Intense Feel of Dual Carbon with Reduced Weight

Boasting Top-Level Straightness and Exceptional Forgiveness

Viktor Hovland (Norway) and Joaquin Niemann (Chile) are both top-class golfers, representing the PGA Tour and LIV Golf, respectively. Hovland, equipped with the G440 K driver, has continued to add victories, recording a total of seven wins on the PGA Tour. Niemann, who also uses this driver, moved to LIV Golf in 2022 and became the player with the most wins last year.


The core feature of the G440 K driver is its Dual Carbon Fly Wrap Crown. By utilizing the sole structure and Pre Hosel technology, the club's weight has been reduced, and the center of gravity (CG) has been positioned lower and deeper. This achieves a high moment of inertia (MOI), ensuring outstanding straightness and forgiveness.


The Pre Hosel reduces weight in the heel area, helping to maintain ball speed even in that zone. The sweet spot has also been expanded toward the heel. In addition, a 32g trajectory control back weight (neutral, draw, fade) has been applied, delivering the highest MOI in Ping's history for a trajectory-tunable driver. The T9S+ face further enhances ball speed.

The back weight of the G440 K is 4g heavier than that of the previous G430 MAX 10K. As a result, the CG is moved even lower and deeper, providing both higher ball speed and maximized MOI. Golfers can square the face to match their desired shot shape and control their ball flight with greater precision.


The crown's turbulators reduce air resistance during the swing, increasing both clubhead speed and ball speed. In addition, the composite crown bridge and internal sole rib structure suppress unnecessary vibrations, resulting in a solid yet crisp impact sound.



The G440 series has expanded its lineup beyond the G440 K, now including the low-spin, advanced player model G440 LST, the standard G440 MAX, and the anti-slice G440 SFT. Except for the LST, all models are also available in an ultra-lightweight HL (senior) option. Fitting and purchases are available at Ping’s headquarters fitting center and authorized dealers nationwide.
