The best part of this video is that it wasn’t 30 minutes and every part of the video got directly to the point. Great job!
amen
Opposite of you know who
The driver in the video was not the triple diamond, it was the max. Reference is 7:51 in the video. So does the cover of the video, can’t trust anyone besides TXG for unbiased reviews.
@coreylaughlin6057 Yeah Club Champion (FKA TXG) are great for data driven reviews, I love their reviews. However, I do enjoy the personal touch and emotion Pete brings to reviews. Obviously feel and looks are subjective. We all have biases in life, you might prefer the looks and feel of a Srixon driver over a TM driver so if the two clubs were around the same in performance, you would be biased towards the Srixon, and there's nothing wrong with having a personal preference.
Although Taylormade Callaway ping make great drivers someone of your capabilities could use any of the drivers paid sponsors again
Thanks Pete! I think it’s been long enough that we may need look at all drivers in the last 5 years and see which would be ideal on a budget. Then we could look at not only performance vs new, but also durability.
Just buy Tour Edge, affordable and lifetime warranty. I snapped a shaft on the driving range, totally my fault, emailed them, they asked for pictures, sent them pictures, they recommended a stiffer shaft and I said okay. They sent it and I had it within a week.
Great, concise breakdown of how you selected your driver for '24. Not overly surprised with QFTO and needing accuracy. The G430 10K does sound like a real unicorn. Nice job team. Look forward to the rest of the WITB series!
Peter, how has your channel not got over a million subscribers. You are one of the best you tube channels on golf. Always enjoy them. Great review and hope the Ping does the job.
From another review of the Ping 430 Max 10k the reviewer said that Ping have managed to not only make it forgiving it has also managed to keep the spin down. Being forgiving usually means high spin which leads to less distance. Ping has managed to lower the spin and to keep up with the QI10 and Callaway Max for distance. Quite a feat I reckon, deserves to be in your bag.
You're spot on, he said he wanted maximum forgiveness so it can't be anyone else but Ping
got last years model after going to buy a Taylormade (also my usual brand) and loved it. Will probably upgrade to the 10k this year. Not a huge fan of the look at address, but the club has made a crazy improvement in my drives in one year. Consistency and distance. can't wait to try the 10k!
I am envious of you Pete been able to test a drivers over several sessions. This is something I think us regular golfers don't get the luxury. Normally you get a 30-60min session then you have to make a decision. Would be nice if pro's and shops would let you have a demo to trial in real life situations not just in a simulator.
nobody would bring them back.
@@mattbecham597 deposit system they would
I knew exactly where this video was going when I saw the G430 Max 10k was in third for ball speed. Great video and really informative!
Being a scratch golfer in 2019 due to putting & chipping & my awesome 2 wood original 1 TaylorMade mini driver that will never leave my bag for its low sping accuracy versatility of the deck .
I have always struggled with driver when used .
But i have always wanted a driver with total forgiveness more than anything & accuracy a little bit more than my 2 wood would be incredible
This Ping when i saw it in Drummond golf i absolutely loved it have not tried it yet .
But loved the feed back on this pete
I remember when jason day just recently put into his bag & boy did he put on a stripe show .
This is the best concise “new” driver review I have seen in a long time. Nicely done & many thanks
Just got fitted from putter--> driver with PXG. I am pumped to be getting their new generation of clubs & can't wait for my new black ops driver/3 wood/3 hybrid. Happy to see it made it on this video.
Havent had a chance to try any of this years models out yet but I’ve really been impressed by what everyone is saying about the Ping. Really looking forward to trying it out.
It seems they've created something better than maybe they thought
@@peterfinchgolf Is it worth the price tag though? $600 US is crazy for one club. Club prices are getting out of hand.
My uncle,an engineer, works at Ping. They are actually serious on the engineering side, and more focused on improvements of the club than marketing...They won't push out a driver if it doesn't have a few yards improvement in distance, etc...@@peterfinchgolf
I made the switch to the Ping 430 Max 10k (old driver was the 430 LST) and I absolutely love it. It has been a difference between night and day how much better I hit it. Thanks for the great video!
I love that you take the time to do these still… some of your peers fell off on this front. Stay with your bread and butter…. This content is so helpful.
Glad you love the G430 10k. I’ve got one coming my way as well as it increased my carry distance and lowered my dispersion from the 430 Max. It’s an amazing driver.
I just bought the ping 10k and I totally agree with Peter. I hit the dead center of this club face more often than any other driver. I don’t know why either because my swing tends to be loopy rubbish. The feel is superior and now I know why because the strikes are in the middle of the face. This ping driver has some strange magic to it and it’s worth the price.
Great video! I love that you really wanted the TaylorMade to win but you still stuck with your guns and chose the correct driver for you. Very unbiased video and that’s why you deserve a follow and more people watching your content! Good stuff!
Also I just bought the Ping Max 10k after getting fit for it and it’s amazing!! Finally a driver I feel confident using.
Keep up the great work!
Gotta stick to the program
Love the format here. Easy to follow the logic and the points Pete is making but doesn’t take forever to get to the point
Unlike the majority of golf yt😂
It's going in my bag. I truly appreciate your review of all these drivers. It made my decision easier with your reviews.
Great video. Your final result agrees with many articles I have read about the Ping. Will be testing it with others this weekend.
After i saw your first video on the best drivers for 2023 i decided to buy the Ping G430 and replace my TaylorMade Sim2 Driver with which i was very happy, The Ping G430 is amazing and honestly the best driver i have ever hit. Thanks Peter enjoy your videos.
Love your videos, Peter! 👍 Been a long time subscriber, and this is the reason why. Honest reviews that give everyone valuable information. You rock, buddy! Cheers from Canada 🇨🇦
I love Cobra clubs and recently bought a Cobra Driver F9. I'm hitting the fairways more consistently and further 🙏
My favorite!
Great video - I would have guessed the Ping 10K from your v first review of it - seemed to suit you immediately!
Yeah just vibes with it
I would guess you’re finding the center more often with the Ping because of the heavier head weight. Could also be the shape, who knows? But I always loved the slightly heavier head weight Ping offers.
I just got the Ping G430 Max 10k and took it out on the course yesterday. I had my best day off the tee. I hit more fairways and had a couple just a foot or two just off the fairway. This helped my game as I had better 2nd shots. Also my average distance went up I was very happy with the way I played with this driver at 10.5 degree.
YESSS!! You won't be disappointed Peter! Even with "Looks" questionably being worth as much as distance/forgiveness/feel it still smashed the Qi10!
I'm actually pleasantly surprised! As soon as I seen the title of the video I was saying to myself 'oh here we go again, another Taylormade Driver for Mr Finch!' LOL
NOW....on to the fairway woods....don't forget that G430LST!!
Thanks SO MUCH Peter, reaaaally. I have been racking my brain trying to decide between the Qi10, Ai Smoke and the G430 Max, but this has really solidified my decision. About an hour ago I kind of decided on the Ping, but this has made the decision that much easier, so thank you. Very informative, well rounded review. All the best mate!
Loved the review! Short and sweet. Straight to the point and stayed on topic. Something about smoke driver. Love the look and the new age sound of the tee! Can’t wait to see the iron review. I may be looking for new ones for the same reason you are. I love the P-7MB but I may need a CB for forgiveness (6 handicap)
Amazing start to Build your Bag!!!! Love the content and love the breakdown of all the drivers! Also though I love that there is a clear winner and Ping G430 Max 10k looks like it will have some staying power to be a club I could use for the next 5 years and be better for it! Thank you Pete and crew and if you need to give one of those bad boys away I will send you my address in Seattle!!! Can’t wait for the next installment of Build your Bag!
This video is incredible and I can’t wait to see the rest of this build my bag series.
Thank for this mate, will definitely try this when I go to the range...think my biggest problem sometimes, especially when at the range is, I want to hit the skin of the ball.
That’s great comparison video. And I agree Ping G430 max 10k is the most impressive driver this year. I just got it today, and it’s easily the straightest driver I’ve ever hit with least effort, and I hit it really far too.
Very fair review! Your assessment matches others that I have seen and it legitimizes you are as a good source. Well done and thanks.
Love the time and thought in this video. Especially shows with the seamless transitions from course to range to office and indoor range without skipping a beat. Great work lads.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Love these kind of videos, they're so refreshing. I'm playing the Belfrey for a stag this summer, I've watched so many driver reviews this past month and I'm still very confused on what i should be getting myself as a 'treat' for myself. I think I'm leaning towards a PING purely for the forgiveness
Great content as it is applicable to me; you rated and evaluated on the same areas that I feel are important for those of us who wondering if we should upgrade or not with a new driver. For the details important to me in a driver evaluation you have nailed it in this video. Thanks.
Pete, love your reviews and the simple way you explain things like Smash factor etc. Im relatively new to golf and going to actually have lessons soon so to know these things before hand is just great. I have a Ping 425 max in the bag so glad the Ping came out top for you.
shame you didn't have the Mizuno ST Max driver as its just been released looks to be super forgiving with amazing efficiency & spin numbers from across the face
😊Thank you for the review. I tried Qi10 and it felt great. I saw that during this period I won many championships. Qi10
Great video Peter. Thanks. Might be tempted to change from my Ping G430 LS
I just was fitted for the Ping g430 10k! I’m going with the ping tour black 2.0 shaft. Great driver! I’m excited for the season!
That’s an intense analysis of everything to determine the driver! Good luck peter
Great video, very insightful of what went into your decision to choose a driver
Excited to try some of these drivers out!
Very good video as usual! This outcome makes me happy, as I preordered my G430 Max 10K yesterday 🥰
Love how concise this summary was. Great insights. 🙏🏼⛳️
Great choice in the G430 max 10k. I play it as well as the fairway and hybrid. I also play the Ping Blueprint S irons and the new cleveland RTX Wedges and Ping PLD Primt Tyne 4 putter.
Great video, loved all the comparisons and categories used. 👍🏻👍🏻
In the market for a new driver, 3 wood, 5 and putter. Just got fit for irons and landed on the Cobra Cb’s. Been waiting for you to start this years series up 😂
Very surprised at the results. Really thought your ego would have picked an LS driver as in previous bag builds! Good to see you have become sensible 😂😂 good luck for the upcoming season. Looking forward to the QFTO series. 👍👍
Didn't see that coming. Pete going for a sensible driver! What next cavity back irons....?
👀👀
Your team does the best visuals and organization of content in videos, and it's not even close.
Thank you! We work hard to get it looking as good as it does. Thanks for the feedback!
This was a very good video. Short, succinct, insightful, and to the point. Great stuff.
Love the build my bag and QFTO series. Great quality videos, very informative and easy to understand. Keep up the excellent work everyone
Any chance we could ever see a 2023 WITB VS 2024 WITB to demonstrate the gains or impact of the old gear VS new gear? Maybe even go with further year gaps as a nostalgia trip and to see how tech evolved?
Maybe broken down to different parts of the bag like your 2023 driver VS 2024 driver, iron etc.
Not sure how appealing the idea is or not, I just feel it'd be really cool to see some of the old legend clubs face off against their new counterparts.
Great video Peter. I have been playing Ping for a number of years. I agree, equipment is very subjective but I truly believe that Ping made the best woods in the game.
Thanks Peter. Great video short and sharp.
13:17 We all agree that feel and sound are the same, hence your earplugs comment - The PING 10k was instantly disqualified when my buddy and I tested the new drivers due to the loud CLANG sound it made. PING states on their website that the 10k is their loudest driver to make a powerful impression - no thanks. Surprised to hear you say that you liked it! But like you said - subjective. The TM LS was gorgeous and muted sounding. But regardless of that variable, I think you're on the right track for your Quest. Now .....BLUEPRINT S!!!!!
Very insightful, love the section on sound and feeling how we become emotionally attached to our golf clubs
It makes a real difference
Kudos Pete! This is the most comprehensive comparison made of in the market drivers I've seen in many years.
Love the video Peter. I keep hearing so many good things about the Ping driver.
Not too much of a surprise given everyone else has said forgiving but long. Think it will be in many TH-cam bags this year. Thanks Pete. Food for thought 👍
Great video. I’m an average golfer who wouldn’t really see the difference in performance between QI10 and Ping G430. And being a TaylorMade loyal, I’m happy with my choice of the QI10 Max!
I hit a couple hundred balls with one last week and my numbers made it the winner for me as well. I just wish they could get the sound as good as the feel but I will learn to love it because I cannot argue with results
Good video just wish I could have seen the dry ball data. Only time will tell how consistent the Ping is. Can’t wait to see the videos yet to come. Thanks
Greatest golf channel on youtube. Lowers my Blood Pressure just watching lol
Love the fact that you are making this video and theres snow on the ground haha! Thats dedication!
Would wanted to see one of the PXGs available. Even if its the Gen-5 with the included fitting or even Gen-6 or Black-Ops??
So taking someones word for best driver and surprisingly its one of the big 3 who most likely contribute to his financial well-being. I seen last years video and several others of people hitting the Wilson dynapower, which i have hit myself, and by far for the price it is insane.
That's why I bought the g430max I hit it 10 times in a sim hit the dead center every time. I have never had a driver do that. Other than my burner mini
This was the driver I was hoping you would put in the bag! Hope it treats u well and gives u more fairways!
I bought a ping g425 driver after struggling with several others. It’s the best driver I’ve ever used and has made me a huge fan of ping. I plan on getting the max 10k soon
What a great, to the point and informative test. I hit the button.
Making this sensible choice could save you a few shots each round, great for your quest for the open. Also hitting fewer wayward drives will boost your confidence and help your mind game. Can't wait for more videos of you doing a full round.
Great video, informative and right on in my opinion. Now if Ping would get rid of the turbulators and go gloss black, I'd be all in !
Turn up for the books! Thought smoke or Qi 10 might’ve taken it! Looking forward to this mate! 👍🏻
Nice coverage and content with your personal perspective!
Great choice, the print very much like the old g400 max, long, forgiving. Wish I had waited 6 months before I went for the titleist
Love the build my bag vids👍
Your segways are on point as ever Peter! Great informative video all in one video…except the Mizuno ST-max230 have heard a bit of noise regarding this new iteration
I love these videos, well done Pete.
@10:40 Ah, the classic Ping Taylormade Qi10 LS 😏
Grew up with clubs from the 80's n 90's. Can't help but hit these modern drivers from the centre.
I just ordered mine, pairing it with a Ventus 6s Blue, never going to miss a fairway this year
Thanks Peter, that's a very informativ review of the complete drive range! You are viewing on so many different aspects that at the end of the process really the best driver for you goes in the bag. But I'm more the guy who likes to hold the things simple - if you i have a to make a shot of then i also know that i struggle if i think on 20 different aspects by doing a swing. I also think that all models have nearly the same flexibility in the face because they are all tested in a robot and the speed is limited by rules. Do at the end i think the view on the driver standing behind the ball, the forgiveness by not center strikes and the spin rate are at the end the main important criteria for me. If I follow your review i would select maybe the qi10 ls, the ai smoke triple diamond or a Titleist driver - land i would be take at the end a Titleist or then TM model because i love decent classical looking sport parts. The Ping doesn't absolutely not suit my eyes, but that's a personal preference. With your review i got a fundament for selecting the theme right model at the end!! Thanks therefore.
I purchased the Callaway Rouge LS and got straighter drives and can draw the ball easier also get more roll out for a longer drive than my old ping driver
@7:40 small mistake in the on-screen graphics. Pete's talking about the AI Smoke Max but the graphic says Triple Diamond and then with the closeup of the driver @7:50 you clearly see it's the Max but the graphic also says Triple Diamond.
Are you playing with Snow on the ground!? I love it! That's real Golf
Most courses are closed with snow on the ground. At least they are like that where I live.
I have the Qi10 LS..so far I'm enjoying it
Rick yet another great video, keep em coming !
Great video, enjoyed the thoughtful analysis. Question: do you check swingweight of the drivers with your chosen shaft? Just asking because I know Ping often usually counterbalanced shafts due to the heavy head weight. Just wondering if that might have led to you finding the middle of the Ping more often.
My favorite part? When he was talking about look behind the ball of the AI smoke and the b roll video was of the taylormade behind the ball.....😅
Still playing the original Ping G from 2016, but this new 10K Max has my attention!
Really looking forward to testing the Ping driver after watching this! 🙂👏
Ask for this every year, so glad you made it happen!
Excellent choice mate. I'll be trading in my Ping 425 sft as soon as the wife give me the OK.😆. Best of luck with it this year!!
Great video. You’ll really enjoy the G430 max 10k, especially on a bad striking day when even your worst shots will be ok. I have the regular Max and I can’t believe the results even from some awful swings 😎
i knew as soon as you first reviewed the g430 max 10k that it’d be in your bag, you found your club!!
Love your videos I just subscribed to your channel and am new to golf. Thank you for all your videos and tips :)
