Family shakeup: PXG 0317 T irons introduced

Published

on

PXG’s “T” irons are leaving the 0311 family and joining the ST and CB irons in the 0317 line.

With the PXG 0317 T, the company seeks to combine high-spin performance with the playability of a tour blade in a hollow-body, injection-molded design emphasizing a new stabilizing S COR polymer core and its associated benefits — improved forgiveness, consistency, and distance control.

“From the materials and processes we use to the extremely tight tolerances we maintain, these clubs are built the way they are designed and are consistent club-to-club so that elite players can experience total control and more than a touch of forgiveness,” PXG Founder and CEO Bob Parsons said.

The company’s triple-forging of 8620 carbon steel creates a “tight crystalline grain structure that delivers a pure resonance and extremely solid feel at impact.” External specifications are CNC milled prior to a robotically polished finish.

PXG’s years of polymer studies reveal that external clubface flexing and responsiveness are influenced by internal polymer materials. Accordingly, the company found the “T” iron best suited for its elite player category. The S COR — stability core — reduces face flex at impact, which increases spin and lowers initial launch angle, offering the workability and lower trajectory generally preferred by better players.

Also noteworthy: PXG 0317 T irons feature a 15-gram internal tungsten weight in the toe for CG in line with the middle of the face and a greater moment of inertia.

    I’ll never understand 2.5-degree loft gaps in the long irons and then 5-degree gaps in the short irons. I don’t think even elite players want that.

A new progressive CG design exists as the lofts increase in a bid to promote a more consistent and controlled ball flight.

“The meticulous level of detail our team invested in perfecting the grooves of this wedge lineup really paid off. From Tour player testing to amateur player testing, the feedback is resoundingly favorable that these are the highest-spinning – and most consistent-spinning – wedges Wilson has ever produced.” – Bob Thurman, Global General Manager of Golf and Vice President of Research & Development at Wilson
