Ping’s G430 family of fairway woods and hybrids share the weight-saving technology of carbon composite on the crown with the speed benefits of a face structure that wraps around the sole and crown for better overall flexing.
The new G430 driver family, which includes the neutral flight, ultra-forgiving Max (RRP $995), the increasingly draw-biased SFT and the compact, low-spinning LST (RRP $1,050), continues the company’s theme of forgiveness. These drivers put more weight in the extreme perimeter but also feature thinner, more forgiving faces, as well.
TaylorMade Stealth 2 drivers take another bold step in moving to fully carbon composite constructions, this time with special attention to making mis-hits more like centre hits.
The line includes high-forgiveness, draw-enhancing fairway woods and hybrids (the HD models), the easier launching, faster-faced standard models and better player options with the more iron-like flight of the Stealth Plus hybrid and multiple adjustability and driver-like face of the titanium Stealth Plus fairway wood.
The three Cobra Aerojet drivers look to combine the swing speed enhancing benefits of aerodynamic bodies with the distance-enhancing benefits of lower spin, a faster-face and increased forgiveness.
The Cobra Aerojet fairway woods and hybrids use a revolutionary, bridge-like internal weight bar that pushes weight low and forward for lower spin and higher launch.
The new Callaway Paradym driver family uses a fully carbon composite midsection that comprises much of the entire body of the clubhead and is 44 percent lighter than if it were made of titanium.
Callaway’s new collection of Paradym fairway woods and hybrids makes use of an internal structure that joins the crown and sole at the heel and toe areas.
