The PXG Hot Rod ZT neatly bridges the gap between premium milled aesthetics and the stability of a zero-torque design. With an existing presence on tour, it stands out as one of the most compelling high-MOI mallets for golfers looking to simplify their putting.

PXG 0211 Z Golf Club Set
Specifications
Reasons to buy
Reasons to avoid
There are three options when buying these as a set. The 10 piece full bag costs $1695 and includes six hybrid irons (6-9 plus a pitching wedge and sand wedge), three woods (a 16° driver, 4 and 5 wood) and a 0211 Hellcat Putter along with the PXG Bag and a hat. This is what we were lucky enough to be testing. You can also buy just the three woods or six hybrid irons on their own for $795 each.
Asking a beginner for north of $1,600 means these fall firmly into the premium end of the market. Value is always subjective but it's a big investment for a category of player that may not be willing to spend so heavily with a low skill level, not knowing if it will improve enough to warrant it. You only have to take a look at our best club sets for beginners to see there are a number of options out there from the leading manufacturers, but we're confident in saying the 0211 Z is one of the best beginner sets on the market.

PXG Wildcat Package Set

Reasons to avoid
With the Wildcat Package Set, PXG have focused on making the game feel as easy as possible. To do this, they've created a set of high quality golf clubs that are packed full of forgiveness, promoting ease of use for new or inexperienced golfers.
This is one of the pricier package sets out there - the ‘Full Bag Bundle’ which includes all nine clubs, a golf bag, a hat, and a dozen balls will set you back $1499.99. This is a lot of money for players only beginning their golfing journey, but it could well be worth it if you have that money to invest. This bundle comes equipped with a driver, a 5-fairway wood, a 6-hybrid, a 7-iron through sand wedge and a trusty, high quality putter.
For me, the high-lofted driver and oversized irons are arguably the standouts from this set and are exceptionally user-friendly for newcomers to the game. The design and specs have been suitably catered for the target consumer here, with the driver loft up at 16 degrees to promote easily achievable high launch. I also loved the mallet-style putter, an area in which so many manufacturers cut corners in package sets. This putter feels premium and well-built, providing excellent alignment assist for players on the greens. Truly, the only critique of this set is the price, but you're getting what you pay for if you decide it's within your budget.

Drivers
PXG Lightning Max 10K+ Driver
Specifications
Reasons to buy
Reasons to avoid
We were big fans of last year's Black Ops drivers from PXG so were understandably itching to get our hands on the new Lightning family. The PXG Lightning Max-10K+ driver has been designed to be the most forgiving model in the lineup, built specifically to deliver plenty of stability and forgiveness for the user without compromising on distance.
To start with the looks, the Lightning Max-10K+ retains the signature matte black and carbon fiber look of the Black Ops range I enjoyed last year. The head shape is pleasantly modern and looks appealing and powerful as you stand over the ball. Unfortunately, the feel at impact might divide opinion - we personally found it a little too hollow and clicky in the hands, but others may love it.
In terms of performance, this driver ticks every box it was designed to tick. The forgiveness on offer is superb, rivaling the popular Ping G430 Max 10K, the TaylorMade Qi10 Max and others we consider the most forgiving drivers in that regard. Off-center hits maintain impressive ball speed retention, minimizing punishment for badly struck efforts. All in all, the PXG Lightning Max-10K+ is a successful realization of a maximum MOI concept. It’s an incredibly reliable, high-launch, and highly stable driver.

PXG Secret Weapon Mini-Driver
Specifications
Reasons to buy
Reasons to avoid
The 'Secret Weapon' is PXG's debut in the mini driver space and they've done a very admirable job on their first attempt. Not only is this a very visually appealing golf club, it's extremely versatile and performs very well both off the tee and on the fairways.
I really liked the visuals on offer from the PXG Black Ops driver family and this mini driver has a 'little brother' look from said family - a high quality carbon top suits my eye and the club head sits nicely and square behind the ball. In terms of the head size, it sits perfectly between a 'blown up' three wood and a down-sized driver.
I enjoyed using this club during testing. You never know quite what you're going to get with a mini drievr, but the Secret Weapon delivered relatively easy launch for a 13 degree golf club. In terms of distance it sat neatly between my driver and my 15˚ 3-wood in terms of carry, almost exactly dissecting them in fact with an average carry of 280 yards for me. Adjustability is also on offer with four weights on the sole of the head that can be tweaked to suit your playing characteristics.
All in all, I'd say the Secret Weapon comes in at a lofty second place in my mini driver standings, just behind the TaylorMade BRNR Copper and just ahead of the Callaway Ai Smoke Ti 340.

Woods
PXG Lightning Tour Fairway Wood
Specifications
Reasons to buy
Reasons to avoid
The PXG Lightning Tour fairway wood is designed as a high-performance, low-spin alternative to the standard Lightning model, specifically catering to more confident ball strikers and faster swingers. Visually, it features a more compact footprint with a deeper face and a rounded sole that sits flush to the turf, offering the "Tour" aesthetic preferred by players who prioritize workability and shot-shaping. The design is rounded out with a premium high-strength carbon fiber crown, which not only provides a sleek, modern look but also allows for strategic weight placement to optimize the club's center of gravity.
Thanks to the new 'Progressive Face Geometry' which utilizes a variable curvature system that changes based on the loft of the club to improve accuracy on off-center hits, we saw an impressive average ball speed of nearly 158 mph during testing. It also produced a penetrating, controlled trajectory that worked brilliantly both off the tee and from the fairway, especially in windy conditions.
Overall, we felt this model represents a major step forward for PXG, offering a blend of elite speed and precision control that makes it a formidable competitor in the low-spin fairway wood category.

PXG Lightning Fairway Wood
Specifications

Reasons to avoid
The PXG Lightning fairway wood is designed as a more forgiving, confidence-inspiring alternative to the Tour model, featuring a square and shallow face that sits effortlessly behind the ball. This strategic weight placement results in a low center of gravity that makes the club incredibly easy to launch from the turf, providing maximum stopping power on long approach shots.
The 'Progressive Face Geometry' on the Tour version is also included in the regular Lightning model which translated into remarkable consistency during testing - we saw a front-to-back dispersion of less than two yards across multiple shots, proving the club’s ability to maintain distance even on off-center strikes.
Therefore, the Lightning stands out as a high-performance, user-friendly club that offers a significant step up in speed and stability, making it an excellent fit for mid-handicappers and a wide variety of skill levels.

PXG Black Ops Hybrid
Specifications

Reasons to avoid
After how much I enjoyed the performance of the PXG Black Ops 0311 fairway wood, I was eager to get my hands on the hybrid, and I was thoroughly impressed here as well. Starting with the looks, it features a gloss black, modern aesthetic with silver elements that really give a premium, clean look in the bag and down by the ball.
From a hitting perspective, I thought the Black Ops to be one of the most forgiving hybrids currently on the market, especially from the rough. It really delivered from tricky lies which is crucial for those wanting to get further down the hole. Admittedly it wasn't one of the quickest hybrids I have tested, but it is by no means a slouch. I also liked the sound of the Black Ops, because it was noticeably more muted compared to previous models.
Overall then I think this hybrid is ideal for those wanting a club to give performance out of the rough, and want a club that looks great. However if you want the most powerful hybrid, other models in this guide are better options for you.

Irons
PXG 0311 Black Ops Irons
Specifications
Reasons to buy
Reasons to avoid
PXG have ticked all the boxes needed on their first entry into the game improvement iron category. Club head size, forgiveness and distance all deliver as part of the Black Ops package.
The first thing that catches your eye is the looks on offer here - The brushed steel finish is fantastic and the carbon effect badge on the rear (that forms part of the dual cavity design) adds a really premium feel. A chunky head sits nicely behind the ball at address which will inspire confidence for players that need it. It isn't too chunky either, rather just the perfect size for this category of iron.
If your solely looking for the most forgiving irons on the market, these should be a real contender. I found in testing that they're almost too forgiving! What I mean by that is s that it is actually quite difficult to fathom out where on the face you have struck your shot so from a feedback point of view, frankly, there isn’t much to help your development.
Nevertheless, these are seriously impressive irons that are well worth trying for the mid to high handicapper.

PXG 0311 P Gen 7 Irons
Specifications
Reasons to buy
Reasons to avoid
The 'P' version of the 0311 irons are catered to the more experienced players or those who have lower handicaps. They fall into the distance irons category so we were excited to see how they would compare to some of the best distance irons on the market.
Straight away in testing I noticed how easy on the eye these irons are, especially at the playing position. Minimal offset in the shorter irons graduates up to a more noticeable level in the mid-long irons but is far from offensive, unlike with the 'XP' versions.
The feel is a little more robust than previous PXG irons I've tested - this isn't a criticism, more so a compliment as I enjoyed the feedback and I think more skilled players will as well. In the standard loft, it produced a consistent mid-level flight window for me, and very importantly some seriously consistent carry numbers off the face. Couple this with the forgiveness on offer and it makes this set a fantastic option for the target market. They're well worth a try.

Wedges
PXG Stick 'Em Forged Wedge
Specifications
Reasons to buy
Reasons to avoid
My impression of PXG is that they are very much an “in your face” type of brand. Its gear tends to be loud. However the Stick Em bucks that trend as it offers a more classical, simplistic look.
The head profile is a touch larger than what you’ll typically see on the best wedges. This will appeal to those seeking a little more forgiveness and puts the Stick ‘Ems in the discussion amongst the most forgiving wedges of 2026.
The main story here though relates to the grooves. According to PXG they are deeper and more closely spaced, run from heel to toe, and have an aggressive precision milled face pattern. The result is a high spinning wedge that delivers impressive control around the greens.
I admit the full face grooves do take a bit of time tog et used to, especially on full shots, but I did benefit from that little bit of extra reassurance when I did get used to them.

Putters
PXG Allan Putter Review
Specifications
Reasons to buy
Reasons to avoid
Lie angle balanced putters have seen a huge rise in popularity over the past couple of years and the Allan putter is just another example of the growing popularity.
If you're used to a more traditional putter look, it may take a while to become accustomed with the Allan. Because of the unique placement of the hosel, the putter does sit with the face looking significantly onset which will feel unusual to many. However, with your hands pressed forward thanks to the leaning shaft, they'll never been behind the head of the club like they feel like they are originally.
The putter face is just 0.055 inches thick but provides fabulous feel and feedback. I felt it a particularly forgiving putter from within 10ft too, thanks in part to the aluminium alignment feature on the top frames the ball nicely. If you're uncomfortable over short putts on the green, this is a unique model well worth trying.

PXG Hot Rod ZT Putter
Specifications

Reasons to avoid
The Hot Rod ZT is the brand's first zero-torque putter released with a conventional neck configuration, marking a step change from previous models like the Allan putter and the Mustang.
It poses a striking look, featuring a modern precision-milled 6061 aluminium head with a sleek black finish. The head distributes mass through a high-MOI mallet shape that frames the ball cleanly at address and the overall size, along with the alignment cues, will inspire confidence over a putt for those who need it.
The putter is engineered with 6° of measured loft, although it only plays around 3° thanks to the integrated forward press grip on the putter. Out on the greens, the stability was instantly noticeable when putting from inside 10 feet. The Hot Rod ZT felt almost automatic, and thanks to the easy alignment and zero-torque design, it allowed me to just rock my shoulders and trust the face to return squarely to the ball. Off-center strikes were also incredibly forgiving.

How we test
Here at Golf Monthly, we employ a rigorous testing procedure when reviewing any product. All of our writers are experienced golfers who know and understand how to use golf equipment and can ably analyze the benefits and drawbacks of any product. Essentially, we look to test gear to help you make the most informed decision when purchasing a set of clubs or a pair of golf shoes. Specifically, when it comes to the best PXG golf clubs, we look to test each club in a variety of conditions on the course to give us the best possible insight into what that club offers.
Whether we're testing a driver or a putter, we will look to assess the benefits and features each club offers to understand who it is best suited to. We test each club out on the course too, in order to give us accurate readings on the distance it offers, how much spin we can put on each club and the general feel of the ball against the clubface. One thing to note is that we only use premium golf balls when testing new golf clubs and that manufacturers cannot buy a good review. It should be noted that we also do indoor testing on launch monitors as well to get baseline data.
How to choose PXG golf clubs
Buying golf clubs can sometimes be a tricky thing to get right. Clubs come in all shapes sizes and with a ton of technology. While we always recommend players get custom fitted for their clubs, sometimes it's good to have a bit of advice knowing what to look out for on your clubs before you head down to your club shop. For that reason, we've set out below a couple of key points you should keep in mind if you're thinking about picking up a set of PXG golf clubs.
1. Price
The first thing to note about PXG clubs is that they can sometimes be expensive, particularly their irons. While the 0211 driver is a an excellent value club, you will find some of their other options can be a bit costly so make sure to assess what you're buying and your needs as a golfer before you invest.
2. Your experience level
Every golf club on the market right now is designed to cater to the needs of a particular player. From the best drivers for high-handicap golfers to the best game-improvement irons, each will cater to the needs of that player in their size, shape and technology on offer. For that reason, when buying any golf club you'll need to assess your experience level and aspirations as a player and attribute that to the club you're buying. For example, high-handicap players should look to buy more forgiving golf clubs, while experienced golfers may look to purchase clubs that offer a little more in terms of performance.
3. Visuals
Aesthetics aren't the most important thing to consider, but they can play a big factor in helping boost your confidence on the course. Playing with a good-looking gear always helps to boost the mental side of your game and that in turn can help you score better. Certainly there are some stunning options from PXG listed above on this list.
4. The clubs you already have
Take stock of the clubs you already have and the yardages they offer and try to fill the gaps in your bag that you might need. This is particularly important if you're buying a couple of new wedges or hybrids. You don't want to be purchasing the same club that you may have and be comfortable with, so try to ensure you have a good range of clubs.
