Technology That Performs
PXG 0311 GEN8 Irons combine a revolutionary new Dual Weighting System, Deep Core Recoil Technology, QuantumCOR Polymer, and an Ultra-Thin Maraging Steel Face to deliver faster ball speeds, optimized spin, and unmatched feel.
Dual Perimeter Weighting System
Introducing a new era of adjustability. Our revolutionary Dual Perimeter Weighting System allows PXG fitters to independently adjust heel and toe weights from 2g to 12g in 1g increments, making measurable shot-shape changes, without altering lie or loft. This system substantially increases MOI, enhancing forgiveness and control.
Ultra-Thin Maraging Steel Face
At just .050", PXG’s thinnest face ever delivers maximum flex and ball speed. Forged from HT1770 maraging steel, it provides pure sound, incredible feel, and consistent control.
QuantumCOR Internal Polymer
PXG’s fastest and softest polymer ever, QuantumCOR, fills the clubhead cavity to maximize energy transfer and dampen vibration. Refined internal geometries and Dual Perimeter Weighting allow for even more QuantumCOR fill, boosting COR and feel across the face.
Tungsten Toe Weighting
An internal, high-density tungsten weight centers CG and stabilizes the head through impact, preserving forgiveness on off-center strikes.
Deep Core Recoil Technology
More Flex. More Energy. More Speed. Deep Core Recoil Technology is PXG’s latest face-to-core innovation, designed to amplify energy transfer and boost ball speed across the entire hitting surface.
By carving out additional internal space directly behind the ultra-thin maraging steel face, the clubhead can recoil more efficiently at impact, creating a dynamic spring-like effect. This added face deflection means higher launch conditions, faster ball speeds, and more consistent distance, even on off-center strikes.
Engineered for Exceptional Adjustability.
PXG Fitters use our Dual Perimeter Weighting System to deliver a personalized, data-driven fitting experience. If your setup needs additional refinement, we invite you to schedule a no-cost spec check with our expert fitters.
Dial In Your Ball Flight
In testing, nearly all of the players immediately felt the difference between weight configurations. And all showed measurable changes in face-to-path at impact. Real data. Real performance.
Watch Precision Tuning in Action: Shift the heavy weight heel-side to promote a draw bias. Move it toe-side for fade control. Your swing stays the same - the ball flight transforms.
