PING Prodi G 2024 Junior Driver

Specification-based assessment. Researched from the manufacturer's and retailer's published specifications, plus independent research into junior golf fit and use. See our review methodology for how ratings are calculated.

PING's junior driver, sized 53"-60" with a 460cc titanium-faced head and a lightweight graphite shaft.

Who it suits

Families custom-building or topping up a junior's bag club by club rather than buying a boxed set - typically once a child has outgrown a starter set and a coach or parent wants to fit each club properly.

Specifications

[@portabletext/react] Unknown block type "undefined", specify a component for it in the `components.types` prop

Strengths

The thinner Ti 6-4 face and Spinsistency technology are aimed at consistent ball speed and spin, while a lower centre of gravity and higher MOI add forgiveness on off-centre hits - genuine adult-driver engineering scaled down, not a toy.

Limitations

Only one loft option (15°) is offered, so there's no low- or high-spin variant to fine-tune for a particular swing. It's also a meaningfully higher price than a driver bundled into a complete junior set.

Value for money

At $416.49, this is a premium price for a single club - it only makes sense once you're deliberately fitting rather than just wanting a driver.

Australian availability

In stock through GolfBox at time of writing.

Final verdict

A premium but properly-fitted driver for families who want to build a junior bag club by club rather than buy a boxed set.
