G440 R6 900
• Ping lowered the
clubface height by 8 percent and made the face thinner. This encourages hotter centre-face contact for optimal launch and more ball speed. • A more open interior hosel section saves mass that lowers the centre of gravity by 12 percent for higher launch and less spin. • A carbon-composite piece wraps around the crown to save mass for a deeper, more forgiving centre of gravity. • Top 5 in Performance, low-, middle-, high-handicaps • 17, 20, 23, 26, 30, 34 degrees (eight-way adjustable hosel)
