I had a TM Steath driver that I was fitted for. Just got fitted for the G430 Max 10K. Tighter dispersion, reduced the slices and hooks, increase in distance (20yds) and increased my confidence off the tee. For me it was worth the money.
The Max and 10k are different. They suite different type of golfers. If someone got fit into a max it doesn't mean that they will suit the 10k as it tends to spin lower (somewhere in between the Max and LST). Westy might be a 14 hcp but he swings it at 115! Get someone in who swings it slower and slices the ball, they will struggle with the 10k. For players like Westy it's a real shame he got fit into the max :(
Agree. It's not a swing anyone could rely on for any consistency. That was an incomplete or short backswing with a big lash. Lessons would produce longer term benefit and consistency.
TM Stealth Plus current driver… just been for a Max 10k fitting… Gained 27 yards carry and even gained a baby draw. I’m now a belieber in the Ping Driver hype
Great comparison video Gents, thank you. Just out of interest what moi figure does the standard G430 Max have and did the carbon crown of the 10K improve sound and feel? Thanks.
Love the vids mate. Got into em back when you were in Portugal with button and George. Getting a driver fitting soon so I’ll keep an eye out for this monster
I would love to see the numbers on screen 😂😂. Maybe do a split screen showing ball flight and numbers. The screen is probably not on yous are probably just looking at the wall 😂😂 love the videos lads great content 👌
Your 430 Max had the rear weight moved to draw/hook bias. Since you hooked many shots with 430 Max, you need to re-test with the weight in the middle, just like the 10K (non-movable weight).
Good review but don’t like the 10K look at address. I hit the G430 MAX much better and maybe I just feel more confident with the look behind the ball. 5 HANDICAP 👊 ⛳️
I bought the 10k and change my callaway xhot2, but somehow my hit always slice with 10k and i got frustated. Then i come to club fitting and the fitter reccomend me to use g430 max with ventus blue TR instead of my 10k stiff. The result is amazing.. g430 max weightened has been setting in draw make my slice reduce and keep on the fairway..bu i feel that i loss at least 10 20 yards with g430 max.. 😅 thats another problem.. I need to training more
Just ordered the Ping G430 10K Max club, BEFORE seeing this video. Just wondering why we can't see real numbers on a screen instead of two blokes allegedly looking at a screen and reading numbers to us? LEGAL? SUBTERFUGE?
Eugene my friend 😂. We have no reason to lie to you buddy, we aren’t sponsored by ping nor do we make any money from ping in any capacity. Just enjoy the video brother haha
You forgot to mention the max has adjustability in the rear weight that the 10k does not. That reason alone was why i picked it. If you want even tighter dispersion, if you tend to slice, hook etc, get the max.
Doesn’t make that much difference… Been proven in fits. It’s a left biased driver. The 10k is a unicorn head that does everything very well. Doesn’t need the adjustable back weight
The big joke is selling $ 399,g425 as same price of 430 reduction except the 10000.Ping must think we are stupid a almost 4 year old driver.Greedy Ping
I have heard the 10k max becomes an issue for people with slower swing speeds, something to do with the positioning of the weight on the back and players not turning it over quickly enough.
That would mean higher MOI irons are an issue for slower swing speeds. But the Max 10K is designed to be a neutral head, not draw-biased like the Qi10 Max. I love that because a left miss is 💀 for me. I'm planning to deloft and open the face a bit for baby fade bombs.
This is exactly my issue. I currently have the Ping 10k max, can’t turn it over enough so am blocking it big time. Thought it was the cold weather etc, but I’m in Turkey right now, hot weather & it’s the same. Big time push right that isn’t there with my Titleist TSi2.
@@kev12558 That's interesting. I have my 10K set to -1 flat and I open the face at address because it sits a bit square for me and I'm hitting straight bombs. My swing is probably 92 to 98 right now. I think a lot of it is feel and the rear CG is very different. My second outing was amazing but my third was a disaster because I kept topping shots. Was at the range yesterday and zero topping, hitting bombs again. I think 10K drivers have more potential than almost anything out there as we can see with Nelly Korda but they require adjustments and don't work for everyone. Good luck.
I am probably the most consciousness spender for my golf equipment, but I am actively stalking each of these clubs and monitoring used club sites, like 2nd Swing, pre-owned Calloway so when of these presents under retail I am pouncing.
So I am gonna have to say. Go get fit if you are considering paying more for the 10k. I went with my son to be fitted for one of these drivers. And after hearing many reviews just like this one….,I was positive we were leaving with the 10k. An hour and half later he walked out with the 430 Max and was extremely satisfied. Other drivers in contention were 10k 430, QI 10Max 10k, reg QI10, Callaway Para Smoke Max, Para Smoke triple diamond, And started with a Sim 2 Max. So we arent Ping pushers. He hits the ball around 270 yards with a slight draw. At the end of the day the 430 Max just performed better for him than the 10k or any of the others. Also must say the 430 Max is able to be adjusted more during the fitting process. While the 10k was limited in adjustment and was NO LONGER for my son. Again go for a fitting it was well worth the little bit extra.
When I got fitted I actually hit the g430 max the best and not so great with the 10K so I think it really depends but the 2 best drivers for me atleast that I had the best numbers with was the qi 10 and the g430 max
PXG are doing a challenge with the black ops if they don’t better your distance or dispersion they they will give you £100. With the gains you’ve just got with the 10k it would be good to see if you could get even more. PXG got me gains and better dispersion with more forgiveness. Would be good to see what yous can get
Ok next time I’ll be sure to get someone in their 20’s, 30’s, 40’s, 50’s, 60’s & 70’s just to be sure. And make sure they’ve all got varying ball speeds so that this test is 100% relevant to every living person on earth. What is wrong with you 😂
@@thegolfsupply Can you be sure to also include someone with short sight, bad breath, 5ft 4in, lefty and anxiety? Don't want that demographic to feel left out.
Ping are annoying. Normal Max with moveable weight, and no carbon top, but a 10k without a moveable weight, but a carbon top. They knew they wouldn't sell the normal Max if they had the weight track in the 10k. That decision was made by an accountant.
First you post a video on The Ping 10k being more expensive than the others, which it’s not, now you post this crap. You obviously have something against Ping. I have the Max 10k and it’s the best driver I’ve ever owned. Distance is equal to just about everything else, the dispersion is tighter and I’m a single digit handicap. The joke isn’t the Max 10k, it’s you and this channel.

That was my experience. I hit several shots that should have been off the planet but were edge of fairway.
Yep. It’s good
Got custom fitted for a G430 Max driver last year... why PING whyyyy???
FYI. The G430 Max also has 10k of moi
Your 430 Max had the rear weight moved to draw/hook bias. Since you hooked many shots with 430 Max, you need to re-test with the weight in the middle, just like the 10K (non-movable weight).
Honestly I think the only difference between the Max and Max 10K is the weights
Good catch I didn't even notice that
I am confused, it sounds like you said the ping g430 max 10k is a joke.
As in a joke good
I would love to see you put it up against the Pxg Black ops@@thegolfsupply
Im confused too. So is it better ot a joke?
I got the Max. Now looking at this. 😮. Out of interest what shaft the big man got in ?
Kaili White, the stiffest profile of the included in the rpice shafts.
What Nova said 👊
Good review but don’t like the 10K look at address. I hit the G430 MAX much better and maybe I just feel more confident with the look behind the ball. 5 HANDICAP 👊 ⛳️
Same here off 5 like yourself and the max sits better for me and I hit this much more consistently
Great video lads, I'm a belieber now too.
😅😅😅
The max is selling 40% Less than the 10 k. The question is it worth that difference, $600; vs $400.
wish i could go back to my 430 max my 10k is just no where near as forgiving deffinately longer
You found OG max to be more forgiving??
It's a confusing video, so is the 10K the winner here or is going back to the MAX a better choice?
I bought the 10k and change my callaway xhot2, but somehow my hit always slice with 10k and i got frustated.
Then i come to club fitting and the fitter reccomend me to use g430 max with ventus blue TR instead of my 10k stiff.

I appreciate the +14 hitter. 👏🏿👏🏿
Man of the people
Real question is I play off 28 so course 34 - Is it worth £600 for a 10k driver over my Ping G425 Max driver with a graphite shaft ???
It is very forgiving. Whether it’s worth £600 is your call bro
Had the exact opposite experience. I got a good 10 Yards more with the Max and better dispersion. Happy to save the $50 for better performance.
Same here got my max last month and I hit this much more consistent than the 10k
You forgot to mention the max has adjustability in the rear weight that the 10k does not. That reason alone was why i picked it. If you want even tighter dispersion, if you tend to slice, hook etc, get the max.

I dont understand. The 10K is a joke as in bad? Im getting mixed feelings here. I just bought a Max but will take it back if the 10k is way better.
I believe he meant it’s a joke how good it is.
Totally meant as a joke.. I bought the 10K a few weeks ago .. Not' a joke .. love it'

Good luck getting it. 9deg heads not due until June 😥😥
Do you mean in the UK? I live in canada, was fit earlier this year and I have the max 10k in a 9 degree head in my golf bag
10.5 for me boss 😂
Bro, June is in 2 months, you acting like it's years lol
So does this mean Westy will be hitting driver more often. If he gets a 10k
He already does now!
Good video thanks guys
Our pleasure!
Isnt his driver a 9 Degree head and the 10K is 10.5?
Nah we changed the heads after the intro so both 10.5
So he normally games a 9 degree max, but tested a 10.5 max and 10k
Brilliant as always. Should try a 20 handicapper see if it's any good then lol
Haha nah enough testing on this has been done now lol
I play off 20 and love my ping g425! So forgiving, so can only imagine how good the new g430 max is
How are you getting 170 ball speeds as a 14 hdcp? Your iron play must be abysmal
He’s 6,5 😂
This video is bogus... try again with the sliding weight in the middle with the MAX instead of DRAW bias and your shots will go straighter MATE.
Maybe they need to turn on the heating. A beenie indoors 😂
You know the vibe
When I got fitted I actually hit the g430 max the best and not so great with the 10K so I think it really depends but the 2 best drivers for me atleast that I had the best numbers with was the qi 10 and the g430 max
