PGA Tour Superstore is fresh off a massive June sale that saw everything from TaylorMade golf clubs to breathable pants from TravisMathew get markdowns of up to 40% off their normal prices. Though the sale has ended, select golf clubs are still on sale, including Ping's bestselling driver—and it's $150 off.
The Ping G425 Max Driver is now on sale at PGA Tour Superstore for $400—a 27% savings on the normal $550 price. This driver has earned more than 600 five-star ratings from golf-loving shoppers who say it's "head and shoulder above" their previous drivers. It's currently available for both left- and right-handed golfers and is highly customizable, with three loft options, two different shafts, three flexes, and two grips from which to choose.

This Ping driver is the most forgiving in the G425 series, increasing the moment of inertia to the highest level possible due mainly to a better movable tungsten weight that allows you to set it for shots you want to draw, fade, or keep neutral. This driver also includes Ping's T9S+ forged face that's built a reputation for better ball speeds and greater distance traveled.
There's a lot of technology packed into this driver, but what people seem to love most is how it helps produce consistent shots. "This is a keeper," one shopper said. "I found the feeling superior to all I have played with. Shots were consistent, and by striking the ball in the center, I gained distance as well. I purchased the driver, 3 and 5-woods, and I like all three. But the driver is my friend…It just goes straight and, as mentioned, is very repetitive."

Many other shoppers also say they've noticed an uptick in distance when using this driver. "My one-year-old Callaway driver broke and I used to hit it 200-210 yards with a regular shaft," a shopper began. "The next day I was golfing so I used my friend's Ping G425 Max…I started hitting it 230-240 yards consistently, and usually in the fairways."
If you're looking to upgrade your driver for summer rounds and customization is something you're after, Ping's G425 Max needs to be on your radar. Not only are there a ton of club spec combinations to choose from, but the weight shifter adds a deeper level of competitiveness for varying holes. We're not sure how long this sale will last, so make sure to pick yours up soon.
