PXG Gen8 0311XP Chrome Irons

The PXG GEN8 0311XP Chrome Irons are built for golfers who want maximum distance, high launch, and the most forgiveness in the GEN8 lineup. Designed with a confidence-inspiring profile and advanced PXG technology, these irons make it easier to launch the ball higher and hit it farther with consistent results.

At the center of the GEN8 design is PXG’s Dual Perimeter Weighting System, featuring independently adjustable heel and toe weights. Those numbers stamped on the club represent the exact weight configuration used during your fitting. By shifting weight placement, fitters can fine-tune ball flight—promoting draw bias, fade control, or neutral ball flight—without changing loft or lie.

Inside the clubhead, Deep Core Recoil Technology, QuantumCOR polymer, and an ultra-thin maraging steel face combine to create explosive ball speeds and optimized launch conditions. The result is powerful distance with impressive forgiveness—even on off-center strikes.

With its larger head profile, increased offset, and advanced weighting system, the 0311XP GEN8 Chrome Irons provide the ultimate blend of distance, forgiveness, and consistency for golfers looking to improve their iron play.

Features & Benefits

• Dual Perimeter Weighting System - Independently adjustable heel and toe weights allow fitters to fine-tune ball flight bias with configurations from 2g to 12g in 1g increments.
• Ultra-Thin Maraging Steel Face - At just 0.050 inches, PXG’s thinnest iron face delivers maximum flex and faster ball speeds.
• QuantumCOR Internal Polymer - PXG’s proprietary internal polymer enhances energy transfer while reducing vibration for a soft, responsive feel.
• Deep Core Recoil Technology - Additional internal space behind the face increases deflection at impact, producing faster ball speeds and higher launch conditions.
• Tungsten Toe Weighting - High-density tungsten stabilizes the clubhead and centers the CG to maintain forgiveness across the face.
• Maximum Forgiveness Design - The largest head profile in the GEN8 lineup provides increased stability, higher launch, and easier distance.

What We Love About These Irons

• Easy Launch and Distance - The 0311XP irons are designed to help golfers launch the ball high and carry it farther with less effort.
• Maximum Forgiveness - A larger head shape and optimized weighting help maintain ball speed and direction on off-center strikes.
• Adjustable Ball Flight - Dual Perimeter Weighting allows precise shot-shape tuning during a fitting.
• Confidence at Address - The larger head and increased offset inspire confidence over the ball.

Austad’s Fitter Tip

Irons like the 0311XP GEN8 are designed to maximize launch and forgiveness, but proper fitting is still key.

During a PXG iron fitting at Austad’s Golf, we analyze launch monitor data including:

• Ball speed

• Launch angle

• Spin rate

• Carry distance

• Shot dispersion

By adjusting shaft profile, loft settings, and Dual Perimeter Weighting, we can optimize launch conditions and distance gaps throughout your set. Many golfers see immediate improvements in consistency and distance control after a professional fitting.
