Ping G440 Max Driver Drops to $447, a 28% Discount

Ping's G440 Max driver is discounted to $447 at Carl's Golfland, a $170 cut off its $617 list price. The 28% discount extends across the G440 line, including the low-spin LST and draw-biased SFT models.

What's new in the G440 range?

Ping lowered the center of gravity across the G440 lineup compared to the previous G430 generation, a change the company says helps golfers launch the ball higher while keeping spin down. The lower CG also lets fitters reduce loft to add ball speed without sacrificing flight. Every G440 driver now features an adjustable back weight, letting golfers shift mass toward a common miss, such as a heel or toe strike, and the Carbonfly Wrap crown — previously exclusive to the G430 LST — is now standard across the whole range.

How do the Max, LST and SFT models differ?

The G440 Max is the all-around, forgiveness-focused option. The LST is the lower-spinning model built for higher swing speeds, with a smaller 450cc head and a slight fade bias. The SFT carries a stronger draw bias, with back-weight settings for Draw and Draw+, aimed at golfers working to eliminate a slice. Reviewers have found the range notably forgiving and more stable at impact than its G430 predecessor.
