GOLF

Modern aerospace manufacturing techniques, data analysis and clubfitting tools have allowed equipment manufacturers to push the boundaries of design in every category of club. These advancements help golfers of all skill levels hit longer, higher and straighter more often. As a result, they’re able to enjoy the game to a greater degree.

Whether it’s through the use of rapid prototyping and 3D printing or a better understanding of how to help golfers save shots by using A.I. to refine face geometry, ever-evolving tech in club design continues to provide golfers an edge on every shot. These clubs are best in class.

PING G430 MAX 10K

PING G430 Max 10K Custom Driver

$599.99
The G430 MAX 10K is PING’s straightest and highest MOI driver to date, eclipsing the 10,000 g-cm2 combined moment of inertia threshold first surpassed by the G400 MAX five years earlier. FIXED BACK WEIGHT The fixed back weight allows for the record-setting MOI as it drives mass down and back to increase forgiveness and optimize the center of gravity position. LARGER HEAD PROFILE PING’s biggest head profile to date maximizes the USGA-allowable heel-toe and front-back dimensions while staying within the 460cc volume limit. This eye-pleasing shape helps square the golfer to the target and inspires the confidence to hit longer, straighter tee shots.

As the name suggests, the Ping G430 Max 10k pushes the limits of club head MOI (a measurement of forgiveness) to a combined 10,000. For golfers, this means more consistent distance and control on shots missed around the face.

CLEVELAND HY-WOOD

Cleveland Launcher Halo XL Custom Hy-Wood

$209.99
Want Hybrid control and Fairway Wood distance? Try a Hy-Wood. It’s the best elements of a Hybrid design combined with the best aspects of a Fairway Wood. So you can ditch those duff-prone Fairway Woods while still maintaining proper gapping at the top of your bag. HY-WOOD CONSTRUCTION A totally unique clubhead design blending the control of a Hybrid with the distance of a Fairway Wood, its head size and shape, along with its shaft length, fall directly between Fairway Woods and Hybrids. Plus, its lightweight Fairway Wood shaft provides an easy swing with maximum distance. MAINFRAME XL FACE MainFrame XL Face Technology uses a variable thickness pattern that maximizes flex at impact to boost distance. It also repositions weight low and deep in the clubhead for added forgiveness and consistency.

With the Hy-wood, Cleveland designers have created a best-of-both-worlds option for golfers in need of a club to fit between their fairway woods and hybrids. By combining a hybrid length shaft with a slightly larger FW-style head (plus sole rails for better turf interaction) golfers get the height and distance of a fairway wood in a club that’s much easier to hit.

COBRA LIMITED

Cobra LIMIT3D Custom Irons

$428.57
The LIMIT3D irons utilize 3D printing technology to push beyond the capabilities of traditional casting and forging to develop a compact player’s blade profile that has a soft forged feel and the forgiveness of an oversized, game-improvement iron.   The World’s First 3D Printed Iron Using nTop’s advanced topology optimization software, COBRA took a muscle-back blade shape and added an internal lattice structure that allowed us to reposition 33% of the total clubhead weight. Redistributing this saved weight allowed us to create a smaller profile iron with higher MOI (more forgiveness) and a lower CG (higher Launch) to make this the most forgiving blade you will ever hit.  Fine-Tuned Feel The 3D-printed internal lattice allows us to fine-tune the clubhead’s frequency at impact to maintain a forged feel and appealing sound.
View Product

As the first consumer 3D-printed irons on the market, the Cobra Limited represents a seismic shift in iron design. The additive manufacturing process allows engineers to build a new lightweight internal structure that not only saves mass but also creates a reinforcement framework that can be tuned to feel like a blade but perform like a game improvement club.
