The best-selling fairway wood of the year offers distance and forgiveness

For most recreational players, fairway woods are some of the most important clubs in the bag. They serve as fairway finders off the tee when your driver can’t be trusted, and they’re essential on longer holes – when you’re trying to reach the green in two, or simply get as far up the fairway as possible.

There’s just one problem with fairway woods: they can be notoriously difficult to hit, especially for high handicappers. Therefore, ease of launching is a coveted feature. And that’s exactly why Ping’s G440 Max fairway wood earned the distinction of being the best-selling fairway wood of the year on Fairway Jockey.

Designed for a wide range of golfers, the Ping G440 Max fairway wood features a long face that inspires confidence off the tee. Strategically positioned center of gravity and high MOI ensure stable, high launch performance.

At GOLF’s 2025 ClubTest, 10.6 handicapper Joe Kowalski raved about the club’s distance and forgiveness.

“I felt free and easy hitting it,” he said. “Had the furthest distance too. I like a matte finish. Great feel. Mishits didn’t even feel like it. Yardage gain and low spin ball flight. Trifecta! I’m buying!”

The Ping G440 Max fairway wood is available in a number of lofts ranging from 3-wood (15 degrees) to 9-wood (24 degrees), giving players maximum flexibility at the top of the bag.

PING G440 Max Custom Fairway Wood

The G440 fairway family (MAX, LST, SFT) reinforces PING’s reputation as the Tour model of choice with a redesigned face structure and low center of gravity system. The face is larger for greater confidence off the tee, while maintaining a CG location that delivers high launch performance off the ground. The MAX model (which will suit most golfers) is available in five lofts (including a new 4-wood) to provide more gap solutions. HIGH MOI Easy to launch, stable design increases forgiveness. FLEXIBLE FACE Maraging steel face flexes for increased ball speed and optimizes spin. HIGHER FACE PROFILE Improves performance off the tee, maintains a low center of gravity. FREE-HOSEL DESIGN Saves weight to lower center of gravity, optimize launch/spin and increase forgiveness.
