Sign up Closed: PXG GEN7 and Black Ops Irons

At First their Irons seemed a bit too industrial for my taste , Im a player that has confidence based on club looks . Over the Years look like they're making more modern style clubs heads . Everyone I've asked on the course seems to really enjoy them , I like like to try them again see if they out perform my mizunos . 

Good Luck Everyone , Great to see PXG in the Testing. 

Excited to see this one. Never meet anyone that plays PXG and I’ve always heard they aren’t worth the price. It’ll be interesting to see the results. 

PXG has played a large role in my Golf Outings the past 5 years. They have great outreach with the community and the people I have met there have always been great to me.

Pxg has been ahead on the game in the iron space. This should be a great test. Too bad it’s not their 317 line with the T/CBs. Good luck all. 

I got the pxg gen 5 irons last year and they are great. It would be an amazing opportunity to test the gen 7s or black ops irons and give the community feedback. 

@MattWillGolf I see these as a must test for you, as you have definitely shown what prior gen PXG can do.

If I had to choose, I would love to test the XP in either finish. 

 

I've been planning to purchase a full set next spring, now with the new drop I'm super excited

I absolutely love my PXG 0411 driver and my 0211 irons, would like to compare with newer technology like, the gen 7 irons.

Such a great opportunity! I was fit for Gen6, but they didnt beat out my T300s, when comparing lofts, and not iron number. I have a positive opinion of PXG and really liked the Gen6s.  

10 words or less was hard to do. My take is PXG is evolving. They went from super premium (way overhyped), status type brand, to a very gimmicky matketing (boom baby). However, recently, I really like their approach. It seems they are focusing on being different, innovative, and offering something for everyone. Their $100 dollar driver challenge was bold. Their tech makes sense, and not just buzzwords. I wouldnt have considered PXG anywhere in my bag 3 years ago and absolutely would now. My only negative I can say is just access. Its still hard to try them. Yes you can make appointments or fittings, but there is alot of pressure to buy, when honestly I just want to try and compare without a salesman’s influence.

This is a great opportunity for someone. I am glad that PXG is participating. I’ve used’s and still use PXG woods and hybrids. Getting to the point where I’m ready to get new irons so this will be a great chance to see how these perform no matter who gets the chance.

People who play them seem to love them.  I really appreciate what they do for us vets.  Especially for those of us that left the service with less than than when we entered.  Can they get me down to a single digit?  I'd love to find out. 

My interest in PXG is that they are constantly evolving their product. I.have never swung one, and was unsure if I would as no place near me has them as a demo.  I think this newest iteration brings a dynamic core into play, as they have removed the multiple weights from the bottom, and went to a single center weight. This can only mean they changed the inner core material used to balance the head.  I would choose Blackops, graphite shafts with the XP head, and finish wouldn't matter.  My thought process would be to compare them against the moderate entry level Stix perform series, which do not have any weights, and are a uniform head.

 

No way I get picked for this but might as well sign up. Would love to see how the new versions compare to my current ones. 

Man this is awesome! I’ve always been interested in PXG irons and would love to give them the rundown. I play a Black Ops driver and 3 Hybrid and have been happy thus far!

The new PXG Store in SD opens today and I have a swing session booked to try the 0211 clubs. Love that they’re giving the forum this opportunity!

If I ever wanted to test a product this one I am really excited about. I have a pxg driver, 0811, that I love and I am now thinking of replacing my mizuno JPX 919 forged irons. To be fit for them is also good as I (at 70+yrs) am getting down to the age old average of “7i-150” stats. Forgiving is always good but I also need a low kick point shaft as my ball flight as my irons get longer is lower than days gone by. Great opportunity for pxg also because as you can see in my stats . Driver is my strong point, approach is my weak point. Let’s do it PXG!

Would love to try these bad boys out, good luck everyone! 

This is an interesting opportunity. I have no experience to draw from with PXG clubs and would love to give them a try.

 

Look, I'm no golf expert and my handicap will attest to that, but I don't need TV commercials to scream at me and remind me how much I suck at this game. Are they beautiful clubs? Yes! Do I agree with their Marketing plan? Not really. But hey, prove us wrong!

I can't wait to read the reviews.  See how these stack up.  

My Google-Foo probably stinks, but can anyone enlighten me on the general characteristics of the clubs?  Are they players distance or game improvement, etc.?  I can’t find anything out about them.

 

thanks

those look nice!

 

Happy to throw my hat in the ring as a tester. I bought a Gen4 driver and 3 wood a few years ago, my first big golf purchases after starting to play more for the first time in 15 years or so. They served me well but have since been replaced after more time spent on my game yielded some swing changes. Also I think I tinkered the driver to death, likely to my own detriment. I currently game a set of JPX 923 hotmetals. I really like them after going through a golf galaxy fitting, but would love to test them against PXG's latest.

Regarding PXG as a brand, I've never had a problem with them, but have certainly come across others that do. I think some of the irons they've produced over the last few years are among the best looking out there. Having said that, looks and brand perception both take a back seat to performance. If it looks funny but makes the ball do what it's supposed to, it's in the bag. Similarly, the brand would have to be responsible for some truly gross behavior for that to keep a great performing piece of equipment out of my bag. As far as I know PXG's big crime is annoying people who leave their TV volume too loud, so bring 'em on!

I'm waiting for a Black Ops tour 1  9⁰ driver with a Ventus black 7x. These would have been so good, but I am not North American! C'est la vie.

I got fitted for a Ping G430lst 8⁰, but wasn't convinced of the strike. So I went to PXG fitting in Harrogate,  UK, and hit bomb after bomb! Can't wait to get it!

I have to admit I checked their pro endorsements first, I figure Gary Player doesn't mess about with clubs he's not sure of! I think the Driver and its cover look awesome!
