Ping G425 SFT 一号木

The G425 SFT is Ping's answer to the slice, and it doesn't try to hide that. SFT stands for Straight Flight Technology, which is Ping's polite way of saying this driver fights a left-to-right ball flight and pulls your shots back toward the fairway. If you lose tee shots to the right, this is the G425 built for you.

Inside the 460cc head sits a fixed tungsten weight parked in the heel. That weight placement is the whole trick. It shifts the center of gravity toward the heel, which helps the face square up through impact and adds roughly 10 yards of draw compared to the standard G425 Max. You don't set anything or move anything to get that bias. It's baked in.

What you can adjust is the hosel. Ping's Trajectory Tuning 2.0 sleeve gives you eight loft and lie settings, so you can add or subtract loft and flatten the lie to lean into the draw even harder. The rest of the G425 story carries over here too: high MOI for forgiveness on off-center hits, the Dragonfly crown to save weight up top, and turbulators on the crown that most golfers either love or ignore.

• You slice the driver and want the club to help correct it instead of fighting your swing.
• A moderate swing speed player who needs help squaring the face at impact.
• Anyone who wants forgiveness and a draw bias without learning how to move weights around.
• Golfers moving away from a driver that keeps leaking tee shots to the right of the fairway.

常见问题

What does SFT mean on the Ping G425?

SFT stands for Straight Flight Technology. It's Ping's draw-biased model, built with a fixed heel weight that helps the face square up and pulls shots back to the left, which fights a slice.

Is the G425 SFT weight adjustable?

No. The 26-gram tungsten weight is fixed in the heel and can't be moved. If you want a movable back weight, you want the G425 Max. What is adjustable on the SFT is the hosel, which offers eight loft and lie settings.

How much draw does the G425 SFT produce?

Ping quotes about 10 yards of extra draw compared to the standard G425 Max. The heel-weighted center of gravity does the work, and you can flatten the lie through the hosel to add even more right-to-left shape.

Is the G425 SFT good for high handicappers?

Yes. It's a Max game improvement driver with a 460cc head, high MOI, and forgiveness on mishits. The built-in draw bias makes it especially friendly for higher handicappers who tend to slice.

Should I choose the G425 SFT or the G425 Max?

Pick the SFT if you slice and want automatic correction with no setup. Pick the Max if your ball flight is fairly neutral and you'd rather tune the shot shape yourself with the movable back weight.
