Love the honesty! That’s what we need
Always Claeb
I bought today the G410 SFT. Incredible driver. I hit draws with all other clubs but of some reason the driver tends to fade. Though I must say the ones in the right rough are really really long. But this SFT I can hit with same confidence as all other clubs. And it flies really straight and long. I also have stiff shafts in all other clubs but the heavier regular 65g shaft felt best for this driver.
Incredible driver, love also the sound and the feeling when sweet spot hit.
Hey Andy. I will be sticking with my Ping G 400 Max. The G 410 looks great though. Great review !
You decreased loft, so you had it in a open setting and then put it in draw bias. Wouldn't these just negate each other? You should of been properly fit before reviewing.
I have one in the S.F.T. version and love it. Not only looks awesome but performs the same way! Spider Dubiel
Me too! I luv it
Sounds like you need fitting for it?
Strike is king!! Try it again Andy...Swing better...;-)
Enjoyed your vid, what gripes me is that within the last couple of months I have traded in my old Ping Driver and 3 wood for the Ping G400, and immediately Ping bring out the 410. Looks like they have joined all the other greedy manufactures , a new club every 12 months, bring back the old days when you could rely on Ping to keep the same model for a couple of years. Must admit I’m extremely happy with my Ping SFT’s G400’s.
A tad unfair of you to publicly give a thumbs down review on the club. Based on how it looked, it was more the operator than the tool that was at fault...
I’ve upgraded from a G400 to a G410. They are virtually identical except for one major thing. The G400 was not very good when playing into the wind. It just fell out of the air for me. However, the G410 penetrates through the wind better and gets more distance. A little tip Andy, trying a Driver or any golf clubs on a seaside or links course is a bit unfair and doesn’t really give it a fair chance to perform to its potential. Try it on a normal course bud without the 40mph winds! Lol.
Were the poor strikes and left to right ball shape not down to you coming over the top rather than a bad club? I’m not criticising or blasting your opinion , I’m asking an honest question
Would love to see you hit the king cobra F9 driver
Will give it a try
Yes f9 review and epic
Having just changed from a G30 to G400 max would be interested to see how this club compares to what I think is possibly the best overall performing driver out there
There's a surprise it went the same distance as the six taylormade drivers they've brought out in the last few years , the 3 callaway epic drivers , the other ping driver and the titleist driver,
With that much variables in the data means swing is not dialed in to generate consistency. Also you are coming over the top on your driver swing which does not promote a draw.
Thanks Andy you're narrowing it down for me.
Great review Andy could you go into more detail about the thinking and the specs....of that shirt 😃
you love it?
@@TheAverageGolfer I do Andy but I don't think I could get away with wearing it on a sat morning at Kirkby😀
I'm surprised you'd be using a stiff shaft with what appears to be a low swing speed. This could have been your issue with this driver.
Still looks nice in Tenerife! Good review, I’ve always liked Ping but this didn’t get me as excited as some of the other clubs out there at the moment..
Hi Andy, A good honest review. I am out in Tenerife Week on Saturday for some Golf. Playing, Adeje, Beunavista, Abama, Amarilla and Americas. What courses are you filming, ?. All the best, Keep up the good work.
An honest review Andy.
Like that shirt.
Thanks
Seems like you’d get on better with the SFT or the 9 degree head in the ++ setting
Wanted to like this and the f9 but couldn't get any shaft in either to work at all. Tried ping max version same results then i tried the epic flash sub zero and totally different beast. Gained 5mph ball speed and 9/10 yds carry, epic flash sub will be the driver to beat in 2019 for me
thanks for the review - will look for your head to head with the gmax
I think that the G400 MAX will still be a better option for the majority of golfers as it offers more forgiveness.
Thank you for the test, when it gets warm here will have to try it, sounds like I’m staying with the G400.
Very honest and almost identical to my experience. I had it on fade and it was drawing. Previously I could never draw, and I whenever I connected, it went straight and I was using a $150 Cleveland driver. So ping, what am I doing wrong? I paid $700 AUD for it, and eBay is calling 😄👍
Always refreshing to get an honest review!
Cheers Rob
The shirt looks kind of Taylormade M6's. The location beautiful.
Thanks Andy. Why have they gone to the sliding weight system. I thought there 3 options in there last 3 or 4 models was great. Are they saying that TM & Callaway are on to something. Can't weight for the Team Average review.
It looked like you were hitting it pretty straight once you popped it into the draw setting, maybe only a slight fade (2-3 yards), compared to the much bigger fade with the neutral setting (15ish yards). As for dry ball data, I would imagine your strike varied quite a lot, which would explain the variance in numbers, not sure that should be considered a knock on the club.
Great review!
What if you are hitting the G30? Which is the better upgrade, 400 or 410?
It looked really windy, right/left crosswind, did that not affect your testing?
Tried it, hated it! Love my i210’s and stealth wedges! Hated the 410 driver! 😢😢 Was thinking of getting 410 hybrids to replace my G10’s, now NOT so sure! Another day another trial!
Beautiful location!
Thanks. Honest as always.
It’s time that Ping got into the adjustability of head weights. After all it’s been around for 15 years? or so.Manufacturers are forced to make changes to stay competitive. It doesn’t always mean these changes are for the better but, that’s marketing. To the mid - high handicapper this isn’t going to make a great deal of difference over the G400, just add to your Visa statement. Love my G400 and it’s turbulators and mat black finish.
A great honest review as always...that shirt!!
If i were hitting it straight like you i wouldn't be disappointed.
Really interesting! Have watched quite a few G410 reviews on youtube and yours is the first really negative one! I’m looking forward to trying it but might need to wait for the LS Tec version!
Not watched any yet Keith try to just give my opinion but I would alwys say try yourself all that matters
Apparently there is no LS tec version coming this year
Yup! The PING 410 Plus is not for you. Buddy!
True....
A lovely looking club, like the idea of adjustability . . . . ultimately if it doesn’t work . . .
Looking forward to the course review . . . costings too please 😉
I'm I the only one who thinks this is pretty ugly looking?? Think the g400 is a lot more classier looking.
Also as Rick shiels pointed out-what's the point in bringing our a sft version if you can move the weights about in this one anyway?
@@popeye5989 I'm with you I think the whole range looks cheap.
Course review tomorrow Brian
The Top of the Driver puts me off, Ping used to make lovely looking Drivers.
To me the weight seems like if I'm drinking I'll loose it...it should be a slide...but I'm game to try it out but I'm sure I will stay with the max
Don't drink and drive and there's no problem? 😁
Sort of looked like you were just not swinging well on this day.
I'm going buying the g400 max I was fitted for this weekend for 150 less quid
Could be the go this year, get last years models for heavy discounts and forsake 1% LOL
At last Andy some tells the truth your G400 max is a much better driver if you need a moveable weight but a bit of lead tape on the back of your driver head. In my humble opinion I think Ping have dropped a bolock making this Driver, they always made good looking no frills no bullshit drivers were you bought one took it out on the course and they just performed brilliantly.
Rick got great numbers from it; sure you have watched his review
Shiels PGA pro, draws or hooks everything. Andy on the flip side is an Average golfer, a normal fella. I much prefer Andy's views as he is far more representative of my own game.
Gazza Gee I agree with you but as a user of a G400 Max I was interested in more than one review of course. I bought my M4 irons based on the average golfer reviews and then a fit. I am a fan
Confusing comment doesn't help ?!
I’m not a fan of there choice in aerodynamics. The should have used a waved crown or something.
After hitting the PXG clubs,your going to have a hard time finding something better. HAHAHAHAHA
Great job on the videos my friend. 👍
Proves yet again no performance gains yr on yr, over 2-3 yr may see slight performance gains. If the average golfer spent their equipment budget on lessons they would see far bigger improvements. Biggest issue is practice time or lack of for average joe..
good job :)
Got some breeze there, Andy. Would you consider Liam's 3-hole challenge with the First Flight 1960's blades? #golfmates
The CB Alta shaft in the G410 is not the same as the one in the G400 Max. From MyGolfSpy: "PING has added an 8-gram tungsten plug to the butt section of the shaft. The plug shifts the balance point higher to accommodate heavier heads." The new CB Alta is 63g for Stiff and the older one is 59g. While swing weight for both clubs are set up to be D3, there is a slight difference in the overall weight. I personally prefer the Tour Shaft to the CB anyway. Counterbalance shaft is a bit hard to fit. You either love it or hate it.
F Lew I love the CB shaft but I’m a slow swinging old guy who gets a higher ball flight out of it. I understand exactly what you’re saying; it’s different. It gives me a kick through impact that I really need.
I appreciate the information in your comment.

The weight in the 410 SFT is heavier than the variable weight in the + version, according to PING the SFT will be beneficial for heavy slicers, whilst the + version is more for fine tuning the desired flight.
popeye - yes, I prefer the colour and underside of the G400 and not sure about the groove at the back of the crown replacing dragon fly. Maybe it will better in-hand.
@@Ryglado Dragonfly is still there its just been moved to the inside. When I bought my MAX last years I didn't really like the look of the top (bit busy to the eye), but after about two rounds I stopped noticing the look and only noticed the tremendous performance.
its better looking easily than the g400 version
All 3 under 2000 carried 250....
Yep saw that and they look pretty solid carry numbers for his SS.
Easy to spot a ‘hit job’
Can barely hear you over the waves 😂
Nice sound tho!
All down to strike mate!!!
Michael Solomon have you watched the on course head to head with G400max yet?
It didn't draw did it!......
You are wrong. he was hitting a fade in the neutral setting... changing the setting to a draw straightened out his shots quite a lot. I would say about 10-15 yards which is what the club setting was meant to do. If he was hitting it straight in the neutral configure, you would definitely have seen a draw. I think the comment someone made above about him not having the best ball striking day is accurate, and he also mentions this at the end of his video. On another day he would have had different results.
@@sonicpebble
Actually his isnt wrong...you are!!!
He was hitting a little push cut in the N setting so he switched it to rhe Draw biased setting and that straightened it out quite a bit. If he had gone back to the N setting he would start hitting "nanners" out to the right again!
Andy knows what hes doing. I def think if he put his gamer shaft in the g410 he would prob like the club a little more. Tough to test when its that windy.
It’s not tm Andy lol oops lol 😂
⛳🏌️♂️😎
yes mate in that order and beer!
