Holiday Gift To Myself – How PXG Golf Clubs Transformed My Game

As an avid golfer, there’s no better feeling than making perfect contact with a driver, sinking a long-range putt, or spinning a tricky bunker shot. The problem is I could rarely do it with my dad’s hand-me-down clubs. Let’s just say finding the sweet spot with those clubs is about as easy as shooting under par at Augusta National. It was high time I upgraded my golf gear this holiday season.

I found myself drooling over PXG’s sleek clubs on their website. Plus, my favorite pro golfer Joel Dahmen happens to use them. I tested them out in the state-of-the-art PXG store near me and after seeing what they do, I couldn’t say no. I bit the bullet and soon got my swanky new clubs – definitely my favorite holiday gift I’ve gotten in years.

Here’s a breakdown of everything I got:

0311 GEN6 DRIVER:

Out of my entire bag, a new driver was the club I needed most. I went with PXG’s 0311 GEN6 Driver, and let me tell you, this club is an absolute beast.

Not only does the GEN6 Driver look like a high-end sports car, but it completely changed my game off the tee box. The aerodynamic head design and high-grade carbon fiber crown provide maximum forgiveness and speed. I instantly gained 10-20 yards of distance, and I’m hitting fairways in regulation far more frequently. This club’s performance offers a major boost to my confidence, which as any golfer knows, is half the battle.

When I hit the ball the GEN6 Driver sounds like a missile, making me feel like a pro. Driving used to be a significant weak point in my game, and now I look forward to ripping one down the middle every time.

BATTLE READY II MUSTANG PUTTER:

All golfers know the famous saying – drive for show, putt for dough. As much as I hate to admit it, this sentiment holds true.

I didn’t realize how lousy my old putter was until trying the Battle Ready II Mustang Putter from PXG on the green. The balanced weight and smooth feel of this club makes putting enjoyable rather than a frustrating task on every hole. The putter features an ultra-thin face and hollow body construction, which increases the MOI (moment of inertia) – leading to straighter swing paths and more consistent rolls.

PXG has countless customization options such as hosel type, club loft/lie, shaft length and grip. I chose the standard options with the PXG Sink Fit Pistol Grip, and the club feels like an extension of my body. Plus, with PXG’s Putter Palooza Sale, you can get an amazing putter at a discounted price.

SUGAR DADDY II PXG 0311 MILLED WEDGES:

My iron game is solid, but once I get within 100 yards of the green – it’s a hit-and-hope situation. That’s why I decided to also cop the Sugar Daddy II Wedges in 56 and 60 degree lofts. These wedges look like something out of a science fiction movie with their geometric patterns and innovative designs. And, more importantly, they perform exquisitely.

Offered in two different sole options (BP-Grind & C-Grind), I went for the BP-Grind design that delivers greater forgiveness and bounce.

Not only are my chipping and wedge shots far more accurate, now I can actually get the ball to sit and spin — even out of the bunker. Getting up and down is a breeze with these clubs, and with my new putter – call me the short game king.

Final Thoughts:

I always thought my technique was the problem, but PXG proves that quality equipment is key. Investing in new clubs can seem daunting, especially for seasoned players, but it’s the smartest thing I’ve ever done to improve my game.

Sometimes, you need to treat yourself to receive the gift you truly need. If your clubs are holding you back from shooting lower scores, I’d highly recommend checking PXG and their awesome club selection!
