Has Driver Tech Really Improved That Much? G430 Max vs 975D

Today, we’re putting two generations of golf drivers head-to-head — my Ping G430 Max versus the legendary Titleist 975D Titanium from 1998! ⛳️

Every year, golf manufacturers tell us their latest driver is faster, straighter, and more forgiving — but just how far has driver technology really come in the last 25 years?

The Titleist 975D was the driver back in the day. Tiger Woods was winning everything with it in his bag, and everyone wanted one! It’s compact at just 260cc, simple, and elegant — a true classic. In contrast, the Ping G430 Max is a 460cc powerhouse packed with technology, adjustability, and forgiveness.
