Won the MyGolfSpy Most Wanted Fairway Wood test by excelling in all three scoring categories — distance, accuracy, and forgiveness — rather than dominating a single metric. It is the most consistently performing fairway wood across the board.
The face is 7% taller than the G430 Max, making it more confidence-inspiring off the tee while maintaining excellent turf interaction from the fairway. Face optimization in heel and toe regions preserves ball speed on mishits with only a few mph lost.
If you want the absolute longest fairway wood or the absolute most forgiving, the G440 Max is not the category winner in either. Its strength is delivering above-average marks in every metric — 132.8 mph ball speed, 207 yards carry, 220 total — with one of the tightest shot areas tested.
Available in 3-wood (15 deg), 4-wood (17 deg), 5-wood (19 deg), 7-wood (21 deg), and 9-wood (24 deg). The free hosel design and CarbonFly Wrap create a modern, clean look at address with optimized CG placement.
