Yup, std length, Alta CB55

Feels like a Orange Whip!

Another thing to look at then is if that's the proper length - it could be as simple as having the shaft shortened.  But I wouldn't do that without checking first.

Taylor Made Stealth 2 10.5 Diamana S plus 60  Aldila  R flex   - 42.25 inches 

SMT 4 wood bassara R flex, four wood head, 3 wood shaft

Ping G410 7, 9 wood  Alta 65 R flex

Srixon ZX5 MK II  5-GW - UST recoil Dart 65 R flex

India 52,56 (60 pending)  UST recoil 75's R flex  

Evon roll ER 5 32 inches

It's our offseason so auditioning candidates - looking for that right mix of low spin long, more spin around the greens - TBD

Exactly why you should go to a fitter first - :)

That’s for sure.
I’m trying to work it in the same time my irons come in end next week.

I’m still bummed that the fitter talked me into the plus instead of the LST

Has anyone seen a plus without plus on the head. I bought a used G410 plus and everything looks right but it did  not say plus on the sole or anywhere else.

Everyone I’ve seen has the Plus on bottom.Image1616163586.054601.jpg

Where are you shopping that you're finding what appear to be counterfeit products... want to make sure to avoid them 😬.

If I could revive this thread a bit I picked up an LST head a couple of weeks ago. It was nice to see some roll out. I need to mess with the settings a bit. I do suspect that I’m getting some more distance than I was with the 410 plus.

I've seen a good many comments suggesting the G400 was a better design yielding better numbers.  It somewhat defies logic, but my recent testing of the G425 models against my G410P showed no improvement.  Of the 3 models, the SFT and LST were best for me. Granted, it was only from a fitting and limited hits, but does provide indication of final result.

Distance and/or dispersion? My personal experience is that my 410 SFT is straighter but with a slight loss of distance. I'm going for another driver fitting but with the idea of upgrading the Alta shaft - or maybe just going with the Max or maybe......??

I’m not a fan of the Alta shafts.
I wanted to try the G410+ with a different shaft but can’t get thru the People that are staying in FL.
I believe Covid has kept many folks down here in FL this year. Renters are hanging around longer also.

They were actually pretty close, slight edge to the SFT.  I find the SFT beneficial in my G400 3w & 5w.  That's what I love about PING, they really do a great job designing for all players and swing types.

Both the 400 and 410 LSTs were most wanted drivers - I loved my 400 but a fitter fit me for the 410 max saying I was gaining distance which I was that day on trackman. My spin rates were okay but I was swinging well - swinging normal or a bit off and those spin rates go bonkers. My dispersion was ng with that club - different shaft greatly improved that but spin was often an issue.

Still too early to tell with the LST after one range session and one round in 25 mph winds. But it shows promise.

Wondering if the G410+ would be a help for me to get some forgiveness and keep spin down compared to my EF SZ.

The plus spun more for me than the LST; I would think the LST has the spin reduction you’re looking for and is more forgiving than the Ef SZ .

On another note, I hit both the plus and the LST better than the 425 max...
