I’m here to eat crow

They should be atop everyone’s options.


Personally, I wish they’d focus more on availability for testing and less on their marketing/pricing structure.

Price your shite comparable with other OEMs and make it easier to find/test

I don't buy that when they have more PGA Tour presence than ever. And a huge presence of the Korn Ferry.

Knapp won and a guy on the Korn Ferry shot a 57 with them.

Scanning GolfWrx, I see pxg irons in tour mixed bags quite often.

You don’t have to buy it. TrackMan and tour pros made it known. Howell had his best “ball striking” rounds and won weeks after a switch. He talked about distance control. The better the ball striker the worse the irons are for them. Korn ferry guys aren’t Pgatour caliber ball strikers. They miss 5mm compared to 2.

Looking at their site, they have 9 staffers who hold a Pgatour card with points good enough to play each week. That’s down from 14 in 2021.

And yet PGATour numbers are down. The better strikers.

Look man you like them. That’s great. They are great clubs. Just not for the best of the best.

It’s 100% not money. Almost all of them have the same contract. X per event teed up. X per win. I can sign with pxg tom and have close to the same contract I have with Callaway playing wise. But they give me more benefits being a club pro.

I'm not saying that they are the end all of golf clubs, I only said that I find it silly that people won't try them because of Parsons commercials.

My issue isn’t the commercials, but the devaluing the sticks the way they have in the past.

Also, I’m not trying to go pro, and I don’t think that’s a good metric to use to determine club performance. Wilson makes a good club as does Cobra and they don’t have many guys “on the tour.”

Different strokes for different folks, I suppose. Anyway, great feeling clubs that perform for me

I was in the same boat. Never really gave PXG much thought until I saw a print add with a full bag special. Went for a fitting and was blown away at how great they felt. The driver and three wood were not that good and I sold them after one round. I've had my irons for two years now and love them. I do occasionally get a shot maybe once every two rounds where the ball just mysteriously goes twenty yards further than it should. I'm a 3 handicap and when my normal nine iron that should go about 155-160 yards goes 185-190, it freaks me out a little. And that's not a flyer lie out of the rough, that's off a tight fairway.

Personally, I love my pxgs but I am a feel player and no iron feels as good as them even on mishits.

But I do believe pros may have an issue w them regarding distance control.

I also have the out of the blue blasted shot that goes 15-20 yds further than it should. Those shots are always with solid contact, but I hit other shots solid and they don’t fly like that.

It always seems to be on an approach shot too and it can be fairly costly. I could imagine a tour player not being able to have confidence in precise distances.

anybody on this forum talking about PXG clubs are not the best of the best. so Im sure PXG clubs would fit anybody's game on here. everybody has their own opinions about club manufacturers. I have a golfing buddy that had Calloway Driver and woods in his bag, loves them but say's that he hates their irons. he has Taylormade irons and a cobra putter. to each his own I guess.
