Once again what seemed to be a brutally honest video. Well Done! I have a Proto driver 2 Gen3 hybrids as well as 52 and 56 degree wedges. I was fitted for all of these and I believe the key to PXG and their success is the fitting process. I have been playing golf for 35 years and I have never hit clubs as well as these PXG's. The feel is amazing and the consistency boggles my mind. In my mind they have become the standard bearer in club fitting.
Bought a set of 0311 XF with the MMT 70 shaft this winter. Played 3 rounds now and love them. The Gen4 look great, but can’t imagine better performance. Also, got the 0211 driver and that thing is awesome for the money. I’m a PXG convert.
Tom --- thanks for feedback on the 0311XF and 0211 driver. What's your approx 7 iron distance / swing speed if you know between your old clubs and your new 0311XP and any comment on holding greens with 7 iron? Forgiveness etc....
@@JohnnyDSR I have the 0311 XF (bot close out in Feb) which is a 30 degree 7 iron vs the new XP’s 7 that is 28 degrees. I fly the 7 XF right at 147 on a good weather day, but at least 142 on cooler-wind days. I have a new set of Srixon Z4’s with 28 degree 7 iron that I fly 4-5 years further. My swing speed varies but is in the 79-85 range with 7 iron. Both sets are great, but love the feel of the PXGs. Hope this helps.
Thank you The Average Golfer for all your great videos. If I may make a suggestion to make them even better! I would look into getting a ground mic that will just pick up the strike of the ball, as your your clip on mic picks up way too much noise from your jacket during the swing. Keep the great content coming!
I'm a bogey golfer. I bought an early set of Gen1 XF steel shaft irons when the brand debuted. I enjoyed them for a few years, then bought a set of Gen2 XPs with graphite steel shafts. I enjoy those, as well and my swing has improved. In considering Gen4, sure the XP model is advertised to play farther, but look at the specs: Ah-hah! The shafts are 1/2" longer and the lofts are 3 degrees stronger! I'm not very tall and not getting any younger, so I'm not looking for irons with longer shafts and strong lofts. If I upgrade to Gen 4, I'm anxious to take a look at the P model. Still forgiving, but the shaft lengths and lofts remain the same. If I hit them better than my Gen2 XPs, I will put'em in the bag!
I'm seriously considering the Full Bag deal with the Gen 4s since almost all of my clubs are 20+ years old at this point....including the sugar daddy II wedges in the deal make it very attractive. Thanks for these videos.
i was on the fence until i did the fitting. i noticed a remakable difference in my shots immediately. they got my ball spin down from 10000 to 7000 and i hit on average 15 yards further per iron. i would 100% reccomend doing the fitting to get a taste for if the clubs are right for you. its only like $65 right now.
Thanks for the feedback. I was wondering if the G4 series were a substantial improvement over the G3. Does not really sound like it. I wanted to add that you do not have any reason to apologize for your PXG reviews. I believe your reviews are honest. I can tell you I would have never gone to PXG if I did not get to hit a used set at the range. From the first strike I felt this was the club for me and by the time I got to the PXG's I had been looking for several weeks hitting the MP20 line, Apex and TM. None of them did for me what the 1st strike with the PXG did. I will also say I got the G3's during the big sale at the end of 2020. They were actually less expensive than any of than the above irons. So, I share your enthusiasm for the PXG brand and I am not a shill. Neither are you! Keep up the good, honest work.
Funny because I searched for two years for a replacement for my trusty MP-64s (just not good enough to play them anymore). After trying MP-20 HMB and Mavrik Pro for a few months each and not getting along with them, I ended up buying the PXG Gen3 combo set (P 5-6 + T 7-PW). I wish I'd stuck with the P on the 7-iron for a little more forgiveness but overall I feel like I've finally found a set I can play another 5+ years.
Just got fitted for irons, wedges, driver and a 5 wood. I went in to fit the 2021 0211 but hitting a 7 iron 185 yards was a bit much. I ended up with 4-PW gen2 0311 P, 50, 54, 60 forged wedges , the 0211 driver and a 5 wood. The fitting experience was awesome fun and learned a ton about my golf swing, ball flight, etc. I would recommend fittings for everybody. By the way, the gen 2 0311 P was $129 US per club...GREAT price for an awesome iron...I can hardly wait!
Just fit for the gen4 0311t. They have not came in yet but I do have a comment about the fitting. My fitter was great and the facility was great. They only have 7 irons during the fitting! I play a 3 iron but I couldn’t hit a long iron during the fitting. I may have wanted a blended set with more forgiveness, security in the long iron but i could not try it before I bought it. The gen 4 head weight is outstanding though. Each gram added or subtracted was very noticeable. I’m happy with my purchase but for the amount paid I should be able to test long irons at minimum. I could got to any dicks sporting goods and hit a taped 3 iron. Yet not at the the top notch PXG?
Love the look of the Gen 4 and Gen 3. Not a fan of the 0211. I did try the Gen 3 a year ago and I felt like it wasn't as soft as my Miura's. I'll have to try the Gen 4's when I get a chance. Would love to see what you think of them compared to the feel of a Miura club.
I would agree. I have the Miura CB 301 and love the clubs but I didn't want to change until I found something as soft. I got fitted for the 0311 P Gen 4 yesterday and they're softer than my Miuras and offer greater forgiveness, higher flight, and hate to say it a cheaper than my Miuras.
So I’m still confused on the differences between the three models. Is this correct: XP = most forgiving and strongest lofted (for high handicappers) P= medium forgiving and medium lofted (for med handicappers) T= least forgiving and least lofted (for low handicappers)
You'd have to pry these 0311P gen3's with graphite MMT's out of my cold dead hands. I love these irons and unless the gen4's shaves another 10 strokes off my game, then I'm keeping what I have. Great review by the way.
Had a set of gen 4 about 3 months now, Really pleased with them Fitted with Graphite shafts s need to learn to control the aggression in my swing. If I do the flight and sound is like no other club I have ever had.
I enquired through pxg uk for any uk emergency services others. At the time I was told no, this still might/might not be the case as I decided to buy else where.
Hi, thanks for sharing the P irons and the T irons are standard 37" the XP is 37 1/2 inches length, where all the same at 37" or where the XP the half inch longer?
I live in Arizona, interesting fact theirs a small storm brewing between the golf manufacturers out here. Between Ping and PXG they’ve been trying to one-up each other for awhile. Now there’s a smaller club maker, making noise with their irons “New Level Golf” check them out!
Hi...loved my Gen 2 SGI irons ....but I then went to Gen 3 XP irons and was a little disappointed .... then yesterday I was fitted for the GEN 4 P irons and all i can say is WOW i love the feel and the flight of the ball off these irons....can't wait for golf season.... cheers all from Canada
PXG undoubtedly are making some fantastic irons. But much like I can't afford an Aston Martin, I can't afford a set of these. However it doesn't stop me from appreciating the design, technology and beauty in both! 😍😍😍
Had a fitting today with the intention of getting the gen3 ended up with the gen4 , damn they feel nice , I know everyone says it but I was genuinely 1/2 club longer with the gen4, don’t know why just was. I went wanting the 3’s but my bad shots were so much better with the 4’s
Great information-Awesome video! The GEN 4 Irons look outstanding! I have the GEN 3 but soon I will have the GEN 4s! Thank you for your candid observations of these clubs!
I am really enjoying my PXG-0311XP-G4's Hoepefully, you have been fit. The PXG fitting pro emphasized that the weighting of the irons should be adjusted by a PXG fitter. The woods are easily adjusted with a wrench.
I recall posting a response so many years ago about price (negativeLy so) PXG is a quality product and that they are now priced so competitively means if you are in the market. . . . these must be a consideration . . . you cannot afford to ignore them! Great review!
You tried the cobra tech forged? New jpx or the p790 and if so imho callaway a apex pros are above all those listed in feel alone. If you tell me with a straight face pxg feels better than that or newest titliest I’d be interested.
Excellent video again! Love the comparison to a premium car, with entry level to high end! I think PXG has really upped their game with the 0211 line and the Gen 4 0311’s!
Have a question for Andy and the audience of this video. I was fitted earlier in the year and ended up with a set of Gen3 P with the steelfiber shafts, 5-P. Interested in getting a slightly longer iron to slot between the 5 iron and my 21* hybrid (old Titleist 816 that I just can't remove from the bag!). Hit the hybrid 200, the 5 iron 180. Thinking about an XP iron with the same shaft. Would the 4 be too long, could the 5 in the XP actually be the better progression? Or should I get the 4 but have it bent slightly weaker? Any other recommendations? Thanks!!
THanks for the review. You mention that they. are a forged iron. So is the gen 3. I am on the fence between ordering the gen 3 and gen 4. It seems to me that they just took the middle screws and made a single bigger one in the middle. THere is quite a price difference. Do you truly feel the gen 4 is worth the price increase or really just appearance? Thanks.
I hit both when the Gen4 irons were released, for me not enough of a performance difference between the 3 and 4 and i honestly thought the 3 felt softer.
I have them in both the 2011 DC (MMT)and also picked up their new 3x forged 0211 XT Elevate 95 ..... they really perform great, feel great, look great, sound great and are priced great! PXG seems to have made a strategic decision to commit to provide tiered offerings but without sacrificing quality. Sure... less tungsten fine tuning in 0211 but hey.... that produces less cost! Their may be a method to their madness --- Their real intellectual property is how they have advanced the elastomer technology to support such a thin forged face while enhancing sound and feel.
@@JohnnyDSR I used to be a 7 handicap and play Hogan Apex Edge irons, I took 6yrs off and now I'm a 13 handicap and feel my irons are a big reason, I want more forgiving irons. Think the 0211 would be decent choice without knowing more about my swing? Those hogan's are 17yrs old.
@@TheTactical6string Hard to say but if you were a 7, and playing Hogans, the 0211ST (3x forged) might suit your taste better than the 2011DC (which is polymer filled). The trick is the shaft selection. I would call PXG and have a pro fitter provide feedback to you. In fact I think they take off some $$ / club if you have the fitter help you and then place the order with him after shaft selection. (Don't hold me to that, but that's what I think I recalled earlier this year.) Good luck... Its always fun trying to get back to a benchmark Handicap!
I've had every generation of PXG irons. The PXG Gen3 where a phenomenal iron. These are even better. 2mph more ball speed and 6 yards. They feel better than any Mizuno or Miura iron you ever hit in your life too.
PXG is killing it and now making it in a good price point, Have a fitting scheduled. Would like to get your opinion between this and Mizuno Pro 225 . Your and my game is very similar but me not as good, They look so industrial and still very attractive. You nailed it that you can instantly tell it’s a PXG!
Just purchased (after a PXG fitting session) the 2021 0211’s and they are amazing irons. The price is mind boggling and the performance is outstanding. Great feel and distance and the looks are sexy as hell. Played Callaway before this. I’m a big fan of what PXG is doing.
I'm a weekend golfer and it's time for new clubs. I'm on the fence with T300, Rogue ST Max, and Gen 4 0311 XP. I really need forgiveness in my irons and age is slowing me down. Can't compare the three together, so can you offer any input on the Gen 4 0311 XP? Love your channel!!!
I’ve been a Ping guy since I was 13. One of the original Ping reps was a mentor of mine back in the late 70’s. Unfortunately I’ve been burned out for the past 10 years. I picked up a PXG iron about a month ago since then I haven’t been this excited to play golf in the past 8 years for me. I’ve had my fitting and now have a full bag of very sexy PXG’s. Love the brand and there story!
Got a set of gen 3 with mmt reg after talking to pxg to discuss my spec. I use 105 modus reg and these graphite were recommended. Didn’t get fitted as lockdown. Unfortunately they were terrible I could miss the green form 100yds left or right long or short and with no feel. So pxg are taking them back and fitting steel I’ve had to pay £210 extra for premium shafts but they are picking them up and delivering them again. Good service I hope these work as I love the look. I was 1 hcp for 28 yrs now 5 so I know what I need. Let’s hope they work. Keep up the good work. John
I got given a set of gen 3 P’s. I’m just comparing them to my 2021 P790’s at present. The feel is so much nicer on the PXG’s. My only negative is that the sole is a lot wider than what I like to see in the bag. But like you say if they perform then looks go out the window. Keep up the good reviews
Gen 4 is good but the Gen 3 & Gen 5 have a little softer feel to them IMPO. 👍🏼 Always loved the look of the PXG irons. 🇺🇸 No reason they can’t do both. Cast and Forged. I am currently playing the Gen 3 XP/ P combo set. XP in the longer irons and P in the shorter irons.
Just got a good deal on a used but almost mint 0311P Gen 3's. Based upon many comments and opinions including Andy's. Winter has set in but can't wait to give them a go come spring.😊
Love my 2021 PXG driver just been for an iron fitting, told the pro the funds were unlimited just wanted the best for me. I tried all the new releases and was getting very bored, nothing better than what I had got then as a last resort he gave me .... a Wilson D9 huck me long high, plenty of spin head and shoulders above the rest. They arrived within a week, been to the range tonight and can’t remember ever hitting the ball so well. Don’t be drawn by shiny things.
Anybody know why the ST is only 3X forged whereas the T is the 5X forged? Wondering what the feel differences are between the ST and T, also is the sole narrower on the ST? Really liked the Gen3 T except the sole was too wide for me
I’m a 2 handi and i went from the P to the XP. I agree that the XP is a no brainer. I can fade and draw them and the forgiveness is incredible on off center hits.
@@brentturner993 to be honest, I didn’t notice much difference in height or distance. I use project x 6.5 shafts so my ball flight is mid at best with both.
Love the intro music... I really appreciate the engineering that has gone into these new irons. Love the fact that you can change the weight and custom tune the irons...The only downside would be the price....I just started to use my new PXG 0811 driver and I'm amazed by the affect changing weights has on the ball. If the weight system in the irons is similar they have a winner on their hands...Love your videos......
What aerotech shafts/flex were you playing with in each club? There should have been a lot more of a gap between the xp/p models in the dry data. 3° gap and only 3 yards isn't right. As far as the fitting, the weight will be a big help. They don't swingweight(I've owned 2 sets and had to do it myself) which is strange considering all the weights in the previous 0311 models. At least now they will try which should help with people who like a certain feel in their irons.
I have the Gen 3P 4-P and 0211 wedges, and frankly I can’t recall how many iron sets I’ve gone through looking for that “perfect” club. I was fitted by Scott at ADS Golf in San Diego, and we settled on the Aerotech i95 R flex shafts, I have to say that these Gen 3 irons are the best performing irons I’ve ever played. It would be interesting to see a compare between Gen 3 vs Gen4.
Got a fitting next week with PXG....see if anything performs better than my 0211 which have been great. I really like what PXG do different to the masses
In regards to irons, PXG is the best in the business. The club engineering alone is superb and the materials are fantastic. I have the Gen2 0311 Ps and love them. I plan on graduating to the Gen 4’s later this year and will have an on-site fitting in Scottsdale.
I'm a Gen2 users and love them. I really like the idea of being able to test swing weight in a fitting. As soon as the Gen4s come down in price I may have to get a set.
I don't think I could find a fault with the performance of the Gen4 irons but the price is ridiculous. Can get the best of other brands for half the price. That's the fault. They are not that good.
How do either the gen 3 or 4 stack up to titliest T100? Never even thought about these over priced irons but I’m drawn more and more to them. (I’m a low handicapped middle faces irons) played ap2 since 2013. Anyone can answer how do these irons stack up to say p790s or callaway apex pros? Or titliest T100s? These are players irons I have hit many of times just curious of anyone’s thoughts .
@@TheAverageGolfer they are the best feeling clubs I’ve hit in a long time. Always a good debate, blades or not. I think most players benefit from blades. Tighter dispersion on well struck shots, less chance of flyer etc
I went yesterday for a fitting trying to see if the 0211 was what I wanted. After hitting the 0211st and the Gen4 I was blown away with the forgiveness of the Gen4. The 0211 felt great but if slightly off center there were huge drop offs in distance. But to be fair I didn't try the bigger 0211, just the 0211st ( more blade style)
PXG biggest issue has always been cost - I am starting to see that drop though below the other main manufacturers of golf equipment so for the first time I can realistically look at PXG clubs whereas before I could not afford them.
Pxg 0311t WEIGHT Adjusting, when I was fitted for myself the heavier the weight the higher the launch and peak height, the lower the weight the more normal the height and peak height but too low of spin numbers and too high of dispersion. Unfortunately Club Champion fitter said the new 0311t was not a good match, my 6 plus year old original 0311t gave me better numbers with its D4 swing weight.
Great job ty,, myself iam gaming the apex,19s which I love and my brother games the Gen 3 line PXG at the range I took a few swings with his clubs and there no comparison with feel and sound Gen 3 is the winner hands down,, just picked up.apex DCB 6,5 irons not sure I made right decision but gonna roll with it!! I personally think PXG is the best feeling Iron out on the Market period!!! Thanks again !!
PXG expanding its target market is brilliant. More and more is being written about the average LPGA golfer and how their talents come closer to the better than average golfer male or female. PXG is very popular on the LPGA and for good reason. Performance, feel sound and forgiveness.... lower pricing and expand the market using there "Generation" branding model. Drop pricing on past Generations and keep making them! Smart !
@@GOLFADDICT65 fitting went well, done at Modern Golf in Vaughn with an authorized PXG fitter. I went with the Gen 2 0311 XF with graphite shafts, 1 deg flat.
Another great review, Andy is there a significant difference between the irons to upgrade. I currently have the 0211 and was considering moving up to gen3 at $189 per club. Knowing gen4 is $249 ,I'm wondering if there is a significant difference to move up to gen4. Any thoughts would be appreciated
I had a chance to try them, they feel smashing! But I just cannot afford the 0311. And in Germany it is still hard to even get the 0211 -- no fitters here that have them. Maybe in Bavaria, but not where I live.
get fit, have the fitter print out all the spec's, then read from that paper when ordering direct online, which is what I plan to do, as I am a retiree from the US military and therefore can claim PXG's "Heroes" discount
How did the T and P feel? They brought out the ST (blade) in the Gen 3 and I love a blade for 8/9/PW so it's not too hot off the face and I'm worried the T or P will be too hot. A few of the Tour Pros use the P model which I would never have guessed (I would've thought they would've used the T or ST but no they aren't).
@The Average Golfer This is the 3rd time I've watched this. In your opinion, is it worth an additional $1000 to get the Gen 4s, or can I save $1000 and keep with the Gen 3s I just ordered? That is how much additional it would cost me to order the Gen 4s. My Gen 3s arrive tomorrow, so I'm in the 30 day window. It would cost me an additional 15% to send back, so the Gen 4s would now cost me about $1200. So, is there enough tech and difference between the Gen 3s and 4s to justify paying the extra price? Or should I stay with the Gen 3s and be happy?
i have same issue but have not ordered yet...trying to decide between the Gen 4 or the Gen 3...... what did you end up doing and are you happy with your decision ...cheers from Canada
@@GOLFADDICT65 went with Gen 3 P. Loved the accuracy. Hated the distance loss. I lost 20 yards per club. PXG opened a shop here in Dallas. I went there 2 times trying to find those yards. Ended up giving up. I just went back to Callaway. Got the Apex 21s. Gained 15 yards back and shot a 76 my first ground with them last Friday.
I absolutely love my 0211’s - only played with them twice so far but they are brilliant. I think PXG are shaking up the market but they need to be a bit careful not to upset their customers with erratic pricing.
Beauty is the eye of the beholder. Personally, these pxg’s may be a great club, but don’t appeal to me. Saw that a few comments mentioned the sub70 irons; this company offers some very nice choices & I play a set of their 699 pro irons, being very satisfied with their feel/distance/accuracy. Even w/graphite shafts, made to my specs, were under $650, including shipping, here on our side of the pond. You should give these a review; it would be interesting to hear you comments, as I believe that you provide a nice honest take, on what you review...
Hi Andy, cool content as always. Thumbs up! What kind of shoes do you wear in this video? Could you just tell me the exact model? Thx & cheers from Hamburg Germany
Nice review yet again Andy. Off topic, what type of Nike golf shoes are you wearing? I see @ 22 seconds it says gore tex on them. I am just curious. Cheers
i am a bit late on the pxg band wagon but have been let down by callaway yet again seriously considering gen 4 xp whwer would i go to get a fitting near me i am in hampshire
Great analysis Andy! I got the new 0211 and they are not failing me one bit. Hope you get to review the new hybrids and do a comp against the 0211 hybrids.
mmmm still not sure what to do....i Live in Canada trying to decide between the Gen 4 and the Gen 3 irons ( Gen 4 currently are 345 per club Canadian...Gen 3 are 165 Canadian ) my question is do you think the Gen 4 are worth the increase compared to the Gen 3......I currently have Gen 2 SGI irons and love them but i wanna upgrade....value anyones view on this...thx and cheers from Canada
@@TheAverageGolfer thank you very much for the reply i was leaning to the 3's cause of the price.....i value your opinion ...thx for saving me some coin...lol... be safe and cheers from Canada
Currently play the original 0311t, went to club Champion and got fitted since it’s been 5-6 years or a bit more. The new 0311t actually had worse numbers for me then the original 0311t, too high of launch, lower spin (5,600-6,200(shaft dependent)) and much worse dispersion no matter what shaft it was paired with. Any shaft that dropped the launch and peak height to a more normal range gave me even lower spin numbers and worse dispersion. Got the best numbers out of the Srixon ZX7 and Taylor P770. Decided on the ZX7, since it had a slightly lower dispersion. Really went in set to buy another set of PXG 0311t’s, the 0311t version 3 gave me better numbers then the newest 4. The ZX7 just gave me the best dispersion with a nice bump in distance while keeping my spin (close to 7,000 with a 7) and not throwing the ball sky high into the air. But I get that I’m at 91-2mph with a 7 iron, 175 yard carry and a 2.3 handicap so not the average golfer. The look and feel of the new PXG are very nice just didn’t perform well for, the importance of a good fitting.
PXG are clearly the golf industry's most disruptive brand. I love what Mr. Parson and crew has done to the big fellas in the last 6 months. All the big players jacked the prices of their offerings when they saw PXG getting traction at such incredibly high prices. Some irons from the big 4 doubled in sale price without any substantial gains (other than lipstick). Many average golfers were caught up in that squeeze and resented the needless increase in cost. PXG and covid seem to have been good for the golf business. I had some gen 1 0311 and 0811X. I liked them but found the lack of feedback a bit disappointing. I bought blades to improve my ball striking. I fell in love with blades and just kept playing them. I didn't try Gen 2 but I did get a chance to hit Gen 3. I found them too spring face, strong lofted (7 iron carry 187). I just stuck with my blades with incredibly accurate distance and disppersion. I know many golfers that paid full retail on Gen 3 only to discover very deeply discounted PXG clubs have hit the market in the past 6 months. The exclusive feeling of players swinging clubs 3x as pricey as your buddy was lost, seemingly, over night. Now the industry needs to carefully consider how they can sell their gear at much higher prices than PXG's low priced line. I suspect many sleepless nights in the Callaway,Taylormade, Mizuno and Titleist marketing wank departments over this development. They were probably hoping the lower priced PXG line would be crap. I'd like to think this entire plan was the long game cooked up long ago at PXG HQ. From all accounts, the cheaper PXG gear is great gear (I have not hit any of them) so its unlikely the company will suffer the fate of Founders club and Wilson as the once great company destined to Wal-Mart box sets. One thing is certain: it's an interesting time to be a spectator in the world of golf gear! Thanks for the thoughtful video and ensuing discussion to come.
I too like the 0211 irons and would love to try the Gen 4 sometime. A bit out of my price range really. I like the fact that they are engineering and innovativing better products. Yep definitely an fan.
I have the gen 3 xf and they are fantastic Tempted by the gen 4 gear tho i must admit What do you think Andy? Are the gen 4 enough of a step up to upgrade or wait till gen 5 or 6?
Good review. Appreciate the time you took. It would have been nice if you indicated which of the three 7 irons you were hitting when you were hitting one after the other since you indicated the ball flights were different. No way to tell which was which…
Just ordered a set, 5-P, and G wedge in the 0311 xp model via Callaway Pre-owned, with Mitsubishi MMT 60 Graphite shafts. Just under $600.
on the plus side, I've recently bought an 0211 driver at £250 and it's brilliant!!
Once again what seemed to be a brutally honest video. Well Done! I have a Proto driver 2 Gen3 hybrids as well as 52 and 56 degree wedges. I was fitted for all of these and I believe the key to PXG and their success is the fitting process. I have been playing golf for 35 years and I have never hit clubs as well as these PXG's. The feel is amazing and the consistency boggles my mind. In my mind they have become the standard bearer in club fitting.
That first 30 seconds vignette was some of the most stunning video seen on golf YT channels yet. well done!
Thank you Johan

The shafts are 1/2" longer and the lofts are 3 degrees stronger! I'm not very tall and not getting any younger, so I'm not looking for irons with longer shafts and strong lofts. If I upgrade to Gen 4, I'm anxious to take a look at the P model. Still forgiving, but the shaft lengths and lofts remain the same. If I hit them better than my Gen2 XPs, I will put'em in the bag!
How did the P’s work out for you? I’m a bogey golfer as well but I want to get the P’s. I’m upgrading from the Taylormade m4 irons (2018).
PXG will cut the shaft length and adjust the swing weight to your liking. Call customer service.
@@DIRTYCHI3F I have not purchased them yet. Still using my Gen2 XFs
@@robertjames7812 Yes, I know. But the distances are based on the stock shafts and lengths.
I'm seriously considering the Full Bag deal with the Gen 4s since almost all of my clubs are 20+ years old at this point....including the sugar daddy II wedges in the deal make it very attractive. Thanks for these videos.
Same! Make sure you pay the extra 150.00 for the hybrid bag.
Mike did you pull the trigger? Do you like them?
i was on the fence until i did the fitting. i noticed a remakable difference in my shots immediately. they got my ball spin down from 10000 to 7000 and i hit on average 15 yards further per iron. i would 100% reccomend doing the fitting to get a taste for if the clubs are right for you. its only like $65 right now.
Thanks for the feedback. I was wondering if the G4 series were a substantial improvement over the G3. Does not really sound like it. I wanted to add that you do not have any reason to apologize for your PXG reviews. I believe your reviews are honest. I can tell you I would have never gone to PXG if I did not get to hit a used set at the range. From the first strike I felt this was the club for me and by the time I got to the PXG's I had been looking for several weeks hitting the MP20 line, Apex and TM. None of them did for me what the 1st strike with the PXG did. I will also say I got the G3's during the big sale at the end of 2020. They were actually less expensive than any of than the above irons. So, I share your enthusiasm for the PXG brand and I am not a shill. Neither are you! Keep up the good, honest work.
Thanks for the comments John
Funny because I searched for two years for a replacement for my trusty MP-64s (just not good enough to play them anymore). After trying MP-20 HMB and Mavrik Pro for a few months each and not getting along with them, I ended up buying the PXG Gen3 combo set (P 5-6 + T 7-PW). I wish I'd stuck with the P on the 7-iron for a little more forgiveness but overall I feel like I've finally found a set I can play another 5+ years.
Just got fitted for irons, wedges, driver and a 5 wood. I went in to fit the 2021 0211 but hitting a 7 iron 185 yards was a bit much. I ended up with 4-PW gen2 0311 P, 50, 54, 60 forged wedges , the 0211 driver and a 5 wood. The fitting experience was awesome fun and learned a ton about my golf swing, ball flight, etc. I would recommend fittings for everybody. By the way, the gen 2 0311 P was $129 US per club...GREAT price for an awesome iron...I can hardly wait!
Great advice and feedback Mark
PXG has cut prices. Gen2 and Gen3 irons are less expensive than TaylorMade and Callaway.
so they should be
Just fit for the gen4 0311t. They have not came in yet but I do have a comment about the fitting. My fitter was great and the facility was great. They only have 7 irons during the fitting! I play a 3 iron but I couldn’t hit a long iron during the fitting. I may have wanted a blended set with more forgiveness, security in the long iron but i could not try it before I bought it. The gen 4 head weight is outstanding though. Each gram added or subtracted was very noticeable. I’m happy with my purchase but for the amount paid I should be able to test long irons at minimum. I could got to any dicks sporting goods and hit a taped 3 iron. Yet not at the the top notch PXG?
Love the look of the Gen 4 and Gen 3. Not a fan of the 0211. I did try the Gen 3 a year ago and I felt like it wasn't as soft as my Miura's. I'll have to try the Gen 4's when I get a chance. Would love to see what you think of them compared to the feel of a Miura club.
I would agree. I have the Miura CB 301 and love the clubs but I didn't want to change until I found something as soft. I got fitted for the 0311 P Gen 4 yesterday and they're softer than my Miuras and offer greater forgiveness, higher flight, and hate to say it a cheaper than my Miuras.
So I’m still confused on the differences between the three models. Is this correct:
XP = most forgiving and strongest lofted (for high handicappers)
P= medium forgiving and medium lofted (for med handicappers)
T= least forgiving and least lofted (for low handicappers)
You'd have to pry these 0311P gen3's with graphite MMT's out of my cold dead hands. I love these irons and unless the gen4's shaves another 10 strokes off my game, then I'm keeping what I have. Great review by the way.
Had a set of gen 4 about 3 months now, Really pleased with them Fitted with Graphite shafts s need to learn to control the aggression in my swing. If I do the flight and sound is like no other club I have ever had.
i belong to pxg s us veterans program and purchased my 0211 s for $89 a piece. an unbelieveable price for those beautiful clubs. love their stuff.
Yes unreal offer
I enquired through pxg uk for any uk emergency services others. At the time I was told no, this still might/might not be the case as I decided to buy else where.
@@garydeacon2115 i asked the same here in Canada...no luck yet on special pricing for first responders in Canada
Hi, thanks for sharing the P irons and the T irons are standard 37" the XP is 37 1/2 inches length, where all the same at 37" or where the XP the half inch longer?
I live in Arizona, interesting fact theirs a small storm brewing between the golf manufacturers out here.
Between Ping and PXG they’ve been trying to one-up each other for awhile. Now there’s a smaller club maker, making noise with their irons “New Level Golf” check them out!
Hi...loved my Gen 2 SGI irons ....but I then went to Gen 3 XP irons and
was a little disappointed .... then yesterday I was fitted for the GEN 4
P irons and all i can say is WOW i love the feel and the flight of
the ball off these irons....can't wait for golf season.... cheers all
from Canada
PXG undoubtedly are making some fantastic irons. But much like I can't afford an Aston Martin, I can't afford a set of these. However it doesn't stop me from appreciating the design, technology and beauty in both! 😍😍😍
Just wait 2 years!
I am a PXG customer and i love your Raw unbiased thoughts. keep up the good work
Had a fitting today with the intention of getting the gen3 ended up with the gen4 , damn they feel nice , I know everyone says it but I was genuinely 1/2 club longer with the gen4, don’t know why just was. I went wanting the 3’s but my bad shots were so much better with the 4’s
Same
Great information-Awesome video! The GEN 4 Irons look outstanding! I have the GEN 3 but soon I will have the GEN 4s! Thank you for your candid observations of these clubs!
I am really enjoying my PXG-0311XP-G4's Hoepefully, you have been fit. The PXG fitting pro emphasized that the weighting of the irons should be adjusted by a PXG fitter. The woods are easily adjusted with a wrench.
How do they compare to the SGI?
I recall posting a response so many years ago about price (negativeLy so) PXG is a quality product and that they are now priced so competitively means if you are in the market. . . . these must be a consideration . . . you cannot afford to ignore them! Great review!
The Gen 4 are maybe the best feeling irons that aren’t blades I’ve ever hit
You tried the cobra tech forged? New jpx or the p790 and if so imho callaway a apex pros are above all those listed in feel alone. If you tell me with a straight face pxg feels better than that or newest titliest I’d be interested.
Excellent video again! Love the comparison to a premium car, with entry level to high end! I think PXG has really upped their game with the 0211 line and the Gen 4 0311’s!
Have a question for Andy and the audience of this video. I was fitted earlier in the year and ended up with a set of Gen3 P with the steelfiber shafts, 5-P. Interested in getting a slightly longer iron to slot between the 5 iron and my 21* hybrid (old Titleist 816 that I just can't remove from the bag!). Hit the hybrid 200, the 5 iron 180. Thinking about an XP iron with the same shaft. Would the 4 be too long, could the 5 in the XP actually be the better progression? Or should I get the 4 but have it bent slightly weaker? Any other recommendations? Thanks!!
I’m interested in your thoughts on PXG Gen 5 vs Mizuno JPX 921
THanks for the review. You mention that they. are a forged iron. So is the gen 3. I am on the fence between ordering the gen 3 and gen 4. It seems to me that they just took the middle screws and made a single bigger one in the middle. THere is quite a price difference. Do you truly feel the gen 4 is worth the price increase or really just appearance? Thanks.
Everyone’s real question is though, how do these compare to gen 3? Is it a worthwhile upgrade?
I hit both today & gen4 was better for me
I hit both when the Gen4 irons were released, for me not enough of a performance difference between the 3 and 4 and i honestly thought the 3 felt softer.
the 0211 irons are under 99 bucks each now in the USA, seems like a great deal with graphite shafts as well.
I have them in both the 2011 DC (MMT)and also picked up their new 3x forged 0211 XT Elevate 95 ..... they really perform great, feel great, look great, sound great and are priced great! PXG seems to have made a strategic decision to commit to provide tiered offerings but without sacrificing quality. Sure... less tungsten fine tuning in 0211 but hey.... that produces less cost! Their may be a method to their madness --- Their real intellectual property is how they have advanced the elastomer technology to support such a thin forged face while enhancing sound and feel.
@@JohnnyDSR I used to be a 7 handicap and play Hogan Apex Edge irons, I took 6yrs off and now I'm a 13 handicap and feel my irons are a big reason, I want more forgiving irons. Think the 0211 would be decent choice without knowing more about my swing? Those hogan's are 17yrs old.
@@TheTactical6string Hard to say but if you were a 7, and playing Hogans, the 0211ST (3x forged) might suit your taste better than the 2011DC (which is polymer filled). The trick is the shaft selection. I would call PXG and have a pro fitter provide feedback to you. In fact I think they take off some $$ / club if you have the fitter help you and then place the order with him after shaft selection. (Don't hold me to that, but that's what I think I recalled earlier this year.) Good luck... Its always fun trying to get back to a benchmark Handicap!
they are 95 each canadian right now ( 75 US ) in Canada...smoking deal...Gen 4 are 345 each and Gen 3 are 165 each both are in Canadian funds
Ok , well I just received the Gen 4 T irons , and I am very very impressed
I've had every generation of PXG irons. The PXG Gen3 where a phenomenal iron. These are even better. 2mph more ball speed and 6 yards. They feel better than any Mizuno or Miura iron you ever hit in your life too.
Wow, that's a big ask for any iron to be compared to those brands. Seems all too good to be true!
PXG is killing it and now making it in a good price point, Have a fitting scheduled. Would like to get your opinion between this and Mizuno Pro 225 . Your and my game is very similar but me not as good, They look so industrial and still very attractive. You nailed it that you can instantly tell it’s a PXG!
Just purchased (after a PXG fitting session) the 2021 0211’s and they are amazing irons. The price is mind boggling and the performance is outstanding. Great feel and distance and the looks are sexy as hell. Played Callaway before this. I’m a big fan of what PXG is doing.
Good to hear you are happy
I'm a weekend golfer and it's time for new clubs. I'm on the fence with T300, Rogue ST Max, and Gen 4 0311 XP. I really need forgiveness in my irons and age is slowing me down. Can't compare the three together, so can you offer any input on the Gen 4 0311 XP? Love your channel!!!
I’ve been a Ping guy since I was 13. One of the original Ping reps was a mentor of mine back in the late 70’s. Unfortunately I’ve been burned out for the past 10 years. I picked up a PXG iron about a month ago since then I haven’t been this excited to play golf in the past 8 years for me. I’ve had my fitting and now have a full bag of very sexy PXG’s. Love the brand and there story!
I am glad you are so enthusiastic for the game again
Got a set of gen 3 with mmt reg after talking to pxg to discuss my spec. I use 105 modus reg and these graphite were recommended. Didn’t get fitted as lockdown. Unfortunately they were terrible I could miss the green form 100yds left or right long or short and with no feel. So pxg are taking them back and fitting steel I’ve had to pay £210 extra for premium shafts but they are picking them up and delivering them again. Good service I hope these work as I love the look. I was 1 hcp for 28 yrs now 5 so I know what I need. Let’s hope they work. Keep up the good work. John
I hope it works out for you John
Your PXG reviews have been great. I've got an appointment with a fitter tomorrow!
Best of luck!
Just wondering if you think the p irons are game improvement or players distance . Just asking Because if the large offset.
I got given a set of gen 3 P’s. I’m just comparing them to my 2021 P790’s at present. The feel is so much nicer on the PXG’s. My only negative is that the sole is a lot wider than what I like to see in the bag. But like you say if they perform then looks go out the window.
Keep up the good reviews
Thanks Andy for the review. I'm thinking of upgrading from 0311T Gen3 to 0311T Gen4, do you think that is a good move?
Gen 4 is good but the Gen 3 & Gen 5 have a little softer feel to them IMPO. 👍🏼 Always loved the look of the PXG irons. 🇺🇸
No reason they can’t do both. Cast and Forged.
I am currently playing the Gen 3 XP/ P combo set. XP in the longer irons and P in the shorter irons.
Just got a good deal on a used but almost mint 0311P Gen 3's. Based upon many comments and opinions including Andy's. Winter has set in but can't wait to give them a go come spring.😊
Love my 2021 PXG driver just been for an iron fitting, told the pro the funds were unlimited just wanted the best for me. I tried all the new releases and was getting very bored, nothing better than what I had got then as a last resort he gave me .... a Wilson D9 huck me long high, plenty of spin head and shoulders above the rest. They arrived within a week, been to the range tonight and can’t remember ever hitting the ball so well. Don’t be drawn by shiny things.
I am sure the D9's are shiny and new?
@@TheAverageGolfer Don't go pointing out the obvious, Timmy won't understand you.
Anybody know why the ST is only 3X forged whereas the T is the 5X forged? Wondering what the feel differences are between the ST and T, also is the sole narrower on the ST? Really liked the Gen3 T except the sole was too wide for me
I’m a 2 handi and i went from the P to the XP. I agree that the XP is a no brainer. I can fade and draw them and the forgiveness is incredible on off center hits.
I'm a 4 hc trying to decide between P and XP. Concerned about low launch and spin with XPs. How do you like them compared to the Ps?
@@brentturner993 to be honest, I didn’t notice much difference in height or distance. I use project x 6.5 shafts so my ball flight is mid at best with both.
I may try the XP then. Been using the original 0211 and the mid irons with that set are similar in size and offset to the XP. Thanks
Love the intro music... I really appreciate the engineering that has gone into these new irons. Love the fact that you can change the weight and custom tune the irons...The only downside would be the price....I just started to use my new PXG 0811 driver and I'm amazed by the affect changing weights has on the ball. If the weight system in the irons is similar they have a winner on their hands...Love your videos......
Thanks Greg
Hi,Andy I've got a chance to get some gen 3 half the price of gen 4 but in your opinion is there any difference between the two generations?
What aerotech shafts/flex were you playing with in each club? There should have been a lot more of a gap between the xp/p models in the dry data. 3° gap and only 3 yards isn't right. As far as the fitting, the weight will be a big help. They don't swingweight(I've owned 2 sets and had to do it myself) which is strange considering all the weights in the previous 0311 models. At least now they will try which should help with people who like a certain feel in their irons.
Yes its a great introduction to iron fitting
I love what they are doing and the evolution/look... thinking of purchasing a new driver to try them out
Buy the new 0211 driver currently at £205. I did, best driver I've ever had
I have the Gen 3P 4-P and 0211 wedges, and frankly I can’t recall how many iron sets I’ve gone through looking for that “perfect” club. I was fitted by Scott at ADS Golf in San Diego, and we settled on the Aerotech i95 R flex shafts, I have to say that these Gen 3 irons are the best performing irons I’ve ever played. It would be interesting to see a compare between Gen 3 vs Gen4.
Got a fitting next week with PXG....see if anything performs better than my 0211 which have been great. I really like what PXG do different to the masses
Good luck
In regards to irons, PXG is the best in the business. The club engineering alone is superb and the materials are fantastic. I have the Gen2 0311 Ps and love them. I plan on graduating to the Gen 4’s later this year and will have an on-site fitting in Scottsdale.
Thats sound good
I'm a Gen2 users and love them. I really like the idea of being able to test swing weight in a fitting. As soon as the Gen4s come down in price I may have to get a set.
Yes interesting move
249 as of today
@@taylorjaquez gen5s out very soon, they will go alot lower
I always enjoy your reviews and opinion, seem to be spot on. I hope to be able to swing a club and hit golf ball as well as you do one day. Cheers
I love the look of the Gen 4 irons. That said, I'm buying a set of 4-PW 0311T Gen 3 because the price (U.S.) is now $833!
That spot on the right side of the lens has been driving me nuts for the last 4 vids...
Thanks for pointing that out now I can’t stop looking at it.
@@mikeh7203 sorry man. But i had to bring it up. Not sure how they havent noticed it...
Not a fan of PXG but the 211 ST irons do look nice. Hope you test a set soon
I don't think I could find a fault with the performance of the Gen4 irons but the price is ridiculous. Can get the best of other brands for half the price. That's the fault. They are not that good.
How do either the gen 3 or 4 stack up to titliest T100? Never even thought about these over priced irons but I’m drawn more and more to them. (I’m a low handicapped middle faces irons) played ap2 since 2013. Anyone can answer how do these irons stack up to say p790s or callaway apex pros? Or titliest T100s? These are players irons I have hit many of times just curious of anyone’s thoughts .
I’m sure they are very good but are they really worth more than twice the cost of the Mizuno JPX line?
Are you going to try the 0211 ST irons? The blade ones? I love the analogy of entry level Porsche and top end like PXG are doing. 👍
If I can get hold of them I will but no option as yet
@@TheAverageGolfer they are the best feeling clubs I’ve hit in a long time. Always a good debate, blades or not. I think most players benefit from blades. Tighter dispersion on well struck shots, less chance of flyer etc
How do they compare to the Mizuno HMB's ?
Would be curious to see a comparison between the 0211 and Gen 4.
We will do that
I went yesterday for a fitting trying to see if the 0211 was what I wanted. After hitting the 0211st and the Gen4 I was blown away with the forgiveness of the Gen4. The 0211 felt great but if slightly off center there were huge drop offs in distance. But to be fair I didn't try the bigger 0211, just the 0211st ( more blade style)
PXG biggest issue has always been cost - I am starting to see that drop though below the other main manufacturers of golf equipment so for the first time I can realistically look at PXG clubs whereas before I could not afford them.
what kind of shaft did you use? It looks like steelfiber. I just wonder what is the weight.
Pxg 0311t WEIGHT Adjusting, when I was fitted for myself the heavier the weight the higher the launch and peak height, the lower the weight the more normal the height and peak height but too low of spin numbers and too high of dispersion. Unfortunately Club Champion fitter said the new 0311t was not a good match, my 6 plus year old original 0311t gave me better numbers with its D4 swing weight.
Great job ty,, myself iam gaming the apex,19s which I love and my brother games the Gen 3 line PXG at the range I took a few swings with his clubs and there no comparison with feel and sound Gen 3 is the winner hands down,, just picked up.apex DCB 6,5 irons not sure I made right decision but gonna roll with it!! I personally think PXG is the best feeling Iron out on the Market period!!! Thanks again !!
PXG expanding its target market is brilliant. More and more is being written about the average LPGA golfer and how their talents come closer to the better than average golfer male or female. PXG is very popular on the LPGA and for good reason. Performance, feel sound and forgiveness.... lower pricing and expand the market using there "Generation" branding model. Drop pricing on past Generations and keep making them! Smart !
Great review as usual from someone who actually uses PXG . What golf shoes are you wearing?
Getting my PXG fitting Monday!! Can't wait!!.
how did the fitting go ? what did you go with...cheers from Canada
@@GOLFADDICT65 fitting went well, done at Modern Golf in Vaughn with an authorized PXG fitter. I went with the Gen 2 0311 XF with graphite shafts, 1 deg flat.
Another great review, Andy is there a significant difference between the irons to upgrade. I currently have the 0211 and was considering moving up to gen3 at $189 per club. Knowing gen4 is $249 ,I'm wondering if there is a significant difference to move up to gen4. Any thoughts would be appreciated
They look great better then the older versions but do they scratch as much as before, after a while they look really battered
thanks for the review😀👍
I had a chance to try them, they feel smashing! But I just cannot afford the 0311. And in Germany it is still hard to even get the 0211 -- no fitters here that have them. Maybe in Bavaria, but not where I live.
get fit, have the fitter print out all the spec's, then read from that paper when ordering direct online, which is what I plan to do, as I am a retiree from the US military and therefore can claim PXG's "Heroes" discount
@@leonamer4597 Hm, if there is not fitter around, how can I get fit? And I ain't got no heroes account and might need to use yours :-)
How did the T and P feel?
They brought out the ST (blade) in the Gen 3 and I love a blade for 8/9/PW so it's not too hot off the face and I'm worried the T or P will be too hot.
A few of the Tour Pros use the P model which I would never have guessed (I would've thought they would've used the T or ST but no they aren't).
I was so surprised at how forgiving the T model was, I would have happily played them
@@TheAverageGolfer Did the T feel too hot?
@The Average Golfer This is the 3rd time I've watched this. In your opinion, is it worth an additional $1000 to get the Gen 4s, or can I save $1000 and keep with the Gen 3s I just ordered? That is how much additional it would cost me to order the Gen 4s. My Gen 3s arrive tomorrow, so I'm in the 30 day window. It would cost me an additional 15% to send back, so the Gen 4s would now cost me about $1200. So, is there enough tech and difference between the Gen 3s and 4s to justify paying the extra price? Or should I stay with the Gen 3s and be happy?
i have same issue but have not ordered yet...trying to decide between the Gen 4 or the Gen 3...... what did you end up doing and are you happy with your decision ...cheers from Canada
@@GOLFADDICT65 went with Gen 3 P. Loved the accuracy. Hated the distance loss. I lost 20 yards per club. PXG opened a shop here in Dallas. I went there 2 times trying to find those yards. Ended up giving up. I just went back to Callaway. Got the Apex 21s. Gained 15 yards back and shot a 76 my first ground with them last Friday.
Hi are these irons any good for a guy at 74 years old playing from 13? thanks.
I absolutely love my 0211’s - only played with them twice so far but they are brilliant. I think PXG are shaking up the market but they need to be a bit careful not to upset their customers with erratic pricing.
Good point
Beauty is the eye of the beholder. Personally, these pxg’s may be a great club, but don’t appeal to me. Saw that a few comments mentioned the sub70 irons; this company offers some very nice choices & I play a set of their 699 pro irons, being very satisfied with their feel/distance/accuracy. Even w/graphite shafts, made to my specs, were under $650, including shipping, here on our side of the pond. You should give these a review; it would be interesting to hear you comments, as I believe that you provide a nice honest take, on what you review...
I would certainly try them Bill if I could get my hands on them
At £305 a club are the gen4 really worth it.. The gen3 clubs are down to £165 a club now on their website
What is the shaft? Thanks!
Hi Andy, cool content as always. Thumbs up! What kind of shoes do you wear in this video? Could you just tell me the exact model? Thx & cheers from Hamburg Germany
Nice review yet again Andy. Off topic, what type of Nike golf shoes are you wearing? I see @ 22 seconds it says gore tex on them. I am just curious. Cheers
i am a bit late on the pxg band wagon but have been let down by callaway yet again seriously considering gen 4 xp whwer would i go to get a fitting near me i am in hampshire
Best to email lpawley@pxg.com who will look after you and give you some options 👍
What shafts are you using
Great analysis Andy! I got the new 0211 and they are not failing me one bit.
Hope you get to review the new hybrids and do a comp against the 0211 hybrids.
Pleased for you Brent
mmmm still not sure what to do....i Live in Canada trying to decide between the Gen 4 and the Gen 3 irons ( Gen 4 currently are 345 per club Canadian...Gen 3 are 165 Canadian ) my question is do you think the Gen 4 are worth the increase compared to the Gen 3......I currently have Gen 2 SGI irons and love them but i wanna upgrade....value anyones view on this...thx and cheers from Canada
My opinion is the GEN03 are incredible value and not sure you would recognise much diff between them and GEN04 👍 either way great irons in your bag!

10 day delivery promise, got my gen4 0311p,s graphite shafts in 2 days , best clubs out there by a mile.
Currently play the original 0311t, went to club Champion and got fitted since it’s been 5-6 years or a bit more. The new 0311t actually had worse numbers for me then the original 0311t, too high of launch, lower spin (5,600-6,200(shaft dependent)) and much worse dispersion no matter what shaft it was paired with. Any shaft that dropped the launch and peak height to a more normal range gave me even lower spin numbers and worse dispersion. Got the best numbers out of the Srixon ZX7 and Taylor P770. Decided on the ZX7, since it had a slightly lower dispersion. Really went in set to buy another set of PXG 0311t’s, the 0311t version 3 gave me better numbers then the newest 4. The ZX7 just gave me the best dispersion with a nice bump in distance while keeping my spin (close to 7,000 with a 7) and not throwing the ball sky high into the air. But I get that I’m at 91-2mph with a 7 iron, 175 yard carry and a 2.3 handicap so not the average golfer. The look and feel of the new PXG are very nice just didn’t perform well for, the importance of a good fitting.
Good review. Think some of your lenses need a clean small dark spots spoiling a good video especially showing up on the blue sky
Your spot on
I do not like the look of the big weight on these, love PXG's but i think the older models are more appealing to the eye. Great Video!
PXG are clearly the golf industry's most disruptive brand. I love what Mr. Parson and crew has done to the big fellas in the last 6 months.
All the big players jacked the prices of their offerings when they saw PXG getting traction at such incredibly high prices. Some irons from the big 4 doubled in sale price without any substantial gains (other than lipstick). Many average golfers were caught up in that squeeze and resented the needless increase in cost. PXG and covid seem to have been good for the golf business.
I had some gen 1 0311 and 0811X. I liked them but found the lack of feedback a bit disappointing. I bought blades to improve my ball striking. I fell in love with blades and just kept playing them. I didn't try Gen 2 but I did get a chance to hit Gen 3. I found them too spring face, strong lofted (7 iron carry 187). I just stuck with my blades with incredibly accurate distance and disppersion.
I know many golfers that paid full retail on Gen 3 only to discover very deeply discounted PXG clubs have hit the market in the past 6 months. The exclusive feeling of players swinging clubs 3x as pricey as your buddy was lost, seemingly, over night.
Now the industry needs to carefully consider how they can sell their gear at much higher prices than PXG's low priced line. I suspect many sleepless nights in the Callaway,Taylormade, Mizuno and Titleist marketing wank departments over this development. They were probably hoping the lower priced PXG line would be crap.
I'd like to think this entire plan was the long game cooked up long ago at PXG HQ.
From all accounts, the cheaper PXG gear is great gear (I have not hit any of them) so its unlikely the company will suffer the fate of Founders club and Wilson as the once great company destined to Wal-Mart box sets. One thing is certain: it's an interesting time to be a spectator in the world of golf gear! Thanks for the thoughtful video and ensuing discussion to come.
I have the gen1 when they first came out and the 0211’s... I can’t see myself hitting Anything else but pxg... 0211 ST or Gen3 are next
I too like the 0211 irons and would love to try the Gen 4 sometime. A bit out of my price range really.
I like the fact that they are engineering and innovativing better products.
Yep definitely an fan.
Agreed
I have the gen 3 xf and they are fantastic
Tempted by the gen 4 gear tho i must admit
What do you think Andy?
Are the gen 4 enough of a step up to upgrade or wait till gen 5 or 6?
I would say you have perfectly good irons Ben
Where exactly are you golfing?That view is absolutely spectacular!!!!!
North Wales Bob, I live here, lots of castles ......
@@sjld88 looks like a beautiful place and golf too!!!
Good review. Appreciate the time you took. It would have been nice if you indicated which of the three 7 irons you were hitting when you were hitting one after the other since you indicated the ball flights were different. No way to tell which was which…
Since he said the distance was loft related, the XP would be the first with the P and then the T.
@@robertjames7812 I may have missed it. I’ll go back and review again. Appreciate the note.
Just got fit for the 0311P Gen4's. 6 clubs for $1700. Damn they felt nice, but when they are $300 more than p790's, Hard to rationalize
