In our forums, our members have been discussing forgiveness levels of both Ping’s G425 Max and G410 Plus drivers. WRXer ‘Golfer55082’ kicks off the thread, saying

“Anyone who has experience with both can comment if G425 max is more forgiving? On paper, G425 has higher MOI than G410+ in all three positions (neutral, draw and fade).

Have you seen this MOI difference help with more speed retention and offline mitigation for bad shots?”

And our members have been sharing their thoughts on the matter in our forums.

Here are a few posts from the thread, but make sure to check out the entire discussion and have your say at the link below.

sshadow2: “Yes. As a long time user of the 410+, though distance can be similar, the 425 Max is better in almost every way. I switched as fast as I could.”
skraly: “For me, the G425 is more forgiving.”
kcstock: “Recently went from 410lst to 425max. In my one round with the 425, I can report that I found it more forgiving. It’s a small sample size, but I found the distance dispersion to be better. I’m sure I didn’t hit the middle in every shot but didn’t feel as punished. Distance off the tee seemed pretty consistent through the round. Hope this helps.”
