Watch this before you buy what is the most expensive club in your bag, The 2023 PING G430 Max Driver was and still is a great club but is the new 2024 PING G430 Max 10K Driver better??? Lets find out.
Just purchased the 10K and it’s my first Ping driver. Coming from an older Srixon draw biased head, the lower spin numbers, overall consistency in dispersion is what sold me. I was up around mid 3000s spin on the Srixon; with the new 10K I’m well below 2400. My club head speed is around 100-105 max so I can attest to those spin numbers shown in your test. I cannot wait to go play a round on my home course and see those carry distances. I too with range balls was coming up with about 250/260 carry which was significantly more from the Srixon driver. I was fitted into the Alta 55 CB shaft in stiff. Glad to see I’ve done right by purchasing the newer Ping model 10K.
Glad you enjoyed the video, What drove me to the new purchase was the need for a new shaft so thought "may as well buy the new driver 10K", hahahaha, the test 6 where I used the new head in the old Alta CB shaft was like, ok driver head gives more or less extra 10 yard carry so certainly more spring and lower spin of this head, would not rule out a Tour Chrome shaft as for me that bought an extra 10 yards so more or less 20 yards gained with new driver head tech and correct shaft for trajectory. Probably make another test of the Tour Chrome Shaft in the old G430 head just to finalize I was for sure losing some carry due to the shaft. Will be getting the G430 3 Wood so will make a video on that as well in the near future :)
@@gillgarethHave you had to use any of the Flat settings on the G430 10K head? When I went for my fitting on the standard lie/9* I was consistently making contact out the heel side and still showing decent spin numbers and yardages. Once I purchased, I took to the range and tried the Flat/9* setting and was straight on middle of the face. I observed excellent dispersion, much tighter and ball speed jumped into the 150s.
Why didn’t you just put the new chrome shaft into 23 max then you would have a more even test.
Exactly....pretty pointless when the 2 shafts have completely different characteristics 🤷♂️

Imagine doing a club review of two completely different lofts with two different shafts, lol. Like what actually is this LMAO. Get real
So disappointed in myself. I couldn’t keep my eyes open for the duration of the video. What was his conclusion ?
