Any takes on these? Demo'd a 0341 w some magical shaft and it was awesome. I forget the sciency stats but I was 230ish carry and a baby fade. And it was only $250. And I can get it (my wife can get it) by Christmas.

Too good to be true?

I just hit 3 woods on trackman 2 days ago and with swingspeed in low 100s I was carrying it about 234 yards in the air

The monitor was 4 or 5' away from my right toe somewhere along the target line about 231 yards away from where the ball landed on the range.

What shaft?

I have the 0811 XF Gen 4 Driver and love it, the shaft is a Evenflow 60 g stiff CB.

My swing instructor says I need a 70 g shaft on my fairway woods (have 60 g shafts on callaway mavrik woods) and have considered ordering these woods (3 & 5).

It was the evenflow, the blue one w the cloudy graphics? I can't remember if it was 60 or 70 gram, I think 60 bc i liked the heavier feel - he said the lighter shaft does that bc you feel the Club head weight more? I didn't leave w the specs bc he sent them to the pro shop so my wife can pay for it

And yes, they had a tech thing that the guy was checking science on. I just saw the ball go far and pretty much where I aimed

I'm gonna go ahead and have some fun too...
The more I think about this, the more im thinking you may not know as much as you think you might do.

Why?

That you find a launch monitor in an outdoor setting novel.

I asked you where the monitor was....meaning what business not where in relation to your feet

Outdoor trackman is prob the best way possible to get fit

I've hit thousands of golf balls on trackman outside....I certainly don't think it's new

My bad- I was getting post merge... I saw the "I can set up a trackman hot and hit it 300 too", the outside trackman winky face, concurrently got distracted w the dog eating my shoe and misfired thinking Reddit was happening. Sorry pal!

No worries

The root of my question comes from quality of the monitor and the trust u have in who is running it.

You can put multiple settings into a launch monitor for it to show jacked up numbers. Elevation, temp, wind, ball type can all be changed

I've hit 6 irons that carry over 200 yards on a monitor in PGA SS.....its not physically possible for me to do that so just try to verify off of more than one monitor if it's possible.

You know what your swing speed was? Swing speed can't be changed on the monitor and you can guess decently close on optimum possible distance based on swing speed

I wanna say mid high 90s; I'll check this afternoon. The exchange at the range was kind of informal. Pxg guy was demo'ing, I was w my 8yr old, I asked the guy if I could noodle around between his appointments on a 15' 3w. So he set me up w this one, we went through a few shafts a few times w him on his iPad and we picked the one that was carrying the 225 flag- while negotiating more time before hot dogs w my kid. It wasn't the most engaged session, but I need to replace my 12 year old Adam's speed line, and at 250 was a no brainer.

I'm mostly curious if they've got a reputation for crap durability or anything like that... seems odd that the drivers and woods are half the price of an iron. Unless the margins are so high they do these as a loss leader to get you a taste of the goods. And then you come back for the 4k set of irons...

I don't know much about timeliness on pxg but they might be coming out with new models soon. 250 for new 3 wood is pretty good price

It's most likely much better than ur 12 year old 3 wood just based on forgiveness alone. If 250 isnt much for u then get it!

Pxg quality is just fine

I will say 230-235 carry with 97 mph swing speed is a tough combo

3 woods are hard as hell to fit...you can have it set up for off the tee or into greens

Launch angle, swing speed, spin rate, peak height, and decent angle are what u should be comparing if you really want to know if it's worth it or if there is another one that's better

It's 100% going to be more forgiving...its probably longer too

Actually, high 90s with 3 wood and ball speed around 140mph should carry 220-230 yards at sea level.
Aggie369
How long do you want to ignore this user?
Yeah I'm thinking 225 max but I don't know average smash factor for him either

But this is just me trying to remember all the optimizations for a 3 wood off the top of my head

I was like 102 and carrying it 234

5 mph slower I think would cost you almost 15 yards

But there is a lot more than that....that's why I would recommend hitting it again on another monitor

Stenson is the man. He's like a swedish terminator. Its always bittersweet to see him and person and realize he's my size.

Pulling this back up. The PXG 0211 driver is now $189.
Any experience with this driver? Price is ridiculous unless it sux.

Any suggestions on best shaft (stiff)? Not going to be able to get fitted…

Aldila, Project X, Mitsubishi, UST, Fujikura , graphite design

I doubled down and went with the new 811X Driver w the Tensei orange upgrade. It was 450 all in. And it is a rocket launcher. These woods are terribly underappreciated.

I have a 811X Driver sitting in my cart right now... keep hovering over the "buy now" button. Talk me into it.

um, you can buy a steak dinner with the savings? but seriously, if you like 250 carries with a sweet baby fade where ever you point it, you wont be disappointed. if you prefer the draw, just whisper something nice to it before you address (and strengthen your grip a little). and the stock headcovers are pretty intimidating. really cant go wrong here.

Ordered the 0811X last night. A rep from PXG text me today welcoming me to the PXG family. He says they're opening a store in Houston soon.

I'll report back when it arrives and I take it to the range.

I believe they have a 30 day no questions asked return policy, as well.

I have had the 0211 driver with a HZRDUS Yellow shaft for a couple of months now (cut to 44.5"). When I execute a good pass at the ball, it's as solid as any driver I've owned (sound, feel, distance).

PS: I make a good pass at the ball about 20-25% of the time.

0811X arrived Saturday evening. Haven't had a chance to hit it up it looks great at address.

Agree.

I can tune a GC2 to 105* F...2000 feet above sea leave...with 30MPH at my back.
