The Ping G425 LST is a fairway wood built around a Facewrap design. A thin, high-strength maraging steel face extends into the crown and sole. This allows more flexing at impact for faster ball speeds, which produce more distance and high-launching shots.
The face has a complex curvature that changes the roll profile and is meant to make spin more consistent. Low on the face, the loft decreases by approximately 2.5º to normalize spin and increase ball speed. This area is the most common miss-hit location for fairway woods. Testing with both players and a PING Man robot showed improved distance from this Spinsistency feature, especially low on the face.
