PXG has always been the unconventional trailblazer in the golf industry. Whether it's their innovative product cycles or their distinctive approach to golf club design, PXG has consistently carved out a niche in a market that was increasingly becoming homogenized. Today, we delve into the latest addition to their lineup, the PXG 0317 T irons, which combine cutting-edge technology with a commitment to customization and precision.
Breaking Tradition
The PXG 0317 T irons mark a departure from tradition by being the first hollow-body iron introduced into the 0317 line. (Fun fact: 0317 is the Military Occupational Specialty number for a scout sniper, reflecting PXG's dedication to precision in their player's iron line.) In the past, smaller hollow-body irons were part of the more game-improvement-focused 0311 line. However, with the Gen6 series and the popularity of the 0317 ST and CB irons, PXG has redefined the landscape by consolidating these irons into the better player-focused line.
Crafting Your Dream Set
When you invest in PXG 0317 irons, it's more than just buying golf clubs; it's about crafting your own set tailored to your game. These irons offer a unique level of customization, allowing you to mix and match them with other PXG models, from hollow body to short iron blades.
PXG's Approach to Design
PXG has always employed a meticulous approach to designing iron sets, and their decision to separate players' irons from game-improvement clubs simplifies the decision-making process for consumers and fitters alike.
A Familiar Yet Distinct Look
The PXG 0317 T iron embodies the characteristics of a players' iron with its smaller head shape and thinner toplines. Despite this traditional appearance, it boasts an enhanced MOI, providing an additional 11% compared to the CB and 14% over the ST blade. The super-thin maraging steel face and injected hollow core contribute to increased ball speed.
Precision Manufacturing
PXG takes precision to the next level with the 3X forged and milled body and a robotic polishing process. This attention to detail ensures that each head meets exact weight specifications, guaranteeing consistency from the manufacturing floor to the golf course.
Customization at Its Core
Customization is at the heart of PXG, and they don't limit themselves to gender or age categories. PXG clubs are designed to fit any golfer, and this includes the PXG 0317 T irons. A key element of the customization process is the centrally located back weight, which allows for easy adjustments to the clubhead weight, accommodating various swing preferences and lengths.
Cutting-Edge Technology
The PXG 0317 T irons incorporate several key technologies that elevate performance. A thin maraging steel face reallocates weight to improve forgiveness. An internal tungsten weight in the toe enhances forgiveness on off-center hits. The S Cor material fine-tunes vibrations and frequencies, delivering the signature soft PXG feel. This choice of S Cor over X Cor2, found in Gen6 irons, results in a lower initial launch angle with slightly higher spin rate performance, enhancing control for skilled players.
Conclusion
The PXG 0317 T irons represent PXG's commitment to pushing boundaries in the golf industry. With their innovative design, precision customization, and advanced technology, these irons cater to highly skilled golfers who demand both workability and forgiveness. When you choose PXG, you're not just buying golf clubs; you're investing in a unique golfing experience tailored to your game.
