The most forgiving driver in the G430 family and potentially the most forgiving driver on the market, the PING G430 MAX Driver features a shallower, thinner VFT forged face that generates PING's fastest ball speed to date. Spinsistency, which consists of a variable roll radius, contributes to the newly found speed by reducing spin across the face, resulting in consistently longer drivers.
While it was universally lauded for its performance, the only knock on the G425 MAX was the sound it produced at impact. PING addressed these concerns through a new internal rib structure and increased crown, skirt, and sole curvature that combine to create a much more desirable sound.
A movable 25-gram, high-density tungsten weight at the club’s rear allows players to dial in their desired ball flight or combat an unwanted shot shape. PING's Trajectory Tuning 2.0 hosel offers eight positions to adjust loft and lie.
Stock shafts include PING's mid-to-high launch ALTA CB Black, mid-launch Tour 2.0 Chrome, low-launch Tour 2.0 Black, Project X's high-launch HZRDUS Smoke Red RDX, and Mitsubishi's low-launch Kai'li White.

Ping has been my brand for 25 years. Recently I started playing with my Ping G430 (successor of the 425) Max driver and it gives me much (more) confidence to hit a straight and long ball from the TEE. I love it.
Yes, I recommend this product.
