I'd love to hit these, but I won't, because then I would want them.
That is what happened to me. Laser straight. Distance control. Now if I could only putt (and drive).

Catching up but one way to get to $5 is to contact mr Will Peoples for pricing on theseI think cost is a concern but it doesn't have to be done in a negative way - it can be balancing.
Do I want to keep one set of irons for 5 yrs to amortize the cost at $400 X 6/7 irons - $2400-2800. Over 5 years, that $500 or so per year - doesn't sound bad if you play 100 rounds per year - $5 per round? Doable!!
Can I realistically do that or do I want to purchase the latest and greatest every year? Or maybe I am the fortunate one who thinks he can recoup much of his investment and sell every 2-3 yrs and get the next PXG set?
With graphite shafts, I can't imagine a Gen 2 being softer feeling - it would be a marshmallow, and I don't like marshmallows any longer. The 4-5 yds extra? Not enough for me to get excited about - I will wait for Gen 3 ... not ... maybe ... let's look at it again.
There comes a time when some of us can't amortize $3500 or so for 6 irons and we find something comparable. My fitter was selling a lot of Mizuno Hot Metals for guys who could not afford PXG - fairly comparable performance. Of course 3500 over 5 yrs is 700/yr over 100 rounds is only $7 per round -- AGAIN -- Doable!!
Hell, why aren't we all playing PXG's for $5 per round!
Time to order, gentlemen!
I've got to call Frank (Viola) and get on eBay and sell my XF's and 0311's.
$5 per round! Let's go ... Honey, have I got a deal of the century!

Hahaha, she is a surgeon!No, no, no. Not just the larynx. You would be a tenor afterwards though.

I already know I want them. Bad thing for an iron ho to really want such an expensive set of irons.
Yep, tough to amortize that cost over 3 months...
3 months? Pffft... Who keeps their irons for at least 3 months?

I hit a number of irons blind during my most recent fitting and the PXGs weren't even a finalist.
Those hybrids on the other hand...
Which were the finalists? What irons were you coming from?

Epon 705s and TaylorMade P790s. Went with the P790s. While I didn’t hit them as well as the Epons, the difference was negligible. Coming from Apexes.
10 days after public release these irons get two victories with Lydia Ko and Billy Horschel
I can't give it to the Gen2 - Ko changed so much, and changed coaches again. Horschel disappeared after winning the FedEx - these guys sometimes take several years to reappear after success. Zach Johnson hasn't won with PXG yet.... I play them and they've helped with long irons, but Ko lost her short game for some time. Billy was probably caught up in exhibitions after the Fedex win...
Ko's driving accuracy is 70 the last 2 yr with PXG, with Callaway, around 76 from 2014-2016, her driving avg this yr is 250, up from 243 in her first yr with PXG. Not better than Callaway where she was as long with more accuracy. Her putting is a tad worse from Callaway yrs. Must be the irons ...
I want to see her win again, and want LPGA to keep better statistics.
I want to hit them. Bad.
Considering going down to Jimmie Austin @OU this summer and getting fit for fun as they're a PXG school.

Obviously it's not the new clubs that got either of them the win otherwise they woukd have won in recent weeks with them in the bag not to mention ScottPiercy has 680MBs in the bag. Horschel git a win last year at the Nelson with the gen1.
Just like any brand that touts a win for their players and especially after a new release the same was being done here. Gen2s had a good weekend with Perez finishing 2nd, Schwartzel finishing 3rd, Jessica Korda who isn't under contract finished 3rd and they had a second on the web.com tour.
