Ping’s G440 LST is doing something a low-spin driver isn’t supposed to do

Robot testing reveals Ping’s G440 LST driver delivers unexpected forgiveness for a low-spin model, matching or beating max forgiveness heads in key dispersion and carry metrics.

What 3 years of Callaway driver testing reveals about face forgiveness

Callaway’s Quantum driver is put through Golf Digest robot testing against Paradym Ai Smoke and Elyte models, revealing how face technology has evolved and whether the newest release is worth the upgrade.

April 1st, 2026

Tiger At 50: Testing Woods’ iconic Titleist 975D driver against his modern gamer
