G425 SFT Loft Intelligence
These derived specs show how the fairway-wood lineup is spaced and where its loft structure is tight or wide.
16° to 22°
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 G425 SFT lofts affect the shot
Loft is one of the biggest inputs into launch, trajectory, rollout and stopping power. The table below translates each G425 SFT loft into its likely loft-only shot tendency.
Low–mid launch • Moderate–high roll
High launch • High stopping
Low–mid → High launch tendency
Distance → control as loft increases
| Club | Loft | Launch Tendency | Flight Window | Roll Tendency | Stopping Tendency | Loft-Driven Role |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 3W | 16° | Low–mid | Strong / penetrating | Moderate–high | Low–moderate | Distance-first fairway slot |
| 5W | 19° | Mid–high | Higher / softer | Low–moderate | Moderate–high | Approach / long-par-3 friendly slot |
| 7W | 22° | High | High / soft | Lower | High | High-launch approach 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.
G425 SFT distance-to-control map
| Part of lineup | Reference club | Loft | What the loft favors |
|---|---|---|---|
| Distance end | 3-wood | 16° | Low–mid launch, moderate–high roll, stronger distance bias |
| Middle | 5-wood | 19° | Mid–high launch, more balanced carry/control role |
| Control end | 7-wood | 22° | High launch, 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.
