PXG 0211 Driver

[timd77]

Feel like I missed the boat on these! Saw that they were £129, thought about pulling the trigger, waited till the next day and they’d all gone! Seems like an absolute steal, even if it doesn’t work out they’re still going for that and more on eBay.

I heard nothing until the day before. I ordered mine last Friday, got notification on Thursday, arrived Friday. No news inbetween.

Cheers, it did say dispatch 7-10 days to be fair but hoped to get it for this weekend. Hopefully have it for next weekend anyway

Hoping my 0811 arrives before the weekend, excited to hit a "proper" driver for the first time! Currently gaming a RAM beginner set from about 2011

Driver arrived today.
Great service 7 working days from order.

The only thing was no email to confirm order. I was going to ring today but was emailed about delivery yesterday

I have the 0211 and not impressed at all. Was fitted for it but it's not great. I have had lessons and both pros I have seen have struggled to get results out of it too.

I am getting rid of mine.

Presumably it worked well when you were fitted for it, otherwise you would not have bought it. There is a returns policy with PXG, did you speak to them about the club not working for you after the fitting?

Not really actually, but i'd had it in my head I wanted a new driver so I just went for it. But the performance just isn't that good.

Managed to get a short session on the range today not that impressed (probably the wrong shaft for me). Will give it a go on the course but probably likely to go back or after listing on Face book for a short while.

Hitting it well with about the same dispersion as my M4 but it need a lot more oomph to get it to work and distance* was not that great. The sound was about the same as my Ping G425 3 wood.

* Hard to tell for me on the range as I never go on the range with my existing driver so only going by visual and tracer.

I've just bought one, the 0211. Well worth a punt, cheaper than second hand drivers that are 4-5 years old. The 60 day return policy also gives pretty good comfort if I really don't get on with it.

Thanks for highlighting the sale @slicer79

What weight is the shaft?

What weight is the shaft?

I went for a senior shaft, 50g. They suggested 40g but I bottled it as too big a drop from my current clubs. I was worried it would feel too light and whippy.

Used it on Saturday and was really pleased. I have a slow and limited swing, combination of dodgy lower back and limited talent, and this needed minimal effort to get it out there.

I have the 0211 & V impressed. Was fitted for it & the fitter got it bang on, best driver I've had. The pro I saw tried to get me into a stiff shaft that even I know wasn't suitable.

Great news. Glad it's working for you.

I have PXG irons and love them, just not impressed with the driver.

Got my 5 wood today, just over a week from ordering. Took it to the range. Tried a couple of different settings but best on the standard. Hopefully will be good on the course on the weekend

You just know that isn't going to happen

I do understand your reservations over the lighter shaft.
But, I bet if you were given two clubs to try, one, 50g and one 40g, you would not be able to tell the difference. ?

You are probably right but never having tried one it was just a step too far. I did try to arrange a fitting to try them both out but it wasn't possible, the offer would have been over, the clubs all sold out. My previous driver apparently has a 70g shaft so 70 to 40 sounded scary ?.

Hopefully at some point I'll get a go with a 40g version, it would be interesting to try.

James Robinson went and bought one, and he's tested it against arguably the best brand in golf, and it's not a million miles off.

I've just had a driver fitting and couldn't beat my Callaway XR16. However, at this price it's tempting to order one.....
