Fast Facts PXG 0311 Gen5 Driver Aluminum vapor coated carbon fiber crown Adjustable hosel +/- 1.5° Improved aerodynamic shaped crown Three sole weights Face Ti412 titanium Head design dampens vibration Stock shafts: choice of four Stock grip: PXG Z5 Company President, Parsons extolled the introduction of the 0311 Gen5 models, “We absolutely killed it with these clubs. GEN5 is better in every way possible. From explosive distance to tight dispersion, to the oh-so sweet feel of forgiveness on every shot, these clubs are a master class in performance!” The technology of the drivers is interesting. PXG is the only company that applies the aluminum vapor coating to the carbon fiber crown inside a vacuum chamber. They contend this process stiffens the crown, thus lessening distortion at impact to increase the head’s Coefficient of Restitution to create faster ball speed as less energy is lost from crown deformation. For golfers that are not rocket scientists, Coefficient of Restitution, or COR is defined as the ratio of the final velocity to the initial velocity between two objects, after their collision. Basically, COR is a measurement of the energy loss, or retention when two objects collide. The bottom line is that there is less give in the crown of the club head, which creates a better launch off the face of the PXG Gen5 models, to make the ball go farther, as well as straighter. The XF model is longer from heel to toe with a larger profile, which makes it even more forgiving for those off center hits.
