Tour Driver

The G30 LS Tec is the driver Ping built for players who already generate speed and were losing distance to too much spin. LS stands for Low Spin, and the 440cc head is the tell. It sits smaller and more compact at address than the standard 460cc G30, and it launches the ball on a flatter, more penetrating flight. If your standard G30 balloons in a headwind, this is the fix.

Ping kept the parts of the G30 that made it a hit and just moved the weighting. You still get the Turbulators along the crown, those small ridges up front that cut drag through the swing to help clubhead speed. You still get the Dragonfly crown, a super thin section of the top that frees up weight to put where it matters. On the LS Tec, that weight sits lower and slightly more forward than the standard model, which is what pulls spin down by roughly 300 to 400 rpm for most players.

This is not a driver for everyone, and Ping never pretended it was. It rewards a center strike and a swing that comes in with enough speed to carry a lower-spin ball. Get both, and you pick up real yardage off the tee.

• Faster swingers, generally 105 mph and up, who spin the ball too much with a standard driver
• Better ball strikers who catch the center consistently and want a flatter, more workable flight
• Anyone whose current driver climbs too high and gets knocked down in the wind
• Players who liked the G30 feel and sound but needed the ball to come down sooner and roll out more

Câu hỏi thường gặp

What is the difference between the G30 LS Tec and the standard G30 driver?

The LS Tec has a smaller 440cc head versus the standard G30's 460cc, and the weighting sits lower and more forward. That drops spin by around 300 to 400 rpm and produces a flatter flight. The standard G30 is more forgiving and launches higher, which suits most golfers. The LS Tec is aimed at faster, more consistent swingers who fight excess spin.

Who should play the G30 LS Tec instead of the regular G30?

Reach for the LS Tec if you swing around 105 mph or faster and your drives balloon or spin too much to carry their potential distance. It rewards center strikes. If you miss around the face often or want maximum forgiveness, the standard G30 is the better pick.

Is the G30 LS Tec adjustable?

Yes. It uses Ping's Trajectory Tuning 2.0 hosel with five settings that let you adjust loft up or down by one degree from the stated number. You can fine-tune launch, but the head stays a low-spin design regardless of the setting.

Does the smaller 440cc head make the G30 LS Tec harder to hit?

It is less forgiving than the 460cc G30 on off-center strikes, yes. The smaller footprint also looks more compact at address, which some players prefer and others find intimidating. If you strike it cleanly and want a piercing flight, the tradeoff is worth it. If not, size up to the standard model.

What kind of feel and sound does the G30 LS Tec have?

It carries the same solid, muted crack the G30 line is known for, a step quieter and more contained than the louder G25 before it. The Turbulators on the crown are visible at address and double as an alignment aid, so the face is easy to square up at setup.
