Choose the G425 if a used set with the clubs you need costs less than a new G440 and you like a higher flight club for club.
Choose the G440 if you want a new set, its matching wedges, or the longer long irons.
Two generations apart, the G425 and the G440 share the figures our score reads: a game improvement head with 4.6 mm of offset at the 7-iron, so both score 3.5 of 5. The G440's lofts are stronger (a 29° 7-iron against 30°, a 42° pitching wedge against 44.5°), its 4-, 5- and 6-irons are longer by PING's tables, and PING gives it a face built to flex more. PING no longer makes the G425, so it is bought used.
A forgiving game improvement iron with what PING calls a players-style look: 4.6 mm of offset and a 29° 7-iron. For a slow swing, the G440 HL is the same head in a lighter build.
Fits golfers who make decent contact and want help on the misses with a slimmer head.
Choose the G740 instead if thin and heavy strikes are your main miss: it has the bigger, wider-soled head. For a lighter build that suits a slower swing, look at the G440 HL.
A forgiving game improvement iron with what PING calls a players-style look: 4.6 mm of offset and a 29° 7-iron. For a slow swing, the G440 HL is the same head in a lighter build.
The G740 is PING's bigger, more forgiving head: PING gives it a wider sole, a longer blade and a thicker topline, slightly more offset at the 7-iron (4.8 mm against 4.6 mm) and a lie 1° more upright.
The same head with the same lofts, so the same score, 3.5 of 5: a 29° 7-iron and 4.6 mm of offset (PING prints it as 0.18" on the G440 page and 0.175" on the HL page).
The G440 replaced the G430, and the two share the figures our score reads: the same 4.6 mm of offset at the 7-iron, the same 29° 7-iron and the same lofts from the 4-iron to the 9-iron, so both score 3.5 of 5.
The G440 is the forgiving one: PING's game improvement iron, 3.5 of 5 here, against 1 of 5 for the i240, PING's compact players' iron with a shorter blade and a thin topline.
PING's tables give the G410 and the G425 the same lofts, lies, lengths, offsets and bounces, club for club, from a 20.5° 4-iron to the 58° LW, with a 30° 7-iron and 4.6 mm of offset.
Both are game improvement irons of the same era, the G425 a year older than the Stealth, and the G425 is a little more forgiving by our score, 3.5 of 5 against 3.
Two game improvement irons with nearly the same lofts: by the makers' tables they match from the 4-iron to the AW or UW (a 29° 7-iron and a 42° PW in both), but for the 6-iron, half a degree stronger on the Elyte.
The G730 is the more forgiving, 5 of 5 here against the G440's 3.5: it is PING's previous super game improvement iron, with a larger head and a wider sole, where the G440 is its current game improvement iron.
