PING fairway
The PING G430 SFT fairway is a fairway in 3 options from 16°–22°, RH and LH.
Discontinued. Kept here because the published specs still matter to anyone playing one or buying used.

Where this club lands
The field is every fairway in the database that publishes both of the chart's figures — every brand, not just PING.
The head half
Head option
Across every option: this club's loft from the 36th to the 88th percentile, and length from the 35th to the 83rd percentile.
Head: Loft against Length
The cloud is every fairway head option on record that publishes both loft and length — 1,546 of them, binned by density.
Specifications by option
What this record publishes. Across 3 options: loft, lie, length, swingweight and head weight on every one.
3 rows, unsorted.
| 16 | 3-wood | RH / LH | 56.5 | 43 | D0 | 216 | 188 |
| 19 | 5-wood | RH / LH | 57 | 42.5 | D0 | 220 | 178 |
| 22 | 7-wood | RH / LH | 57.5 | 42 | D0 | 225 | 166 |
Head geometry doesn't change with the shaft, so it's stated once. A blank cell means PING did not publish that figure — we don't estimate.
Measured against comparable clubs
Where this club's published fitting specs sit among comparable clubs — never how good it is.

player level — derived
This fairway reads as built for a high-handicap player — our deterministic reading of manufacturer designation "sft" (forgiveness / draw / lightweight line). A design classification, not a rule about who may play it. How the bands are read →

What's on this page
In progress2 of 3 built
2 of 3 parts of this club page are built, and we're filling in the rest.
- PING's own specs, partly built.Taken from PING's product page. We haven't found their full spec sheet for this club yet, so some figures they publish may be missing.
- Published options, built.3 configurations, carrying every one of the 5 specs a fairway can publish.
- Stock shaft, built.PING names no stock shaft for this club on the sources we hold, so there's nothing to link.
The site is in beta and the database is still being built, so expect gaps. Know something we don't? Help us fill it in — a link to where it's published is worth more than anything else you could send.
