CLEAR WINNER! – Titleist GT2 vs Ping G430 Max 10K! Today we look for the most forgiving driver of 2024, we have seen some amazing driver launches this year including the TaylorMade Qi10 driver, Ping G430 Max 10k, Titleist GT2 driver, PXG Black Ops driver, Callaway Paradym AI Smoke and lots more. What is the best mid handicap driver? the best high handicap driver? what is the best forgiving driver of 2024? I always think that you should get fitted for a new driver if your going o spend the money on them… but what is the best? lets find out
I hit the ping great but… I hit the titleist further consistently.
There’s a reason I don’t subscribe to this channel.
No consideration for shaft, lie, loft. Useless.
Ping makes good products, but I purchased the GT2. Titleist allows veterans discounts. Ping will not allow their dealers to offer one.

I would really like to see a head to head test between a 2019 driver, eg the Cobra F9, and a 2024 driver, eg a Ping g430 10k.
Has technology improved that much in 5 years?
Should I change?
Thanks.
Just ordered my GT2, so far on the course longer and more forgiving than other drivers I’ve tried and I’m a 19 hcp, hopefully for not much longer
Is it me or is this guy a titelist glazer
I like that you made a call. Not any of this "if you prefer a bigger head for confidence, go Ping" rubbish. Ping is a great driver but I'm team Titleist. There's something about the timeless and beautiful head design that inspires confidence at address. Even if the Ping was longer by 5 years, I'd still stay with Titleist, but that's a personal thing…
When you guys test clubs that’s great, however have a 12 or 15 handicapper doing these tests that’s what helps most people who watch these videos!
Ping 10K came out quite low to my eye. It's a low spin beast. If GT2 and Ping 10K are close on indoors numbers, Ping 10K is clear winner in the long term through poor swings and poor weather.
Poor video have to say unfortunately – not enough info on data / numbers comparison and then you've said you prefer the feel of both – doesn't make sense when I clicked as you put 'CLEAR WINNER!' ….
Surely that’s why you go to a fitting? I went in for the GT2 and it was nowhere near the numbers I was getting from 10k max. Be open minded about what may suit you
That's because ping sucks
Just been fitted into the Ping G430 Max.
Do you think Titleist have ripped off the recently released Kirkland driver with the G2?
These reviewers are in a tough spot. They want to give you an honest opinion but they have to be super careful or they 1) won’t get the early access they need to new products. They need this early access to generate views. 2) they could possibly get sued.
James, Titleist did a carbon top driver years ago… The 909 D-Comp
Very confusing video. Your inside vs outside footage are completely contradicting
Ok James I am so jealous of that beautiful golf course. You should invite a follower to come to the UK and play some of those great courses. To the point of these drivers I am very glad I waited until this driver came out because I am ready to replace my Epic Speed.
GT2 crap where as Ping 10k Max dogs bullocks.
I'm not sure a PGA Pro is the right person to demonstrate forgiveness. Thinking I'd rather have a +20 handicapper hit them both about 25 teams each and then see what their spread is.
Buzzer wars in the comment
I have been doing a lot of testing with gt2 vs my AI Smoke triple diamond. AI Smoke is miles longer, goes further and straighter on missed hits, and continually has higher ball speed. For me, gt2 launches too high and spins about 500 rpm more than the Callaway. It's good, it does exactly as advertised. Higher launch, more spin, but everything else is the same as most drivers.
Bought the ping, love it
When testing for forgiveness, surely you should try hitting them all over the face & look at dispersion?
Just get a tsr2 or 3, they don’t just become bad overnight!! Save a load of cash
I really tried to like the GT2 but finally ended up with the Ping g430 Max 10k. Very happy with it.
The second drive, the ping won easily. You hit it like dog 💩 and it still was middle and right next to the gt2. Your opinions throughout are confusing at best. Feels like you’re pushing GT2. Paid advertisement. GT2 is mid. Same as your integrity.
GT2 is mid at best.
I tried the 430max, 10K and the GT2. The 10K was too spinny, the 440 and GT2 were very similar but the the GT2 was very consistent. The numbers were the same for every swing. The 430 won out on price. One interesting thing was the 430Max was the best with the same shaft that the Ping online driver fitting recommended.
