No thread on these is wild to me (at least I searched and searched to no avail), not many release cycles that generate the buzz or eyes that PING does. I know there have been some rollout hiccups, but the feedback I have read everywhere has been consistently positive. I really enjoyed getting to review the G30 fairways and ended up playing them for almost a season, one thing PING consistently does in fairways is make easy launching designs, which feedback seems to indicate is still the case here.
The fairways have my eye, not in the 3W, but the 7W as a HW replacement. This isn't a review, its just cool new golf gear. There's some cool tech here:
From PING:
The G400 fairway woods' ball speed and stopping power come from an innovative maraging steel face that flexes 30% more, making them our hottest, highest-launching fairway woods ever. One of the strongest alloys in the world, maraging steel is commonly used in the aerospace industry, where strength and flexibility are necessities.
Maraging Steel Face
Extremely thin and more flexible, the innovative maraging steel face generates faster ball speeds to launch shots farther, higher, and straighter.
Thinnest Crown
The 17-4 SS crown is cast ultra-thin for weight savings to optimize the CG location and increase total MOI (high-low, heel-toe) for full-face forgiveness. Crown turbulators increase ball speed and provide a captured look.
Machined Back Weight
The machined back weight is more dense to increase total MOI for extreme forgiveness with maximum stability while enabling you to customize your swing weight. You can fine-tune your launch conditions prior to a round by adjusting loft up to +-1º.
Reduced Spin
The face texture reduces spin, and the head’s cascading sole increases face flexing for higher launch.
Alta CB Premium Shaft
PING’s proprietary counter-balance design allows for more mass in the head to increase energy transfer. Color-Shift Paint Technology means the vibrant copper shaft paint transitions to nearly black as you address the ball to eliminate distraction.
