Ping has raised the bar in the game-improvement category with the G440 irons following the preceding G430s which very well received making them a tough act to follow. The face of the new model has been made thinner and shallower with a shorter blade length and less beef in the top line so they look more like a player’s iron but still respond like a game-improvement iron.

The 4- through 6-irons have an added 1/8” compared to the G430s which marginally improves clubhead speed and helps to ensure the correct distance gapping between clubs.

John Solheim, Ping CEO & President said of the new irons, “The G440 iron offers golfers everything they need to elevate their iron play. It looks amazing and delivers the distance they want with the control they need to hit shots closer to the hole. In this category, we continue to emphasize the importance of consistency and stopping power when determining the iron that best fits a golfer. We know they want distance, but distance without control doesn’t lead to lower scores. Through multiple advancements, the G440 represents the most versatile iron in our line and will fit the games of a lot of golfers.”
