How do you improve on a line of drivers that had a member of the family win the coveted Most Wanted Driver in 2018?  That's certainly a tough task for any group of engineers.  But the really smart guys in the lab coats in the rooms where nobody is allowed to go in Phoenix are betting they have done just that.   And they have gone into uncharted waters to do so. 

PING has been if not the last , then most certainly the last major equipment company to produce a driver with movable weights.   For years PING has stated that it had enough technology built into each version of it's drivers that you need not worry about unscrewing plugs, or sliding bars, or inserting cogs etc.   They had done all the work for you and the driver would work just fine, and they did thank you very much. 

Well take a close look at the rear of the new G410 Plus pictured below.  You'll see three possible ports for a movable weight, center for neutral, on the heel for draw bias and out on the toe for fade bias.   People have finally gotten what they have clamored for. 

And for those who prefer a driver with a bit of a draw bias and don't need to change if from that, well PING hasn't forgotten you, as it made the G410 SFT--Straight Flight Technology--and it otherwise has all the same technology.  

 

Will this movable technology along with all the hosel adjustment that can moved into eight different configurations make one of the best drivers on the market year in and year out even better?

Well we're going to leave it to three dedicated and trustworthy and oh alright, it's OK to say-- LUCKY as well-- members of the My Golf Spy forum to test, play, review--and keep-- these drivers.  The members of the forum will anxiously be awaiting the results.   

The testers will be getting these drivers pretty much the same time they will be hitting retail shelf's, so you will be among the very first consumers on the course with these incredible looking drivers. 

 

 

HOW TO APPLY:

in this thread - and ONLY in this thread - tell us the following:

 

1. Your first name and home state-US Only

2. Your current handicap and driver swing speed

3. Your current driver

4. List whether you would like to review the G410 Plus or G410 SFT

Pretty straightforward!

 

Good luck, and we'll be announcing the testers in this forum early next week!

Christmas in March! Another awesome opportunity from MGS. This would be an awesome club too put through the ringer. The SFT seems like a great choice for myself because it takes the temptation of “tinkering” out of the equation and allows you to work on the fundamentals of your swing to correct ball flight. Knowing the club is going to perform consistently every time, any flaws in the ball flight are chalked up as user error / poor strike location, and not the clubs fault. (We all have at one time chased that sliding weight back and forth mid-round in search of the perfect drive, only to be letdown on the following tee box.) 

 

Fingers crossed, and best of luck to all my fellow spies!

I would like to try this driver. Being 71 I need some extra distance of course. I tried my friend’s earlier version with an 8.5 loft and blew it past my Titleist drive by 15 yards. I might become a true believer if I had enough time to work with it.

Would thoroughly enjoy testing/reviewing the new G Ping driver. I have an older G model and need improvement help. Don’t we all? Handicap is a variable, but I live the game and the walk. I would enjoy chatting with others my age...70...3-4 rounds a week and a slow swing speed.80 mph.Sound familiar? I prefer a higher loft...10.5 would be something I’d try. Good luck to all who would be appreciative if selected.
