The X Factor: PXG’s New 0317 X Driving Iron

Sometimes you and hybrids just don’t jive. Or sometimes you just need something different to bridge the gap between fairway woods, hybrids and long irons. Whatever the case is, PXG’s 0317 X Driving Iron is engineered to be the ultimate hybrid alternative or specialty club for extreme courses and conditions.

The 0317 X presents a tour-inspired design that significantly boosts moment-of-inertia and increases forgiveness for unmatched distance and accuracy.

“A slick replacement for a wood when the course calls for it, the PXG 0317 X Driving Iron will help you keep it in play even in the most challenging environments,” said PXG Founder and CEO Bob Parsons.

The PXG 0317 X Driving Iron is triple forged from 8620 soft carbon steel. The forging process creates a tight crystalline grain structure that delivers a pure resonance and an excellent feel at impact. Then, like PXG’s 0311 GEN6 irons, the face and back of the clubhead are precision milled to ensure every surface, curve, and angle are produced to exact specifications. The clubhead, which presents a taller and longer blade length than a traditional player’s iron, then undergoes a precise robotic polishing process to refine the sole and other geometries for a flawless finish and unmatched consistency club to club.

To further supercharge performance and feel, the 0317 X Driving Iron is injected with PXG’s proprietary XCOR2 material, first introduced in the company’s award-winning 0311 GEN6 irons, backs an ultra-thin clubface. The high-speed resin core is injection molded into the clubhead’s hollow cavity. The material provides structural stability to the face (which, unsupported, would fail with a single hit) and dramatically increases ball speed performance.

To help ensure a uniform feel from the top to bottom of your bag, the 0317 X Driving Iron features a single, large weight is located near the center of gravity on the back of the clubhead. The Precision Weighting Technology is used to achieve optimal swing weight. Unique to PXG, customers can experience the benefits of these adjustments during an in-person fitting. Weighting is not intended to be adjusted after purchase, unless done by at PXG.

The 0317 X Driving Iron is available right now in a chrome finish, in a standard 18-degree loft, similar specs to a 2-iron. But thanks to the triple forged constructions, the 0317 X Driving Iron can easily be adjusted a few degrees stronger or weaker (along with other lie angle adjustments).
