Tour Driver

The G410 LST is Ping's low-spin driver from the 2019 lineup, and it plays exactly like the name suggests. At 440cc, the head is smaller than the 455cc G410 Plus, which shrinks the footprint at address and lowers the center of gravity enough to knock spin down for players who need it. If your driver launches high and spins hard, this is the club in the family built to fix that.

Ping went with a fixed tungsten back weight here instead of the sliding weight track you get on the Plus and SFT models. That trade is deliberate. The LST is for golfers who already know their shot shape and want a lower, more penetrating flight, not someone chasing a draw bias or fade correction. Spin numbers drop, ball speed holds up thanks to the forged T9S+ face, and the flight comes off flatter.

You still get the adjustable hosel with eight settings, so loft and lie can shift up to 1.5 degrees in either direction. Combine that with the low-spin head and you have a driver that rewards a good swing and punishes a lazy one. This is a Tour-category club, and it wants Tour-category speed to work the way it should.

• Faster swingers who launch it high and spin it too much off the tee
• Better players who want a compact 440cc shape and don't need a draw or fade bias baked in
• Golfers chasing a flatter, more penetrating ball flight and lower peak height
• Players comfortable trading a bit of forgiveness for lower spin and a smaller footprint

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between the G410 LST and the G410 Plus?

The LST is 440cc with a fixed tungsten back weight tuned for low spin, while the Plus is 455cc and has a sliding weight track that lets you shift the CG for a draw or fade bias. Pick the LST if your main problem is too much spin. Pick the Plus if you want forgiveness and shot-shape adjustability.

Is the G410 LST adjustable?

Yes. It uses Ping's eight-position hosel, so you can adjust loft and lie up to 1.5 degrees higher or lower. The back weight is fixed, though, so unlike the Plus and SFT you can't move mass around to change your shot shape.

How much spin does the LST actually take off?

Ping positioned this as their lowest-spinning G410 driver, and most fittings show it running a few hundred RPM lower than the Plus for the same swing. The exact number depends on your speed and strike, but the smaller head and low, back CG are built to bring spin down for players who launch it high.

Should a mid-handicapper play the G410 LST?

Usually not the best fit. The 440cc head and low-spin design reward faster, more consistent swings, and it gives up some forgiveness compared to the G410 Plus. If you have real speed and fight high spin, it can work. If you need help finding the center of the face, the Plus is the safer choice.

What loft options does the G410 LST come in?

It's offered in 9 and 10.5 degrees, and the adjustable hosel lets you move each of those up or down 1.5 degrees. That covers a fairly wide loft range, so most players can find a launch window that suits the low-spin flight.
