OUR TAKE

Ping’s engineering roots shine clearly in the new G400 Max. At 460cc, it offers major performance benefits that some players will find extremely appealing. It’s called “Max” because it takes everything built into the standard G400 to the very edge. Expect a high MOI, high stability and forgiveness, high launch, and for some, a heavy helPing of extra yards. With the addition of this model, there are very few players who couldn’t find a Ping driver to fit their needs.

FITTER COMMENTS

“The ultimate in forgiveness. High-launching, mid- to low-spin driver that’s the most stable Ping has ever produced. Provides a larger profile (460cc vs. 445cc) than the standard G400, giving some players added confidence at address and even more forgiveness on mis-hits.”
