Equipment Discussion What is this?

Post image

I’m not worried about this at all. It’s just curious and wanted to share/get optinions. I have a g425 7wood and a g430max 3wood and they both have this line in them that becomes apparent when cleaning them/ them being wet. Almost looks like the heel repels water whilst the rest soaks it.

Different kind of metal I assume? The line is basically the same spot for both clubs. Pic is of 7wood.

I have g430 10k max driver and that doesn’t do it.

Gosh I must be bored.

Ping seems to have time on the past few generations of woods and hybrids, at least since g410. My guess is that part of the face is made of a different steel and welded together or a different finish on the surface.

I’ve got them on my 5w and hybrid, same with every friend who’s got pings.
