More and more of the world’s best players are putting this club in their bag and I’m going to put it to the test off the te the Fairway the rough and even around the greens to show you why you should consider putting this unorthodox Club in your bag so the club

We’re going to be talking about in this video is the 9wood now ping have kindly supplied us with the g430 Max 9wood and before we get into any of the performance I want to just talk about how good this thing looks behind the ball now for those who lack confidence

When playing into greens from distance and with lck confidence when striking long irons that confidence will surge when they put this ninew behind the ball it’s a much larger footprint than the four iron or even the hybrid equivalent and that alone will inspire confidence but the fact it’s got a shallow face and

A wide body really makes it look as though you can get under the ball and produce a really high towering ball flight coming into greens now those those who don’t struggle with confidence may like the look of the 4 IR or the hybrid equivalent but some of the

World’s bests have actually put the ninew in play notably Tommy Fleetwood at the Players championship last year so that is just to prove that this club it’s not just for high handicappers or those who struggle from distance it’s it’s all about confidence it’s all about what makes you feel as though you can

Execute the right shot from distance now we find ourselves here in a really common situation on the golf course we’ve got a long approach shot into a par four now this happens to be about 215 yards which is exactly where I would normally hit a four iron from and there

Are benefits to having a long iron in the bag a a more confident ball Striker would prefer to use a for IR perhaps to lower the flight or control the flight a bit better as well as work it into certain pin positions now I’m going to

Hit one here we’ve got quite a tight light off a down slope so let’s see how that ball flight goes it’s turning back in nicely and it’s pitched just on the right hand side of the green there and that scuttled forward about five or six

Yards which I have to say I was half expecting coming off this L but also just using a long iron in general now I’m expecting to see a much different ball flight if I was to use a ninew so let’s give that a go we’re going to put

It down in a very similar light so a good lie but quite tight off this Fairway off a down slope now the reason why this n would be so much more beneficial for I believe most golfers honestly is the fact that it’s got a much wider sole we’ve got a Tungsten

Weight at the back which lows and pulls the center of gravity back increasing the Forgiveness now the ball speed itself will also be much hotter than on the iron equivalent they are the same L 24° but thanks to that larger footprint head and more springy face we’re likely

To see a much higher more energetic ball flight which will have the ball coming in at a much steeper for thecenter angle let’s hit one wow the difference was there to see I mean that has come down almost like it was a n99 coming into that green it’s

Held the green gone about 20t landed very softly and rode the win perfectly exactly how I would like if you’re someone who plays on firmer golf courses and wants more or launch coming into those greens from distance the 9wood is your best bet now as you can see from the data the

4 iron and 9wood produce very similar numbers when it comes to carry and ball speed and they are on completely opposite ends of the spectrum the ninew is producing a much higher ball flight with more spin whereas the forine is producing slower ball speeds with a

Flatter ball flight now if we were to get a hybrid in a much in a closer Loft then I would expect to see this sit exactly in the middle but I would definitely urge more golfers to go towards the higher end of the spectrum go more towards a 9wood or a hybrid

Rather than the four iron there’s so much more forgiveness and versatility from this club so that’s enough of the data let’s get the ninew onto the course put it in a few different situations and see how it performs okay so I’m here at the beautiful Santo DEA Golf Club in

Madira and as you can see ahead of me I am faced with a fairly simple bump and run ship shot now most golfers up for a wedge a lofted wedge at that or maybe the less confident players would opt for a putter but rarely would anyone opt for

A metal wood well that was the same for me until I put this ninew in play now I’m someone who’s really struggled with my chipping as of late I’m duffing the ball a lot I am thinning the ball also but where this club excels is the fact

That it’s got such a wide Soul there is so much margin for error when it comes to using this club around the green it must be said it’s not great when a bunker is in front of you and between you yourself and and the green but on

Shots like this where there’s nothing in play I can simply bump this forward and get it running along the green now the titanium face does take a bit of use to it does come off quite hot and so the few times you use it it may go a long

Way past the pin but once you get used to it you’ll notice just how useful the nine wood becomes around the green now also the stroke itself much shorter when using a nine wood so far less can go wrong let’s hit one and see how we get on

So as you can see popped up really nicely it has gone a little far and that does take a bit of getting used to but there’s far more margin for error when using a nine wood round the green when there’s no obstacles in the way and

You’ve got a simple bump and run shot the 9wood isely something you should choose now the other situation where this club may come in handy is if you’re an erratic driver of the golf ball like myself myself I’ve missed the Fairway here I’m in quite a juicy lie where if I

Was to use a long iron the huzzle may get wrapped up in the raft snaggy and end up pulling one left but thanks to the wide sole low cental gravity and plenty of Loft on this face I should be able to get underneath it pop it up and

Produce a really high ball flight now one of the first things when I look down at this club when it is in the raft is how much more confidence this gives me than when I’m using a long iron the rounded Leading Edge really makes me

Feel as if I can kind of get under the ball and really give it that Loft that it it’s got on the club head already uh long iron looks quite flat looks as if it’s going to come out low anyway and so when it’s out the rough it is even

Harder to execute the shot you’re looking for I’m going to give one a go here see if we can get it up riding the wind and coming in softly into this green well as you can probably tell from the audio that came out absolutely flush I’m really happy with that and it’s a

Shot that I don’t think personally I could have executed with a long IR so there you have it hopefully you’ve enjoyed this video on what performance is on offer from a ninew and why you should potentially consider putting one of these in your bag me personally I’ve

Really enjoyed using it off the deck as well as into really long path 3es I love seeing that high towering ball flight that this club offers and I’ve noticed so much more forgiveness on strike when it comes to playing from distance over my forine there’s clearly a lot of

Versatility on offer with this club and it also looks great behind the balls so there’s no wonder why plenty of the world’s bests are putting this club in play and why I think many golfers especially higher handicappers looking for more forgiveness should Too
