Not sure why, maybe I’m like the guy a cloud always follows, but share the above results with golf experts and then I get these responses “Why is it 7 longer is the question?  Ballspeed?  Is his spin bad, launch bad, etc etc “ I just say well this is what is being put it out there as a result. Now if I were making a statement and I were asked those questions, I would probably say I don’t have a launch monitor I’m basing it off of playing golf every day and knowing where my drive ends up and if it’s out there 10 to 20 yards longer I’m saying the technology in the club obviously has made me deliver to head to the ball better so I don’t know if anybody wants to expound on this.

it’s the shop owner, he has unlimited access to Trackman and is a Ping Authorized fitter and also has been in the industry as an owner and fitter for years.

I trust his word, he doesn’t just say numbers for the same of saying them.

He popped in one shaft from one head into the next and compared heads ups - could be a better fit, better smash, regardless - better for him at a low cap.

Holy crap. Looks like a 425 Max 10.5*, 425 5W  & 425 3Hyb are making their way into my back on release date. Best looking woods PING has come out with

Lol yeah they do look good, got that swat team assault vehicle look lol!

[agood3putt]

Hopefully (and I would assume so) that the G425 range of woods/hybrids has the same adapter as the G410.

It does

[sniper]

That line looks great. Don’t know that I’ll change from the g410 woods. Very interested in the hybrids. I’m not in the market for irons but I can’t wait to see g425’s and the other new irons down the road. 

[Konklifer]

Well, it looks like it will be G425 at the top of the bag for me very soon. Driver, fairways, and hybrids all look great. 

[animalgolfs]

I'll buy the driver and not look back from my 400lst

Me too.  They've gone aggressive looking.  I like it.

[Konklifer]

They have greatly improved the crown of the driver. I did not like the tail end of the crown on the G410. Eliminating the turbulators on the fairway is also a phenomenal improvement. I may be going back to a 5w soon.

Sounds fantastic. MOI up to 10k!

 

that being said the 100 AUD price increase is substantial. 

[GolfTurkey]

• 12 degree loft available, check.
• less spin than G400Max, check.
• higher MOI than G400Max, check.
• Adjustable COG, check.
• Just bought a Sim Max and carefully hid the purchase from the wife, check.????????

No price increase in the US.

Those ferrules are super busy. Amazing how Ping has transitioned from no ferrules to this in only a handful of years.

 

I wouldn't be entirely surprised if those are a japanese only thing. They prefer their clubs to be more ornate and decorated than the US market.

[Wenz]

Anyone else getting a throwback to the Ping Anser vibe?
Finally a company that doesn't plaster outlandish colour on their woods.

[Stetson]

Might have to buy a 5w and hot melt to get an LST like spin reduction.

Well that is good to hear. I understand that the supply chain is not fully functional and a global release is not an option. No hard feelings towards PING. Just wish I could snag one of these bad boys for retail from overseas lol

100% Agree on both. The Anser vibe is not a bad thing either.

I’m guessing it’s all speculation on when they’re going to be available because I was just down at my fitters and they made some phone calls  and they were not able to get release date information so there is no certainty in the United States from what I’m finding out Standing there while they were on the phone

Not speculation.....just unpacking my fitting irons.

[TJ83]

Finally, a sound clip and it sounds lovely ??!! I still use my g400 max, funny thing is on paper with my SS I should use a "low spin" head, but the g400max with the right shaft and loft setting is the best driver I've ever used. Seems like the 425 Max will be an upgrade, ill wait patiently until its released and grab one?

Loving the new ferrules on the irons!

[GolfTurkey]

$899 for the driver and $499 for the hybrids in Australia. GULP.

[Frid_the_kid]

Golfturkey:  a bit misleading with the AUS dollar quote.  Someone with knowledge last page said no increase in price from 410 release.

No price increase in the US I believe, this GolfTurkey is a brush Turkey i.e. an Australian native,

Please let the LST fairway wood be available in 5w as well.

According to the JP spec sheet, there is no LST 5 wood.

[Stetson]

You could place an order for the highest loft possible as the request. Maybe they can get you one as high as 15.5 if they ask it out. Then turn it up. 
 

or get a 5w and hot melt it to knock down spin. 
 

neither is ideal, I am in the same spot as you
