Ping engineered its LST fairway line for golfers seeking a compact profile, lower spin rates, and a penetrating ball flight. Designed to deliver controlled distance and workability from both the tee and the turf, it primarily caters to players with higher swing speeds who need to manage spin without sacrificing overall stability.
This right-handed 19-degree 5-wood is in excellent condition and comes built with a Graphite Design AD DI-7 shaft and a Jumbo MCC+4 grip. This stout setup is ideal for golfers with larger hand sizes and aggressive swing tempos who want a stable, controlled ball flight with reduced grip pressure through impact.
Fairway woods and hybrids live or die on turf interaction, which is why sole shape matters more here than in any other club. A wide, rounded sole glides and suits sweeping players and softer Lowcountry turf; a shallower, flatter sole digs less but demands a cleaner strike. Look at the wear pattern on the sole of this club — where a previous owner made contact tells you honestly how the head sits and releases through the grass.
Gapping is the other question worth answering before you buy. A fairway wood that carries within ten yards of your driver or your longest iron is a club you will not use. Bring your current carry numbers, or we can measure them, and choose loft so this club fills a real gap rather than duplicating one you already cover.
Length is the quiet variable. Stock fairway woods run long, and many golfers strike a 3-wood far better after half an inch comes off and the swing weight is rebalanced. That is a quick bench adjustment we can make on this club, and it usually does more for consistency than switching models.
NiceDivot is a repair-first workshop, so inventory is a by-product of bench work rather than the main business. Items arrive as trade-ins, customer clear-outs, and shop builds. Before anything appears here it gets cleaned, inspected for structural damage, and measured — length, loft and lie where applicable, swing weight, and grip condition. Anything that fails inspection is repaired or scrapped, not photographed from a forgiving angle.
That is also why the condition language above is deliberately unglamorous. "Good" means it has been played and it shows; "excellent" means light cosmetic wear with performance surfaces intact. We describe the flaws we found so that what arrives matches what you read, because a returned club costs us more than an honest listing ever will.
