Six researched ratings, lower (blue) through to elite (gold).
Where it wins
- Feel86
- Sound85
- Looks85
Watch
Rated highest for feel and sound; its softest dimension is workability.
You want a long, very forgiving hybrid with an easy high flight and a lovely, solid feel.
You want a low-spin, workable players' head or the newest speed — a compact utility or newer Ping fits better.
Pros
- Very forgiving — an even higher-MOI head than the G410
- Long and high-launching, with a much improved, richer feel and sound
- An adjustable hosel for loft and lie
Cons
- A neutral, forgiveness-first head with little scope to shape shots
- A 2021 model, now a few years old
- No movable weight — hosel tuning only
By dimension
Forgiveness
ExcellentA Ping strength — a big head with a heavy sole weight pushes MOI higher still, holding a mishit fast and straight.
Distance
StrongLong and high — a slim, wrapping steel face springs hard for strong pace and a taller flight than the older model.
Workability
ModestA neutral, straight flyer — an adjustable hosel tunes loft and lie, but the big, forgiving head won't shape shots.
Feel
ExcellentA step up on the G410 — a dense, rewarding strike, silkier and warmer through impact than before.
Sound
ExcellentA deep, mellow note at impact — fuller and more rounded than the G410's brighter click, and kind to the ear.
Looks at address
ExcellentA clean, mid-to-large Ping head — a simple, reassuring shape with a smooth crown that sits square behind the ball.
