Used Ping G425 Max Driver
Who’s It For?
PING has always delivered an excellent combination of distance, forgiveness, and consistency off the tee with its drivers. The new PING G425 drivers, introduced in 2021, are no different. PING has combined innovations of the past with new features to take MOI to heights never seen before. Of the three models, the G425 Max driver will fit the widest range of golfers and is designed to deliver high launch, low spin, and exceptional forgiveness. The G425 LST model is designed for fast swingers and golfers that may need to reduce spin, while the G425 SFT is a more forgiving model with added draw bias for players that frequently slice the ball.
The Tech Story
PING took MOI to the Max with the G425 Max driver by combining key technologies from the G400 Max and the G410 Plus drivers into one clubhead. Improvements to DragonFly Technology have created more weight savings that have been positioned at distinctive settings over a smaller area than G410 drivers to help bring the center of gravity lower and farther back without sacrificing performance. The center of gravity can be adjusted with a 26-gram tungsten CG-shifting weight in the back of the clubhead, allowing golfers to create a draw, neutral, or fade bias in the three different settings. Overall, the G425 Max offers 14 percent higher MOI than the G410 Plus driver at the three different CG-shifting weight positions. Three of the weight position and loft combinations possible with the G425 Max exceed a combined MOI of 10,000. The G425 Max also features T9S+ forged clubface that flexes at impact and an internal rib structure inside the Ti-8-1-1 body that delivers a pleasing sound. And of course, the G425 Max driver also includes PING’s trademark turbulators on the crown that increase clubhead speed through aerodynamics. Last but not last, PING’s 8-lobe Trajectory Tuning 2.0 Adjustable Hosel allows golfers to adjust loft and lie to fit their preferred launch and spin characteristics.
