The BEST FORGIVING DRIVER Of 2024 - I WAS WRONG

Fun fact: the PXG clubs are pronounced “Oh three eleven”. Their clubs are named after the US Marine job codes. 0311 is infantry.

I’m just recovering from a stroke, but hoping I will be able to play sometime this season. Want to get fitted for a new Ping driver, as I play with Ping now, and have an old G30 driver that I don’t hate. Loved your video Sir. Thank you for your insight. 🇨🇦💝👍

PXG does offer special discounted pricing for active or retired law enforcement and military, for me in the states being in that program myself, i can get the 0311 black ops for $449. And most everything on the website is discount to some extend which it's awesome

I'm becoming a big fan of PXG clubs. It took me a while to get there, but I'm here. They make great clubs, give a nice discount to veterans, and put all of the really nice premium touches on things like head covers, etc. I have the 0311 GEN 6 Driver and GEN 6 hybrid XF and I love them both. Great clubs.

Played around with a mate off 32 handicap, he got fitted for the Ping G430 max 10k. Even with 10k you still have to hit it middle or vey close. 10k is an advertising plug that’s working. Looks wise that PXG is tidy

As good as the Ping might be - I just cannot get comfortable over it with how busy the club head is with those weird turbulators or whatever the hell they call these things on the top. The Cobra LTDx was in my bag the last 2 years but after testing - nothing compared to the Callaway AI Smoke!

You show the distance, but you never show which driver more accurate. For years I have seen James hit the Ping more accurate but choose a different driver because of distance. I use to do the same thing. I have always been a TM guy, but switched to Ping due to accuracy. I hate the tabulators but love the accuracy.

One has to wonder if the clubs have hit a limit. A this far and no farther. I used to update my clubs every 1-2 years. Now, I wait until I feel I’m losing yards due to metal fatigue. My hybrids were a classic example. Lost 15 yards and upgraded and got the 15 yards back.
