About the Ping G440 LST Fairway Wood
The Ping G440 LST Fairway Wood is a tour-inspired, low-spin fairway wood designed for golfers with faster swing speeds who want to maximize distance through reduced spin and a penetrating ball flight. The LST (Low Spin Technology) designation signals that this is the most performance-oriented fairway wood in Ping's G440 lineup, built to deliver the launch and spin characteristics that better players need to get the most out of their fairway woods both off the tee and from the deck.
The G440 LST features a multi-material construction that combines an HST (High-Strength Titanium) face with a Ti 8-1-1 titanium body, an 85-gram tungsten sole plate, and Ping's Carbonfly Wrap crown. This combination positions mass low and deep in the clubhead to promote high launch with low spin, while the thinner, speed-optimized face maintains ball speed across a wider area of the hitting surface. A taller face profile compared to previous generations adds visual confidence, particularly when teeing the club up on par fives.
Adjustability comes through Ping's Trajectory Tuning hosel, which provides plus or minus 1.5 degrees of loft adjustment and up to 3 degrees of lie angle flattening across eight positions. A three-position adjustable back weight allows golfers to shift the horizontal CG location for additional shot-shape tuning. The improved acoustics produce a solid, muted tick at impact that represents a meaningful upgrade over previous Ping fairway woods.
