New PXG prototype driver

[zeke66]

Let’s see some more! Anyone have anything? Can’t wait!

[MarkFromTheUK]

Will definitely try this out, even though I am happy with my existing bat. Glad to see the prices are going to be more in line with other OEMs. Going to. research which shaft has the best resale, order it, then put my existing AD-GP 7 in it when it arrives.

Fairways/Hybrids have the same crown as the drivers!

[Golfingfanatic]

So many good drivers this year.

[snagy2000]

The 2 articles give a good overview of the new line. Can't wait to hit the new stuff in a little less than a week at my fitting.

Truly a club ho’s dream right now with new equipment!

[ago33]

I love the look and the “reasonable” price point

[zeke66]

Yes! Can’t wait to shaft this up with my green aldila proto. Lasers. Should probably hit it before hand. Do you guys expect original SLDR spin? I wonder what the MOI is. ?

[MarcoPXG]

If the PXG drivers perform equally or a tad better their going right in my bag as their previous models price points really didn’t impress me. I play their irons and wedges based on feel and performance but now their new drivers got my attention

[Warrick]

So, how did Bob make a better driver that costs that much less than the previous?

 

I am guessing the last one tanked in sales.

 

Smart move, especially if performance is there, price is comparable now, and it looks pretty good too.

[300_Straight]

So easy to tell that Ping engineers came up with this Driver aesthetics-wise. Looks so similar but even better IMO. $575 is a huge price drop. I've never hit PXG before, but this Driver looks really nice.

[elwhippy]

Are they looking to increase supply as I can see a drop in price mean more people giving them a try?

Read the spy article, has some of your answers...Whether or not it's true...

I'm really interested in this extremely low CG. PXG claims it's ~4mm below the Neutral Axis, which is incredibly low. The King LTD Pro was ~0.6mm below * 8.5* loft while the M1 430 of the same year was ~.7mm below @ 9.5*. If that's right, with the current MOI predictions, this Driver is going to be a BEAST. Low spinning, ultra-forgiving bomber.

Driver looks pretty good and coming down on price some makes sense. The "X" for the alignment aid looks really cheap though.

Yeah thats super impressive -4mm in the 0811X weights forward -1.5mm with the weights back. The MOI on the X with the heavy weights forward is 4400 and the weights back 4800.

 

5900 MOI in the XF with 0 CG is great for a driver with that MOI.

I remember Shiels having a hell of a time getting comfortable with the king Ltd and that was just slightly below the equator. Notice how mgs didn’t rave about the feel on these new drivers. But I do give parsons credit for pushing the cg boundaries like ping has. And they are good looking drivers Funny if some people will choose not to carry pxg now that the pricing is no longer elitist.

and there it is.....

 

bring performance up to snuff with other OEM'S, then get the price in the ball park, now we can consider.

[300_Straight]

All depends on strike location. Lower CG is better if you strike it in that location and high CG is better if you strike it higher on the face (relative to CG position). Striking the face below the CG will have less of an effect with the lower CG because you are essentially closer to the CG itself. If that makes sense.

[onafriday]

That’s one heck of a compelling review on MGS.

 

I think we can generally count on @GolfSpyT and their crew to hold no punches?

 

He’s basically gushing!

[SEP1006]

Two damn good choices and looks like you can't go wrong either way!!!!

[spartan6910]

Am I understanding correctly that the F is lower-spin?

[DFS PFD]

Am I understanding correctly that the F is lower-spin?

Incorrect, X is low spin. XF has higher MOI, thus more spin, more forgiving.

Got it. Thank you!

[PgaTour2008]

I think the entire line looks incredible - nice work PXG!

[zeke66]

The best part about this is that PXG can make their version of the 2016 M2 and not have to upgrade it ever or feel pressure to upgrade it like Tmade! Ha. Tmade is kidding themselves if they don’t think that was their best driver. SAD! Great move for PXG here.

[BlackM00Nlight]

I’m genuinely excited about this pig offering. And I’m by no means a pxg fan. But this line of woods, a putter, and irons through the heroes program has me intrigued.

[Cottonseed.]

Need a Rick Shiels review for the Gen 2 drivers.

 

Get on that Rick.
