“Ultralight, high-launch women's fairway wood - rung-1 forgiveness for slower speeds; the light shaft is the fit, not a downgrade.”
Launched alongside the rest of the G Le2 family in July 2019, this fairway wood paired a thinner, faster maraging C300 steel face with Ping's eight-position adjustable hosel, giving fitters real loft and lie adjustment (roughly plus or minus 1.5 degrees) on a women's-specific fairway wood rather than a single fixed setting - a genuine step up in fitting flexibility over the non-adjustable G Le fairway wood it replaced. Ping again built in extra heel-side weighting specifically to combat the common block-or-slice miss, on the lightweight ULT 240 graphite shaft with a garnet-colored Golf Pride Tour Velvet 360 grip. It shipped in 19, 22, 26 and 30-degree lofts (3-, 5-, 7- and 9-wood) at roughly $270 per club.
A well-specified, purpose-built forgiveness club with genuine adjustability advances over its predecessor, but no independent reputation or scarcity of its own - valued today purely on functional merit rather than any collectible status.
Slower or moderate-swing-speed women golfers, especially those who fight a slice or block, who also want the option of having loft and lie precisely adjusted by a fitter; not aimed at a stronger player wanting to shape shots.
Part of the July 2019 G Le2 launch that succeeded the 2017 G Le fairway wood, itself succeeded by the G Le3 fairway wood in 2023 - Ping's roughly two-to-three-year women's product refresh cadence.
The thinner maraging C300 face increases ball speed and MOI versus the prior CarTech 455 generation, and the retained heel-side weighting specifically targets the slice/block miss; the eight-position hosel lets a fitter fine-tune launch rather than accept one fixed configuration, adding a real fitting-precision dimension to its forgiveness.
Calibrated across the whole catalog — a tour blade scores low here on purpose; it means control, not ease.
Used units generally sell for roughly $107-$185 today against an original ~$280 retail price, ordinary depreciation for a superseded women's fairway wood with no collector premium.
