PXG Lightning Fairway Wood

The PXG Lightning Fairway Wood is built to deliver maximum forgiveness, effortless launch, and explosive ball speed from almost any lie. Whether you're attacking a par 5, hitting a controlled tee shot, or launching one high into a long approach, this fairway wood is designed to make distance easier.

A thinner, faster face combined with PXG’s Proprietary Face Structure produces impressive ball speeds and consistent distance across the entire face. The squared, confidence-inspiring head design sits beautifully behind the ball and promotes easy alignment, helping golfers swing with confidence.

The Lightning Fairway also features PXG’s Spined Sole Design and lightweight carbon fiber crown, which work together to lower the center of gravity and increase launch and forgiveness. With precision weighting and an adjustable hosel, golfers and fitters can fine-tune launch, spin, and shot shape to match their swing.

If you're looking for a fairway wood that launches high, flies far, and forgives mishits, the PXG Lightning Fairway Wood is built to deliver.

Features & Benefits

• Proprietary Face Structure - Face curvature is optimized by loft to promote straighter shots and tighter dispersion. Lower lofts prioritize control on powerful strikes, while higher lofts promote easy launch and carry.
• Faster Face Design - A perimeter that is 12.5% thinner than PXG Black Ops fairways increases face flex by 4% at impact, producing faster ball speeds and longer carry distance.
• Spined Sole Design - Reinforced sole structure stabilizes the clubhead and reduces unwanted vibration, improving energy transfer and ball speed.
• High-Strength Carbon Fiber Crown - A lightweight carbon crown lowers the center of gravity and redistributes mass around the perimeter to increase launch and forgiveness.
• Precision Weighting Technology - Three adjustable weight ports allow fitters to fine-tune launch conditions, spin, and shot shape bias.
• Adjustable Hosel - Loft and lie settings can be adjusted to dial in trajectory and optimize performance for your swing.

What We Love About This Fairway Wood

• Extremely Easy to Launch - The high-launch design helps golfers get the ball airborne quickly, even from tight lies.
• Maximum Forgiveness - A larger, squared head profile delivers stability and confidence across the entire face.
• Versatility Throughout the Bag - With loft options from 3-wood all the way to 11-wood, you can build a setup that perfectly fills your distance gaps.
• Distance Without Extra Effort - The combination of faster face technology and optimized weighting makes it easier to generate strong ball speed and carry.

Austad’s Fitter Tip

Fairway woods are some of the most versatile and most misunderstood clubs in the bag.

Many golfers struggle with launch or consistency because their fairway wood isn't properly fit for their swing speed or delivery. During a fairway wood fitting at Austad’s Golf, we look at:

• Ball speed

• Launch angle

• Spin rate

• Carry distance

• Gapping with driver and hybrids

Often, switching to a different loft, shaft profile, or head design can dramatically improve how easy the club is to hit. A properly fit fairway wood should be one of the most reliable clubs in your bag.
