The year’s best-selling fairway wood offers distance and forgiveness

For most recreational players, fairway woods are some of the most important clubs in the bag. They serve as fairway-finders off the tee when your driver can’t be trusted, and they’re essential on longer holes — when you’re trying to reach the green in two, or simply want to get as far down the fairway as possible.

There’s only one problem with fairway woods: They can be notoriously hard to hit — especially for high handicappers. That’s why ease of launch is a coveted characteristic. And that’s exactly why Ping’s G440 Max fairway wood earned the distinction of the year’s top-selling fairway wood at Fairway Jockey.

Drivers

Designed to benefit a wide range of golfers, the Ping G440 Max fairway wood has a tall face to inspire confidence off the tee. Strategically-positioned CG and a high MOI help deliver stable, high-launching performance.

At GOLF’s 2025 ClubTest, 10.6-handicap Joe Kowalski raved about the club’s distance and forgiveness.

“Felt free and easy hitting it,” he said. “Also had the farthest distance. Love matte finish. Fabulous feel. Mishits didn’t even feel like it. Yardage gains and trajectory with low spin. Trifecta! I’m buying!”

The Ping G440 Max fairway wood is available in a number of lofts, ranging from 3-wood (15 degrees) all the way to 9-wood (24 degrees), giving players maximum flexibility at the top of the bag.

PING G440 Max Custom Fairway Wood

The G440 fairway family (MAX, LST, SFT) advances PING’s reputation as a Tour-preferred model of choice through a re-designed face structure and low CG system.
