How is the finish on the PXG in black? I keep going back and forth with the black finish.

 

Whilst I am all for blowing excessive amounts of money on PXG goodies, I draw the line at being charged an extra £100 per club for a bit of black paint.

I’ve played 36 holes with the pxg Black with minimal range time and the show little to no wear. I went with a sm7 black 46 instead of the pxg pw, which shows more wear. I used to play the cobra black MB’s before I went back to Miura and the pxg finish seems more durable. Still the black will fade. One thread has a pic of a years worth of play but can’t recall the name of that thread.

It looks so dope tho! lol but I see your point and specially if the finish sucks.

Mine arrived this morning!

 

They really look sleek. The topline is a little thicker than I expected for a tour/players iron, but I think I can adjust.

 

No divot tool in my box.

Very nice! Can you post a pic comparing the top line to your current gamers? Also when did you order?

 

 

I was loud about time and ended up 15 days from order to door!

Any info on how long orders placed through the heroes program take to go from "ordered" to "in production"? I ordered a week ago, haven't heard from them since initial email acknowledging my order the same day.

 

I didn’t get an email until they shipped. Total time was 14 days to my door.

I made my first PXG order. The eagle has landed and I must say that you will not be happier just opening the package. It feels special. They package everything so puuurrrrttttyyyyyyy!!!!! It was like Christmas when I was a kid. I think I tinkled a little. Thanks to Dr. Parsons giving back to his brothers it made it reasonable for me to purchase the 0811x driver and Brandon putter. I’m going to add pics but don’t be inappropriate when you see them LOL....

I'll get one done soon. Just looking down on the 0311T they look larger. But when I did a side-by-side with the iBlade 7 iron they are very close to the same size. The 0311T is ever so slightly larger with a tad thicker top line.

 

Nice! When are you playing?

 

I played a few holes this afternoon before my shift in the pro shop. When you flush these they feel incredible. As other have said, off center hits feel kinda dead.

They don’t sell lefty divot tools

 

I know you're joking but WE are both lefty! That's his point of contention

I really wanted to like the PXG 0311T 1st gen when I had the irons.... They look great, I love the PXG design, and love what they do with the Hero Program.. first class in my book. BUT..... I would choose my 716 CB all day over the 0311Ts I had. They are just better in every way, besides maybe a tie coming down to how they look by the ball. Obviously they are not as long, but that's not what I am looking for in my irons. If you have a chance to try the PXGs I say do it, but keep the 716s!!

 

Thanks to all you Heros in this thread, it's fun to see you all reap the benefits of the sacrifices you all make. Good on BP for offering it.

Not sure what the rhyme or reason would be with getting free accessories or not. May have something to do with how much you spend or just the mood of the person packing your shipment.

 

My First order was over $1500 and second order was over $1900. Both times I got the towel.......along with quality control issues and horrible customer service ?

Must’ve figured you could afford your own loft/lie machine

This thread has me pretty pumped up! On Tuesday, I saw the Gen 1 offer and on Tuesday, ordered a set (5-P) with the same specs I had been fitted for on my 716 AP2s. I loved the AP2s, but needed a little more forgiveness, so I briefly moved to the AP1s, but don't love them. Now I'm just playing the waiting game hoping that my shafts aren't backordered or anything like that. Anyway, have enjoyed reading this thread and thanks to all you first responders for all you do!

lol actually the shafts in 8-LW were off in first order and second order the SF shaft in the 5i had 3 fairly large paint chips. The latter was not a huge issue but very noticeable and should have been caught by QC. I’m without a 5i for over a week. I haven’t even checked lofts/lies yet but from another member who’s were all jacked up I probably should. I suggest to anyone who gets a set to do a thorough inspection and if anyting is wrong don’t be surprised if CS inconveniences you.
