Gaming PXG 0317T

[Otter101!!!]

I would love to hear from anyone playing the PXG 0317T iron and their set up shaft, L,L,L. I have read some stories about there quality control, makes me think twice.

I received my set in November, arrived just as I spec with i95 Steelfiber, .5" long, D2.  Don't pay any attention to what you read posted on "the Internet."  Everything I have ordered from PXG has arrived on spec last 4 years.

Have you seen any performance gains or being easier to hit and produce more good shots? So I’ve been fit by PXG for 0317t plus .5, steel fiber private reserve. I’m wondering if this set up would be better overall versus a traditional, forged iron and steel shaft set up it seems to me the extra technology in the shaft and the filling in the club head can add more performance over the traditional build.

Having played blades for many years I can assure you the 0317T is a good bit more forgiving, perhaps a little less rewarding.  I am in graphite shafts last two years because the middle two fingers of my right hand just hurt too much after practice with steel shafts, or I would play steel for the additional feedback.  The 0317T gave me good distance control, steeper descent angle with more spin...which I need for our firm greens.  distance was comparable within 5 yds to PXG 0311P.  Loving everything about these irons.

Well, I ditched my mizuno Pro 223's for the 0317 t's.   Similar specs Steelfiber i95 private reserve, plus 1/2 inch.  One of main reasons for the switch, I moved from steel to graphite (steelfiber).  Best decision I have made in a long time.  The 0317 t's spin much better for me and I will not go back and the steelfiber shafts are just perfect, much better feel and way better on my joints.  They feel every bit as good as my Mizuno's and they have great forgivness.

Quality control has been good by me. I also have returned a set Gen 4 P’s because it just was not a fit and they are great to deal with. If there are issues, they work to make it right.

 

As for the irons vs traditional, I don’t notice any major forgiveness difference in 8-P, but I usually don’t. I middle those clubs consistently. Beyond 150 yards I find the 0317T quite a bit more helpful on mishits. Loss of distance is not as large. 
 

It is a very comparable iron to a Mizuno 243 (mizuno uses chromoly steel to boost the 4-7 irons, standard forging in 8-G) but obviously the 0317T has more forgiveness than the 243 in 8-G if you need it, and it is also similar to TM 770 (filled heads, like PXG).

Been gaming 0317T/CB combo for few months now and absolutely love my set up.  No complaints here.   I hear Gen 7 0311’s about to drop soon too.  Insane.

 My set of 0317T’s showed up last weekend. My specs are SF PR 110S plus 1/2 inch 2° flat, D3 swing weight. First round was a 75 at 5900 yards here in the PNW. Only have two and half rounds on them. First trackman combine was 73.2 not to bad, I don’t have my yardages down yet. So far my impression is very impressive, club and ball speed are up and I believe I’m seeing a one club increase in distances, initial dispersion is pretty good and should tighten up over time. I love the sound at impact and ball flight is very nice. I’m coming from Ping i210 best trackman combine was a 75.8 very constant and excellent dispersion but always seemed to lack some distance. It took me seven weeks of fittings and testing, two fittings at PXG. I made the right choice and I am very happy. Pretty excited to see how things progress as the season gets started in the next month or so.

Bought 0317T back in October, played a few times in fall / winter but really started playing this spring (live in NY). Hit them okay, and took them int PXG for some additional testing last week. I was fitted at 1/2 inch over and 1* flat which although the numbers were good from fitting seemed a bit strange since i'm 5'9. During the testing the fitter noticed that many of the irons were VERY flat, some irons at 4* flat..... he bent them to spec and seems to have fixed the issue. Still love the look and feel but i should've brought them in for this check when i first got them..... more to come

Been playing mine now for a few months, coming from Gen 4T, and absolutely love them. Bit less forgiving but love the look of these over gen 4T. 
 

Specs match the last irons, PX6.5 +1/2” but went standard lie as opposed to 2* up as I have gotten a bit more shallow on downswing. 
 

Cannot praise these irons enough.

Not specific to the 0317T but since you brought up quality I’ll say that my 0211ST set arrived with the most spot-on specs of any OEM build I’ve ever seen. My prior Mizunos were all over the place compared to these.
