What stands out about the G loft?
Gap pattern: Uniform 3° spacing across every adjacent loft.
G loft progression
How evenly are the G lofts spaced?
Every adjacent loft is exactly 3° apart. That gives the G a perfectly even static-loft progression from one option to the next.
G vs other PING fairway wood lofts
This comparison uses the same benchmark club where possible and shows nearby lower, similar and higher PING lofts when available.
| PING Model | Benchmark Club | Loft | Difference |
|---|---|---|---|
| G10 | 3W | 14° | 0.5° lower loft |
| Anser | 3W | 14.5° | Same loft |
| G | 3W | 14.5° | This model |
| G30 | 3W | 14.5° | Same loft |
| G20 | 3W | 15° | 0.5° higher loft |
| G10 Draw | 3W | 15.5° | 1° higher loft |
Which G club has each loft?
- 14.5° = 3-wood.
- 17.5° = 5-wood.
- 20.5° = 7-wood.

G Loft Intelligence
These derived specs show how the fairway-wood lineup is spaced and where its loft structure is tight or wide.
14.5° to 20.5°
between adjacent lofts
Very even
7-wood
5W to 7W structure: 3° separates the 5-wood and 7-wood.
Spacing efficiency: The 6° total loft span is divided into 2 equal steps of 3°. There are no compressed or oversized loft jumps in the lineup.
Coverage: The family spans 6° from the 3-wood to the 7-wood.
How the G lofts affect the shot
Loft is one of the biggest inputs into launch, trajectory, rollout and stopping power. The table below translates each G loft into its likely loft-only shot tendency.
Low–mid launch • Moderate–high roll
Mid–high launch • Moderate–high stopping
Low–mid → Mid–high launch tendency
Distance → control as loft increases
| Club | Loft | Launch Tendency | Flight Window | Roll Tendency | Stopping Tendency | Loft-Driven Role |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 3W | 14.5° | Low–mid | Strong / penetrating | Moderate–high | Low–moderate | Distance-first fairway slot |
| 5W | 17.5° | Mid | Balanced | Moderate | Moderate | Versatile distance / approach slot |
| 7W | 20.5° | Mid–high | Higher / softer | Low–moderate | Moderate–high | Approach / long-par-3 friendly slot |
What the loft gaps mean for shot separation
- 3-wood → 5-wood: 3° — Moderate loft step — a conventional separation on paper.
- 5-wood → 7-wood: 3° — Moderate loft step — a conventional separation on paper.
Fairway-wood note: Lower-loft woods are biased toward speed, flatter flight and more rollout; higher-loft woods trade some distance for easier launch, steeper descent and more stopping power. A high-loft fairway can therefore behave very differently from a hybrid with the same number on the sole.
G distance-to-control map
| Part of lineup | Reference club | Loft | What the loft favors |
|---|---|---|---|
| Distance end | 3-wood | 14.5° | Low–mid launch, moderate–high roll, stronger distance bias |
| Middle | 5-wood | 17.5° | Mid launch, more balanced carry/control role |
| Control end | 7-wood | 20.5° | Mid–high launch, moderate–high stopping tendency, stronger control bias |
Spec note: Loft can vary with model year, region, special configuration or custom fitting. Verify an exact club against PING documentation or measurement when a single degree matters.
