Which PING G430 Fairway Woods Is Best For You?

The G430 Fairway Woods Go The Distance

The exceptional G430 Fairway Woods, have Carbonfly Wrap to deliver more distance by positioning the CG closer to the force line to maximize ball speed, resulting in higher, longer carries, whether fit for the MAX or SFT model. The lightweight composite crown wraps into the heel and toe sections of the skirt, creating weight savings of 10 grams which are reallocated to achieve the lower the CG and increase ball speed. The composite also plays a role in the pleasing sound. A tungsten backweight extends the perimeter weighting to ensure forgiveness.


Two proven technologies from the previous generation carry over and contribute to distance gains and spin consistency across the clubface. With FaceWrap Technology, a variable-thickness, high-strength maraging steel face wraps into the sole and crown of the stainless steel head, generating more flexing for faster ball speed and higher launch for greater distance. The variable roll radius of Spinsistency improves performance across the face (especially on thin shots) by reducing spin to increase ball speed from the maraging steel face.


Each of the models is engineered to help produce added distance and forgiveness for a variety of skill levels. The MAX fits the widest range of golfers with four options (3W/15°, 5W/18°, 7W/21°, 9W/24°), while the SFT is offered in three heads (3W/16°, 5W/19°, 7W/22°) with lighter swingweights to help square the face at impact.

The PING G430 Fairway Woods SFT For Shot Correction

The PING G430 SFT produces right to left shot correction in three heads (3W, 5W, 7W). If your shots normally veer to the left you may consider this fairway because it has a forgiving head that will help align your shots. Also golfers with a slower swing speed would benefit from the SFT’s generated clubhead speed that produces faster ball velocity and a higher launch.
