Not that great of numbers. Descent angle through peak height does not result in the greatest performance compared to descant angle with spin. The longer the ball is in the air means the more impact wind has on the flight. These are just P790s with some weights. Mid.
Went to my local PXG shop, got fitted and purchased the Gen 6 irons and Driver. Best irons and Driver than I ever owned and I have been playing for over 30 years. Fantastic job PXG, but you must get fitted to enjoy the benefits of the swing weight optimization and shaft choices.
I have 2023 Titleist T200 irons, but I am always tinkering and looking for the best clubs for me. I recently tested and purchased the PXG 0311 XF driver based on your review, and I love the feel, forgiveness, and distance. I decided to give the 0311P Gen6 irons a test. The look, sound, feel, and forgiveness are outstanding. They feel soft and explosive at the same time. My T200s are fitted with the Project X 6.0 shaft at a D3 swing weight, which makes it difficult for me to feel where the head is during the swing. The 0311P irons are fitted with the Dynamic Gold 105S and a 12-gram weight in the head to give me the same D3 swing weight, but now I can feel the location of the head throughout the swing. I was custom fit for both sets of irons, but PXG Detroit did a great job.
I hit these irons a few weeks ago. They’re incredible. I was shocked with how easy they are to hit and how soft they were, and I’m not a good iron player, easily had my best iron day in the fitting bay with these.
Bought my son the Gen 3 irons last year, as they were really well priced. We played two rounds during spring break, while getting away from the Canadian winter. I had to share his clubs. Unbelievable feeling irons. Also, no “jumpers”, just really consistent. If you have never tried PXG irons, I think you should
I just got a deal on gen 3 heads and paired them with my shaft of choice. Great irons! Feel really good,and good feedback. Only downside is trying to swing weight them if you have to. With the little screws are hard to find.
I have a new set of the 0211 Xcor irons, and they are great! Saw Busta Jack got fitted for the 0317's and played quite well with them down in AZ. As a veteran, I appreciate Bob Parson's lover for fellow vets. Great company, great products.
I've never understood the draw of PXG before, but this is the first video where I've felt they were worth trying - especially if they're not priced over the top companies anymore.
Played 5 rounds already w my new G6’s and to me these are the very best irons I’ve ever had in the bag. Hands down. What I appreciate are not getting punished on slight mishits. I’m not losing terrible distance as I used to when I played solid metal blades. The difference between G5 & G6 is a pillow fight Tremendous and accurate review here. Very well done. 🤣
I just fit into Gen 6 P with i110 Steelfiber Private Reserve S flex. Absolutely unreal irons. I tested out Mizuno 923 Tour and Forged but couldn’t resist the results I got with Gen 6.
I completely understand how the advertisement turns people off to the brand. You got to give these a try. You'd be doing yourself a complete disservice on a great set of irons.
You guys are the most reliable reviewer currently imo and it seems like nobody talks about the Honma TR21X enough especially when comparing them with the P790 or the MP225. I'd be very thankful if you can make one.
I have a set of the gen 2 0311 XF, I now play blades but 100%, these irons helped me improve dramatically. Only reason for the change was yardage gaps.
Been sayin that very soon GI types of clubs are getting so good now that they will be used by pros and top players if they would make them in very low offset... in mid-long irons
Got a set of these a few months back. I’ve got to say they are very nice. Lovely soft feel. Not really experienced any “jumpers” either. My only concern is I think they’ll mark up bad in a bag
I enjoyed hitting this in a recent fit at Club Champion. Felt great but I’m a pretty high-spin iron player and these spun up too high. We ended up with T100s and added the loft back up 2°.
I had a prior Generation set of irons and was not totally happy with the quality, a simple thing but 4 Ferrules came loose and a 5th a little loose. Shafts were Aerotech. I seem to remember reading that they use a Ferrule and a shim to fit different shaft bores. Not sure if that technically correct but here is the place where someone will know. It was a simple thing but a pain. Will try these though, I usually prefer plan forged clubs and dislike the stick on decors, but with these it's actual screws and bars with a logo, they look and sound good.
Yes. My gen 3s needed that shim ferrule. That’s the only thing builders complained about other than swing weighting them. Pxg former gens are known to not be the best qc with hosel size.
Hi Guys!! Please do the obvious test of the Taylormade P 790 vs PXG Gen 6 both at there standard lofts. PW, 7 and 4 iron!! At least the PW and 7 iron. Thanks!
Got fit for Gen6 0311P irons and while they sound good, feel good, and are easy to hit overall, I find they can be jumpy or hot on the odd shot (say one in five). E.g. I hit a 7 iron flush and it went 180ish where normal 7 is 165. Anyone else experiencing this?
I as well experience this and it’s my only complaint I have with my GEN3’s. 2 days ago I had a 194 yard Par 3. About a 5-6mpg wind behind me. Went with my 7 iron that I usually hit 175. Landed a yard from the hole and flew off the green. But feel wise, I don’t think I’ve hit anything better feeling then PXG. I’ve been to PGA store several times and try out all the new releases. Just to see if there’s anything worth upgrading to. And I just can’t justify spending money on a new set when my PXG’s perform so well. Just the occasional flyer is my one and only complaint.
missing the center of the face by 4 or 5mm isn't exactly the same as "clunking one in the heel or toe". Matty's misses are the best strikes ever for the person these clubs are designed for.
I got fitted today for Gen 6 0311XP. I have been playing 6 months. Love these clubs. Seems like I should follow due diligence and try other clubs BUT from what I understand the only way to adjust all the other game improvement irons (e.g., i525, T350, P790) is for lie only? On the other hand…with the tuning ability of the PXG iron other irons can’t keep up as I grow as a golfer? Thoughts?
My only concern would be gapping. 190 carry with the 7 and then 220 with 4. Would question that a 6 and 5 would be sufficient at 15 yard gaps after the 7?
They had them 2 degrees weak in loft so adjusting lofts in the long irons down closer to standard would probably take care of that. But typically in long irons you're more concerned with total distance gapping being 15 yards not necessarily carry distance because you get so much more roll out as lofts get lower
@Nyasha33 Sure and do you think the 8 is 180, 9 170, PW 160....leaves you with big gaps at the bottom of the bag. It's better to have some larger gaps at the top, just grip down an inch on a 5 or 6 to take 6/7 yards off. That's the last thing you want to be doing with all your short irons.
What’s the biggest difference between the P Gen 5s and 6s? I game the black label elites in the 5s and lovethem. So besides the look what the difference being you have hit both. ⛳️
I am temped to get fitted for these. I've got the Gen 4 P's and I think I'm catching a few random jumpers. Anyone else experience that with the Gen 4s?
Yeah I was sold how forgiveness all over that face. It's a no Brainer. They couldn't fit me for Drivers. I'm more of a mini driver guy. Any chance how I can hit driver further than my 2wood. 2 wood was going carry 235carrt 240 base roll 255 But my driver was lower. Or do I accept the fact I can't game a driver I still play to a scratch game. With no driver😢
PXG just recently payed off 125 employees. I was their biggest fan until they started discounting their sets near half right after you pay top dollar. Just DON’T buy new and full price and wait a month or two until the discounts start and you won’t get pissed like me
They seem to do the discount as they are ready to release a new model. I recently bought the Gen 5 irons for that reason, even though the Gen 6 were available ($159 per club vs. $219). Love them so far...
@@MrAhuraMazda PXG created the image they are now trying to shed so I don’t feel bad for them. Also according to a Club Champion I got their Black Jack putter last year, they sometimes adjust their pricing multiple times a week. He said that from one day to the next you can never be sure what something will cost. If that’s true still that’s mad.
Your going on about a premium club and distance experience however your pitching wedge is going 146 then suddenly is going 196? 50 years further. There's no on screen or verbal indication you've changed clubs so I can only assume you've got 50 yards of dispersion in a pitching wedge. Not good.
You and others have had issues with Taylormade iron faces cracking, that's why they removed the face slots a few years ago. Obviously the PXG tech is supper to Tailor-made's tech because their faces don't crack. 😄
Looks okay, everyone has their opinion, but the face don’t crack because of the propitiatory insert that PXG uses which makes it as good as it is without cracking, you should give it a try. And it’s been tested by long drivers and in cold conditions with range balls and anything you can think of, so there no reason to “not stand PXG”
It looks like these may be your best numbers ever with irons , PXG has really delivered with this edition. Can't wait to see you outside with them.
Not that great of numbers. Descent angle through peak height does not result in the greatest performance compared to descant angle with spin. The longer the ball is in the air means the more impact wind has on the flight. These are just P790s with some weights. Mid.

Such an underrated and hated on brand. I love their irons and wedges.
I tested the gen6 0311P today. I was absolutely blown away at the forgiveness on Mishits. It’s a game changer in a player distance iron.
Good luck getting me to drop my gen 3 0311p. Absolutely love them.

I completely understand how the advertisement turns people off to the brand. You got to give these a try. You'd be doing yourself a complete disservice on a great set of irons.

I just played my first round with these new 0311p Gen 6 Irons and I wish I would’ve gotten them sooner. For my swing it was incredible
I have a set of the gen 2 0311 XF, I now play blades but 100%, these irons helped me improve dramatically. Only reason for the change was yardage gaps.
Been sayin that very soon GI types of clubs are getting so good now that they will be used by pros and top players if they would make them in very low offset... in mid-long irons
LPGA pros already are using them
Played 0311T Gen2 for 3 years now and love them. Great irons. Look forward to the potential T model
The 0317 CB is replacing the T model. This is it for the hollow body irons.
I am getting fit next month in Orlando, cant wait. ❤

Why didnt you choose the normal T100?
Fitter obviously didn't know how to fit you with the PXG. Spin can be changed with loft and shaft.
They sound really good. May try these this year....
Love those irons. They look so good.
PXG is the only brand I'm shopping in 2023
If I hit any 4 iron like that it would be in my bag right now!
Snell is advertising an upgrade with their premium ball for 2023. Looking forward to the ball test.

Hi Guys!! Please do the obvious test of the Taylormade P 790 vs PXG
Gen 6 both at there standard lofts. PW, 7 and 4 iron!! At least the PW and 7 iron. Thanks!
So seeing all the numbers and how well these irons performed. Will these be the irons of choice or something else? Just curious

Love PXG but the first couple gen equipment were the best. Lower price point lower quality.
Comparing overall performance and forgiveness. Which is better between PXG Gen 6 0311 P or Mizuno Pro 225 or P790. Thanks!!

thoughts on gen 5 vs gen 6 ? gen 5 is much more in my price range as it stands :s
interesting how the spin is so close between the 7 and 4, would that cause any issues with gapping?
More forgiving on miss hits? Mizuno Pro 225 vs PXG Gen 6 0311 P?

How can u hate on this performance?!
Anyone have any info on how these compare to the Gen 5s?
Word is that they are going to discontinue the 0211 line.
Love my 0211s
I’d love to know how many clubs come back to PXG with cracked faces… I cracked the face of my Callaway 2021 Apex Pro 7 iron after 35 hits or so. 😮
Never heard of one instance.
Why would you hit anything else????
Wait a sec? These are hollow body irons?
