the US Southwest? Looks like an Arizona course, but maybe Cali or Nevada given the lack of tall cactus.
I so want the paradym x but cannot justify paying out that much. I loved it when I tested it out recently
I just got mine and its absolute unit
Yeah that’s the big issue with it
I had a club fitting and I tried every new club on the market, for me, I liked the Mizuno a lot and went with the 230 Z. Previously had the Covra radspeed.
Mizuno is criminally underrated when it comes to drivers/woods. The 230Z is super sick!
@@jayfron6012 thank you! I felt like I was on an island here myself.
What’s the price range for Mizuno compared to others? Where I’m from there are no Mizuno’s for miles around. They make great equipment when it comes to other sports.
@@brentsimmons7580 I paid $500 new for the Mizuno ST230Z. Compared to $550 for cobra, $600 for Callaway, and I think $600 or 629 for Stealth 2. Ping was also $550-$600 didn’t check the price tag on that one.
I love the Aerojet crown. Would much prefer that to Ping. But the g430 lst was so darn good for me I had to settle for it’s hideous crown.
What’s ur thoughts on the mizuno golf ball ur hitting??
If Ping could make the G425 sound like the G430, its perfect. I don't like the look of the G430 so wouldn't change. Ultimately both perform the same and its about sound/feel & aesthetics.

The G425 series is still awesome don’t worry
LST or SFT?
I’m sure he meant SFT.
@@jeffreychernes3193 I'm sure. The text on screen has LST as well.
Would love to see you set them up optumium for you at that speed, like lofts and sharft fitted
I really am baffled by the paradym love. It was definitely my least favorite and my whole group hated it TSR and Ping were the winners for us.
However, none of us leaned draw biased, so who knows. TSR 3, then Ping G430 LST blew the comp away for me.
I like the G425 better than the G430 idk why I think it’s just more appealing to me in looks
Think you mean SFT not LST with the final recommendation?
I'm still running a Cobra King F6 driver. 7 years and counting. Still can't hit it straight!
I thought offset was how much the hosel is in front of the face? I think your talking about the face being toed in or closed, not offset
Why wouldn't your recommendation be the Paradym X which showed a 0.6 offline? That is crazy forgiveness but you're recommending the worst driver Ping which went way offline to the left.
They way I read it, if your slicing that far right, it will give you 30 odd yards of left correction..
@@graemeday4195 I guess you are right. For me, I don't slice the ball but do occasionally over-fade the ball. I think the Paradym X seems interesting as a really forgiving driver. I wouldn't play a draw bias driver because I don't want hooks but from other review videos of the Paradym X, it seems to be a really good driver that just goes straight.
@Bawkzers agreed, I don't play a driver, as I do slice, but hit a 3 wood bolt straight..!!
pretty hilarious to be testing the ping / callaway / cobra and using a mizuno ball when showing them in non shot shots against a ball :) ....speaking of which you said at start not to mention any others because you would explain why you were only selecting these 3 ...i thought i watched the whole video and cant recall any explanation ....just think from hitting it the other day myself ...that the mizuno might be worth a test ....cant see you have done anything on the mizuno and i know they arent usually great but i think they have cracked it this time around ....just prefer to see your reviews of stuff ...cheers ...PS come play australia ...ill show you around brookwater ....or you would LOVE dent island
Offset surely doesn't mean what you're saying here? Offset on irons are when the clubface is set back behind the hosel. Not where the toe is ahead of the hosel. Surely the concept would be the same with driver?
Just bought the Titleist TSR2, hit all the others but the numbers were just so much better and don't think we are getting enough reviews of it!
Epic vs Rogue vs Paradym?
it always seems to be anti slice what about an anti hook driver thats what i want great vlog i know which one not to get and thats the ping
Whirlwind golf club 👍🏾
Error at the end of the video when it brings up on screen the recommended club you’ve put Ping G430 LST not the draw biased one
My favorite video and favorite time of the year, keep it up Pete 😎💪🏼💪🏼
I understand why you couldn't test everything but I actually have the BAL H AJAJSJFBEFIVBSDVCEFJBCVIK in the bag and I really think it's worth trying out if you're looking for something that'll help control a slice
X vs rogue max d?
Tour Edge (never seen u hit one)
A golf club will never cure a slice.
Got the model wrong on the end graphic and the ending summary.
SFT not LST just say’in!
I always try and get the most forgiving driver, however it might be me and not the clubs fault 😂
My G410 is 2 yards shorter than the G430 on testing
Gona keep the 410 and save £500
I think if you want a cobra driver. Buy the f9
The only reason I wouldn’t buy the Ping driver is those ugly bumps on top of it that do absolutely nothing unless maybe you’re swinging it 200 miles per hour.
