PXG

Why we like it

Unlike the 0317 T, which has a hollow-body construction, the 0317 CB is a more traditional single-piece forging. With a longer blade length, thicker topline and wider sole, the CB provides a higher moment of inertia that reduces ball-speed loss on shots that fail to find the centre of the face. The large weight in the back of the club can be adjusted during the fitting process (something PXG encourages) to achieve the optimal swingweight. The face is milled to ensure flatness and a precise control on thickness.

• Robotic polishing minimises hand work.
• Grooves are close to the R&A/USGA limit for maximum spin.
• Same loft, bounce and offset as 0317 T eases blending sets.
• 7-iron: 33 degrees; PW: 46 degrees
