Quick Answer

Kihei Akina plays a PING G440 LST driver, PING i240 irons, PING S159 wedges, and a PING PLD Anser putter, as recorded in the October 2025 bag snapshot. The driver is built with a Fujikura Ventus Black VeloCore+ 6 X shaft.

Kihei Akina arrives on this page with a short paper trail. The equipment record holds a single verified bag, logged 21 October 2025, and no career milestones are documented alongside it, so the clubs carry the profile for now. Every head in that bag is PING. The driver is a G440 LST at 9 degrees, the low spin head in that family, fitted with a Fujikura Ventus Black VeloCore+ 6 X. The irons split the way most tour sets do, i240 in the 4 and 5 for launch and forgiveness at the top, then Blueprint S from 6 through pitching wedge where control matters more than help. Both sections run True Temper Dynamic Gold Tour Issue 120 in X100, so weight and step pattern stay constant across the transition. The putter is a PLD Anser. One brand through the heads, one shaft family through the irons, nothing loose in the setup.

Bag History

1 snapshots tracked, 2025

The 21 October 2025 bag is the only snapshot on record in this database, so there is no change history to read yet. What it does show is a full PING build with no mixed brands anywhere in the heads, including a split iron set that keeps a single shaft spec from the 4 iron down to the pitching wedge. Future snapshots will determine whether that is a long standing setup or a recent one.
