Wow, that one looks brand new. Did you just buy it or have you had that one for a while?

No that pic was from shortly after I purchased the second one as I foolishly sold my first one in search of more distance. It took me a couple of years to realize that the G400 MAX is the GOAT. I found a like new condition one from 2nd swing and got back the magic.

 

Here is what it looks like now.

Turbulators are the greatest alignment methodolgy ever created.  I'll stand by that.  Tried TM/Titiest/Callaway drivers and I cannot get used to an alignment aid because none of them look to be in the center of the club face to me.

 

Long live Turbulators!

The g400 series may be the greatest series of drivers ever.  Total package.

Another season ticked off for the goat, cant see anything changing next year.

Can I join the club? 

 

First post, playing golf a year in a stock Wilson x31 beginner set and beginning to upgrade my bag. 

 

My high hc of 27 is Loving this thing. Played 9 holes a few days ago and hit 7 fairways out of 7 for the first time!

I'm not a member of this prestigious club either, but my wife is.

 

Her G400 Max is a lot of fun to swing. So forgiving. I was going to pick up a G400 Max for myself, but they've held their value incredibly well so went a different route. Bought a ST-Z 220 head for cheap and put in a Lin-Q Purple shaft, and forgiveness is on par with the G400 Max (but cheaper).

 

I can see why people are still gaming this club, it's still such a relevantly good performer.

I would apply for temporary membership....

Turbulators are turbulators

I was able to find a 9 degree and a 10.5 in good shape for reasonable prices thanks to some good guys on this site. 
 

First ball with the 9 degree was just like my old G400 max. 4 mph slower ball speed than my stealth 2, about 200 more rpm’s of spin…… but it stopped 1.7 yards right of the target line. I hit 40 more balls. Tightest dispersion of any driver practice session I’ve had in a couple of years. 

 

Not sure why I ever sold the old one, but happy to be back in the club. Long live the GOAT!

What length does everyone play their MAX at?

1 inch short of standard, heavier shaft

1” Short of stock one with counter balanced shaft 45.75 or ping tour shaft 45.25?

I originally had stock 55g CB shaft, and then put in Ventus 6S. Thinking I need to cut it down.

[JAMH03]

What's the best driver w/o turbulators?

So anyway, the G430 Max is so darn good, but short of that, the G400 Max is still the GOAT.

[Volnut]

I'm having my best driving year ever with the 430 Max. However I'm not selling my 400 with the small crack in the toe nor my backup 400. 

 

Side note, after the crack the 400 was hotter than ever. Similar to the composite bats that get hotter until catastrophic failure. 😂

[southpaw72]

I still think about my G400max and wonder why it’s not in the bag at the moment. There’s no good answer
