    I’ve had a similar experience with their irons ballooning. But I’m attributing that to the tour lite shaft I ordered them with.

    I have the 0211 PXG irons & I just had to correct all of the swing weights, thru the set they were 3.5 swing weight points off, some were D4 & varied all the way to D7.5. I'm checking the lie angles next.

    Had the exact same problem with Callaway. I found out my irons were 1inch longer than standard length than they should have been. 🤨 Went to see Adam at Elite Golf in Duluth, GA and he did a fantastic job getting my clubs the right length. He even said that this problem happens more than you would think.

    Interesting, I do always measure the shaft length as it’s really key to getting a good strike. My PXG irons and wedges were ok however I did have a problem with a couple of the grips not on straight!

    About 10 years ago, when I worked for a Top 100 rated cusyom clubmaker, a customer brought in a TaylorMade set that had inconsistent lengths like your set. I couldn't believe it. It was no wonder the guy was having trouble with his club shot length gapping. That was the only one I have see like that. I first thought I had mis-measured them so I double checked.

Ordered the 2 degree’s weak all of them were random 1 weak 2 weak 1 strong stock etc. I don’t know for the price i paid i think they should have better quality control.

I spent too much sending them back and getting stuck with their restocking fee. The product is good but maybe not the QC. Attention to detail.

    I've seen that swing weight is a big problem for manufacturers. If you get graphite, don't even try to get standard length because they will swing weight too light. I like a heavier swing weight so I'm at 39" 5 iron.

    Whats absolutely amazing is it would cost them LESS money to reshaft clubs, than it would be to just have you return your whole order to them.

      That's what I thought too. And, fyi, there is no "standard" in the golf club industry, far as length and loft go, and it can and always has varied between manufactureres. "Standard" is just a word.nothing more. However, we all must applaud PGX for their awesome marketing, right??? For women it's shoes, for men it's tools...and golf clubs are nothing but tools.

    PXG's QC department needs some serious QC.

Not with the shafts, but the loft and lie angles were way off. As a veteran, I would expect Mr. Parsons to do a better job.

    Its too much to put all that on PXG. ESPECIALLY if you’re still gonna buy their gear. Always double check your club data. As a note: “standard” length, loft, lie… varies from maker to maker (Mizuno != Titleist). Always double check your sticks. Golf is hard enough without ill-fitted/incorrectly built clubs making it harder.

      Sorry but I disagree. Ordering premium clubs only to have them way out of spec is frustrating. Then to have to send them back and wait for their mistakes to be corrected is absurd. PXG like all companies needs to be held accountable. They need to improve their processes. There are a lot of stories on here that support his claim and what I am explaining. Fandom doesn’t put them out of the real of responsibility. I’m now done with PXG from the poorly assembled clubs to the indignant sales people you are stuck with when there is an issue. It wasn’t my fault they didn’t do their job. It wasn’t this reviewers or anyone else that had a bad time with PXG. They’ll either get right or go away. There are others manufacturers that have had problems. Mine Titleist. Resolution being very different. They made my replacements to my spec same day and next day aired them to me and paid for the return of the wrong ones. That’s the standard you want. That’s the standard you deserve. Don’t accept bs.

    I’m not sure how any experienced golfer can think that ‘standard length’ means something in the current market. (Generally speaking, every manufacturer creates standard length and lie specs for their clubs to maximize performance for the majority of golfers that buy their clubs off the shelf… and they vary by manufacturer… presumably everyone knows that.)
    How far are you from a clubfitting professional? You have a golf UA-cam channel, but you’ve never spoken to a clubfitter before 2nd Swing? Have you never even researched clubfitting online? If length, lie, and swingweight really were ‘all over the place’ then you should have documented that more specifically. We didn’t get measurements, lofts, or swing-weights on every club in this video, we just heard the ‘opinion’ of 2nd Swing’s tech about what might be going on. Whatever!?!
