Ping G440 K HL Golf Driver
The PING G440 K HL Driver is built for golfers who want the confidence of extreme forgiveness, paired with a lighter, easier-to-swing build. Designed to help generate more clubhead speed and a higher, more playable flight, the K HL model delivers the stability of the G440 K family while supporting golfers who benefit from an assisted launch and effortless carry distance.
The heart of the G440 K HL is its 28-gram adjustable back weight, allowing golfers to fine-tune their ball flight using Neutral, Draw, or Fade settings. This gives you the ability to shape your preferred shot while maintaining the stable, high-MOI characteristics that help keep drives straighter when contact isn't perfect.
In simple terms, it's designed to keep ball speed up across the face and make the driver easier to play consistently - ideal when you want forgiveness without losing adjustability.
Positioning mass low and back is key to the G440 K HL's performance. The heavier rear weighting pushes the centre of gravity lower and deeper, which helps the driver launch higher and stay stable through impact.
Combined with the T9S+ face, this CG placement supports faster ball speeds and improved consistency, especially on strikes that miss the centre of the face.
To create a forgiving driver without making the head feel heavy, PING uses smart weight redistribution. Advanced materials remove grams from key sections, then reposition that mass around the perimeter to increase stability and improve overall control.
Weight is saved from multiple areas, including:
That freed-up weight is then placed around the perimeter of the head - including the back weight - to increase MOI and support a lower, deeper CG. The Free-Hosel design also encourages added face flex in the heel area to help retain ball speed when impact drifts towards that side.
The G440 K HL doesn't just focus on speed and forgiveness - it's also engineered to sound and feel more solid at impact. A composite crown bridge and integrated acoustic sole ribs help manage vibration through the strike.
This produces a more muted, powerful sound and a confident impact sensation, giving clear feedback without harshness.
The G440 K HL features a cast Ti 811 body and PING's T9S+ face, designed to maintain ball speed across a larger area of the face. The larger front-to-back shaping helps the driver sit confidently behind the ball while supporting stability during the swing.
