I’m considering picking up the PXG 0311 Gen5 driver, but I want to gather some insights before making a final decision. Has anyone had a chance to try it out?

Here are a few points I’m particularly interested in:

  • Performance Metrics: How’s the ball speed and spin?
  • Forgiveness: Is it forgiving on off-center hits?
  • Comparisons: How does it stack up against previous models or other drivers in the same price range?

I’ve seen a few video reviews, but I would love to hear some personal experiences. Any feedback or thoughts would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

I’ve been using the PXG 0311 Gen5 driver for a month now. The distance has been impressive; I’m hitting at least 15 yards further than my previous driver. The feel is solid, almost buttery! Definitely worth a try.

What swing speed do you have? I’m curious if speed influences the performance for others. I’m at around 105 mph.

I swing around 98 mph, and I’ve noticed the accuracy improves significantly. My last driver would sometimes go left randomly, but with the PXG, it feels more controlled.

I agree! The face of the Gen5 driver is very forgiving. I’ve hit a couple of mishits, but it still went fairly straight.

I think the feel is the standout feature. It just gives you that confidence when you set up to drive. I recommend trying it with different settings on the adjustable hosel to see what works best for you!

I had the chance to compare it with my friend’s TaylorMade SIM2. The PXG felt much more stable through the swing. Has anyone else done comparisons with this driver?

8

Yes! I owned a Callaway Epic Max before this, and the PXG far exceeds it in both distance and control. The feel was night and day.

I must say, the aesthetics of the PXG drivers are also a big selling point for me. They look classy in the bag. But how does that compare to performance?

Performance-wise, I believe it holds up just fine against the competitors. But hey, looks do help with the overall experience, right?

True! But at the end of the day, what matters most is the performance on the course. That’s why we buy these drivers after all.

I’ve read mixed reviews about the PXG 0311 Gen5 from others. Some swear by it while others think it’s overrated. I’m just waiting to hear from more users before making a decision.

I get that! Every player is different, and what works wonders for one might be just average for another.

14

Personally, I think it’s a great driver, but the price is a bit high. I wonder if it’s truly worth the latest tech or if other brands can perform just as well for less.

Yeah, it’s a big investment. Can’t just buy it based on a shiny review! But I’ve heard you can demo these before purchase, which might be a great option.

Does it really matter how it looks when you’re out on the course, though? I mean, unless you’re trying to impress the squirrels, right? :joy:

LOL! Good point! I suppose a solid drive will impress those on the course far more than aesthetics.

I’m really impressed with the PXG 0311 Gen5 Driver’s sleek design. The head shape is visually appealing, and I love the color options. It definitely looks premium!

19

I agree! The black matte finish makes it stand out. It feels like holding a piece of art rather than just a golf club.

The silver accents totally elevate the overall build quality. It feels well-crafted and sturdy during swings, which boosts my confidence.
