$329
The Ping G430 SFT (Straight Flight Technology) fairway wood is purpose-built to help players who struggle with a slice find a straighter or draw-biased ball flight. Heel-side weighting promotes face closure through impact for consistent left-to-right correction. It retains the G430 platform's forgiveness and easy launch characteristics.
