I would love to see how the team of varying handicaps and swings speeds hit these drivers and the outcome!
Data and dispersion head to head would be great to see.
Exactly!!!
I couldn’t agree more… I have started a channel that will do this exact thing high handicap golfers trying out todays newest and hottest equipment just to see how good it is for average joes .
@Mid_Golfer_Jeff yup, many of us can't relate to 400+ yard drives I see on some channels
Pete your ai smoke video and this one have been absolutely brilliant ! The best you’ve done. The callaway one in particular. Clear team effort with incredible graphics, great delivery and the style has changed and you’ve nailed it in my opinion. Keep up the fantastic work guys!
Well done!! I watched entire vid 🙌🏻
Now we are going to need to see a 430 10k vs G400 Max head to head
As a gamer of the G400 Max, this video was a bit of a punch to the gut to know that the driver I routinely hit into the trees is already in this 10k MOI category. Think I'll go cry a bit now...
I’m still playing G400 Max + reg Ping reduced shaft by 1/2 inch and it’s still my favorite…no new data to switch for a new driver + nearly 900$ CDA kept in my pockets.
I'm still using my G400 max driver and that's after trying the 430.
No one wants to see a 7 year old driver compared to new ones.
@@MXJEFF94 I bet @starf07 does.
Do a driver review for us older slower swing speed players (90-95mph)! Someone that truly hits it on the toe and heel.
Now that would be a driver comparison review that I would really like to see!
100% agree - whilst someone of Pete's capability is excellent to see and understand subtle differences, would love to also see one of the guys (mid to higher handicapper) giving some feedback
No Pete, you are absolutely correct about ping drivers being heavy. Put it on a scale vs Taylormade Qi10 and you’ll probably see a 10 gram delta. That’s why a lot of their stock shafts come counterbalanced
I am a ping guy; probably always will be. Just upgraded to g430 D and woods, i230s last year. I doubt I’ll pull the trigger on a new driver. Great testing Pete; you crushed that 10k!
Qi in chinese is pronounced 'Chee'. 10 is 'Ten' .. so this driver is.. Cheatin?
That is the name 😂
Hahahaha
10 of 10 my friend
TM been Qi10 their customers for years
Lol I thought the same thing
Would love to see you compare the G400 Max versus the G430 Max 10K!!!
Would love to see a video from you and your talented design team on explaining all the different golf games that can be played out on the course!
Very interesting! Liked that you got the team to test the Taylor made. Would be interesting though to see the resultat the team got with both drivers? Did a more average golfer also gain massiv with the ping?
I’ve got to say the production quality of this video was right up there with some of the best content on RUclips. Keep it up Pete and team. For me this is the most under appreciated golf RUclips channel at the moment. Superb
Yeah love the moi graphics 😅
@@pbannist hahahaha
this could be the best golf vid I've looked at on you tube. Your usual approachable professional presentation with some lovely underlying humour with great production values. Keep it up Peter - very good!!
Interesting info on the g400 Max. Just gamed this for 2024 at 9deg and x stiff . Never had a ball flight and consistently fly - it’s a monster for £190 , very happy 😅
What an interesting head to head!!! Thanks for doing that Pete! I can't believe how much further the Ping goes as that's not normal with a ping driver from what I have seen in the past.
Pete has been the ABSOLUTE BEST reviewer - fantastic production and details!!! Keep it up!
Wow, thanks!
I love this “top gear” feeling intro with dramatic music. Keep it up.
Thanks, will do!
I am part of the 10k club. You should be able to stay out of the hills and heather on the links courses now with that ping.
Damn those turbulators are hideous. Cmon Ping offer a non-turbulator model.
Great cinema work , I liked the picture book analogy. You guys are making a boring review witty and interesting. Way better than other channels
Great review. I won't be rushing out to replace my beautiful TSR3 any time soon though - I only bought it in September!
Sorry to be pedantic, but the MOI units here are g.cm2, i.e. grams x square centimetre, NOT grams per centimetre squared. As you say, the higher the MOI, the more resistant the clubhead is to twisting, all other things being equal, e.g. location of the C of G.
I went for a driver fitting yesterday, and the Qi10Max worked well for me. I struggle with low spin, low launch and occasional snap hook on driver, and my usual driver clubhead speed is around 95mph. The Qi10Max worked best for me at 12 degree head at standard loft, and a stiff 50g shaft. Consistent shots at 235 yds carry, 255 yds total at a Trackman. I would be very happy with these numbers on the course. The spin average was at 2250. I did not have time to test delofting the club to 11.25 degree, it could have worked even better. I tried the ping, Cobra darkspeed, as options Multiple stiff and regular shaft options. The others did not work as well and as consistently.
Which 50g shaft was that then? Thx.
I have a G400 max !!!!!! In full transparency when my game needs help I play the K15 which is my all time favorite. Thanks Pete !!! I'm a Ping driver guy !!!!!
Wow. It looks like PING once again managed to create the best forgiving driver.
Glad you made the comment about the Ping feeling heavy. My G425 feels like a sledgehammer compared to swinging my friends' TaylorMade Stealth & Sim
I changed to a lighter back weight on my G430 .. totally transformed the driver and swinging it faster 👍
These never ending equipment release videos were interesting for the first year I started golf. I’m now in the camp of being extremely sick of them. Skip a 10 second ad, to watch a 9 minute ad. 😂
I just wanna say that I'm 20 seconds into the video and these drums are WORKING for me, lol.
Great review loved seeing these two head to head! Ping should scrap the rest of the line up and just do that 10k one that seems to be the best of both worlds, drop the price a bit and they would clean up
I just bought the Qi10 max and it’s a beast. Ultra forgiving and long. Nicest driver I’ve hit. Tested the 430 max as well. Also a great feeling driver. It was a tough choice between the two but the Taylormade won out on feel alone. It’s so smooth
Love the new videos! Look so good!! I was saying to my mate that it reminded me of the 400 max (which I have and love)
Best review I've seen probably ever?! Magnificent mate. Loved it
I replaced rhe 2 gram weight in the back of my Stealth driver with a 14 gram weight. Solved the twist on off center strikes. Cost $15.
Pete is definitely the GOAT whenever it comes to reviews!🔥
I appreciate that!
@@peterfinchgolf Absolutely brother!👊
I love all the Ping G400 through the G430. I’ve used all of them. I’m now using the G430 and it’s the best club I’ve hit. My irons are the Titleist T200. So I’m just saying I’m not just one clubs brand. I use what ever works best for me.
Good video team! Loved the graphics with the comparison at the end.
Best Reviewer of golf clubs on RUclips. Period! Good luck getting to 600k subscribers.
That Ping must be going in the bag....we'd love to see some super low rounds and a great run on QFTO....can't say I'd be bothered what club you're swinging just as long as you kill it :)
Bought my Qi10 Max today, absolutely cannot wait to use it!
These new styles of reviews are really cool
Would be cool to see you fit your team into the new line up of drivers
Great review. Very informative - love the stats presentation
Amazing video!! Best coverage on Qi10 Max and G430 Max 10k!!
I’m part of the 10k club as per instagram comment happy to give my forwarding address for the QI10 max can only dream of owning one keep up the good work love the videos
You’re a stud muffin for putting these head to head on opening day! Stud muffin!!!
Had to double check what video I clicked on for a second. That intro gave me Top Gear Jeremy Clarkson vibes haha
So, love the videos..intro is really good..was watching out after hearing a recent podcast. Not loving the abrupt end to the videos though. A little outro would be nice!
There's no weeping in golf, Peter.😂
Another thing to consider I saw the Taylor Made is 100 less in price. That could sway people too. Both of these drivers seemed to have nailed it this year though. Great review as always Pete!
issue with TaylorMade is you know they'll be bringing out an 'improved' version next year.....so is it worth waiting..?
@@so-xm3gc very true. Seems like they always get it right on the second go round.
Upping your game for 2024 - strong start mate! Love how you've taken a different approach to Rick and others. Keep it up annd subscribers will flock to your channel
Wow - fantastic review as ever. I really want the 430 10k, just that pesky £600 price tag…
Can you do g400 v g430 review?
The whole 10k thing is more of a gimmick though in the taylormade testing the 10k number is coming from the twisting that the driver is doing from up and down on bottom and top strikes on the face, not from left to right on heel and toe shots where it really matters.
Thank you for the review. Now it is time to compare Ping MAX 10K vs G430 Max.
That Ping drive DEF looks good based on performance, curious to take a few swings with it
Thanks for the comparison great overview
@peter Would you go with the g430 max or the new g430 10k and why?
Very interesting video. Love these driver reviews, better get saving!!
Great review. I assume not a lot of space in the studio, but personally I'd add some diffusion to your lighting, or bounce it off the wall, as it's a bit harsh with distracting shadows at times...though obviously personal opinion! Love the channel.
Ah!! im still rocking a G400 Max, thanks for renewing my interest in my own club ☺
Pete’s taken some inspiration from top gear on these new intros! Clarkson esque!
Interesting. I have a Ping G400 Max. When I got fitted at Cool Clubs 18 months ago, they reshafted it, but thought it would be better for me to use that head versus buying an all-new club.
I can still hook and slice it. Maybe I need to wait for 20,000 MOI.
I’m digging the Ferris Bueller scene 😂
Best Review Ever !!!; concise, informative, compelling and the background video welcoming the Qi10 Max was uplifting. Unfortunately for Taylormade, The Ping Engineers, like a True Elephant, stomped them and left them red faced, 20 yards behind.
Uplifting lol its a golf club
@@lazerpug4416 Is English still taught in "lol" schools?
@jameslaughter5183 Sensible comments are obviously not
I'm a Ping guy but put great stock in your reviews. Thanks Pete
I'm part of the 10K club
Just a quick glance at the numbers between your Callaway review and this review, Ping seems to match the numbers of the new Callaway and is really close to the Callaway Paradym, so for last years money and as much as makes no difference in performance, go for last years Paradym kind of seems to be the result. Possibly a little more dispersion on the old one but my swing creates far more dispersion than the club cannot deal with it anyway. There is so much hype around the Ping but your own numbers seem to somewhat quell that excitement. The real test should be in the hands of the buyers of these clubs, the weekend (or for the retired - midweek) golfers to see what the advantages would be. The percentage improvements would to this untrained eye seem negligible. No doubt there will be plenty purchased with the amount of hype, especially in the RUclips community. I must add, very entertaining videos Peter, great work by you and the team. Who needs TV. Maybe saving on a TV licence will let me afford a new driver every year.
Love the comparison. Best review I've seen.
The G430 Max 10k sits in-between the G460 Max and the LST in the Ping line-up. If i didn't recently (Sept. 2023) get custom fit for TSR3 i would def. give the G430 Max 10k and the AI Smoke a shot.
Ping. Always Ping. That’s all.
Finally! It's about time a golf brand made a driver that's more forgiving and easier to hit
There will be a bigger and bigger push towards this moving forward
It's about time a manufacturer brought out a players forgiving iron with blade like offset, lofts and profile :)
I play TM clubs, Driver and irons well mainly the Lob Wedge is a Mack Daddy 4. But to be honest i prefer the Ping in your test. The best of both worlds springs to mind. Forgiveness without high rpm, which in the Uk this time of year would see a lot of ballooning flights.
Hi Peter , the videos are great and keep up the good work. I have two questions for you,
1. What app are you using on you phone for shot tracing? I have been trying to get a good one for my iPhone 14 Pro.
2. I think you should try the new Seed golf balls, I live in the west of Ireland with the best links golf. You really should come here to play. And use Seed balls more.
The 4:55 color transaction was sleek! Nice
I love the intro on this... HAHAHA
Peter delivering what we are most curious about! Awesome comparison!
Great review Peter. You and your team really do a great job in presentation. So the Ping. Thought you also like the AI smoke. Will wait for next year and see if price comes down.
Great video mate, I enjoyed that
I need G430 Max vs 10K 🤞🏻
great review Peter I think this years Driver lineup is gonna very competitive across the board will be tough to choose which brand to go with just wish the prices were not so outlandish 800-900 canadian for a driver is getting pretty steep cheers all from Vulcan Canada
Hole No. 8 at Emirates Golf Club Dubai shown on the Simulator I believe? I’ve ended up in the Desert on the right more than a few times for real on that hole 😂😂
Excellent video production!
I got curious and went back to your old driver videos. You were hitting pretty much all of the old drivers further than these and the Qi10. the 10 was actually much shorter than any of the other drivers from 2 years ago. You hit the Mizuno STG 333 yards.
Firmly believe that your club review videos are the best on RUclips 👌👏👏
Ping drivers are almost always 10G+ heavier than other manufacturers ( as a standard model, no extra back weight most are 195+/- and ping 205+ ) ...that helps to launch and MOI
Peter...this is a direct lift from ping website about the g425 ...
the MAX, total MOI pushes a record 10,000, largely due to a 26-gram tungsten movable weight that shifts the CG lower and farther back and can be secured in the Neutral, Draw or Fade setting.
👀👀👀🤷🤷🤷
Nice review and really enjoyed the video. I think I will buy the Ping driver. I use their irons and their old driver, so I think I will stick to Ping. 👍
Ping driver heads are heavier, that is one of the things I like about them. Ping is often slightly above 200 grams, where the other manufacturers are generally 5 grams or more under that mark.
Its interesting to see the difference in people and testing. Rick's tests showed the calaway to be miles better, pete co.paring against ping. Be interesting to see what's the most forgiving out of all.
Goes to show how much is personal preference and to test yourself.
Damn I currently have the g430 max and it’s been good for fairways but it doesn’t excite me like the stealth did but staying in play was more important. I wonder if the Qi10 will be that sweet spot for me of fun but forgiving. Still waiting on that cobra dark speed in a couple days
Great stuff Pete, I'm.not usually a tm fan but that blue is a beaut 👌
Peter, great video but one thing i will ask, could you do a review with a standard shaft and grip? Because looks like you have custom shaft and bigger grip on these clubs so its not a true review for us normal players. I may be completely wrong as what your using are normal custom store shafts/grips but they look custom. Thanks.
When you said "don';t CLICK OFF", I CLICKED OFF.🤣
That ping driver looks amazing!
Came for the driver comparison, stayed for Pete's handwriting 😂
It's funny because my ping g425 that's now a few years old, also claimed 10,000 MOI. Leads me to believe that the g430 sacrificed MOI in favor of a better sound, and maybe this g430 10k is then taking that better sound and bringing it back up to 10,000 MOI. Which, if it actually sounds better than the g425, makes it their best driver. I personally am not offended by the sound and love the playability of my g425.
Good review, Pete. Thing is though, the Max version isn't aimed at players like you! Hopefully, you'll review the standard and LS versions this week too?
6/7 years later ..You’d still have to fight me to get my Callaway GBB Epic sub zero out of my bag 🤷♂️.. 270-80 carry … hits fairways , I can work it right to left or left to right really well and mostly I love how it looks …..it would take something crazy to get me to buy a new driver
Will we see you test/review the PXG 0311 Black Ops? I remember a short while where you had a PXG Gen5 in the bag. Hearing great things about the Black Ops
Very interesting stuff Pete. I am most likely buying a new driver this year and even before this video Ping has been high on my list. I do like the look of the new taylormade and when I go for a fitting a probably sneak in a hit or two with it as well.
Did you guys do those glowing product shots? TM owes you boys money.
Hit them both back to back. For me they both spun on average at 2600 to 2700. Mishits around 3100. Which is great for me. My ss is about 103ish.
