What's Your Number?
GEN8 Irons are engineered around a pair of revolutionary adjustable weights. One in the heel. One in the toe. Those numbers? They represent how much weight sits in each position. Shift weight toward the heel or toe during your fitting to fine-tune your ball flight. More draw. More fade. More control.
Curious what your number might be? Book a GEN8 fitting to find out.
∞ Numbers That Deliver Results
In testing, nearly all of the players immediately felt the difference between weight configurations. And all showed measurable changes in face-to-path at impact. Real Numbers. Real data. Real performance.
Watch Precision Tuning in Action: Shift the heavy weight heel-side to promote a draw bias. Move it toe-side for fade control. Your swing stays the same - the ball flight transforms.
Performance Benefits
- Dual Perimeter Weighting System for a completely dialed-in fit
- QuantumCOR Internal Polymer delivering max USGA-legal C.O.R.
- Deep Core Recoil Technology for explosive speed off the face
- High launch with optimized spin control
- Tight dispersion, even on off-center hits

Technology That Performs
PXG 0311 GEN8 Irons combine a revolutionary new Dual Weighting System, Deep Core Recoil Technology, QuantumCOR Polymer, and an Ultra-Thin Maraging Steel Face to deliver faster ball speeds, optimized spin, and unmatched feel.
Dual Perimeter Weighting System
Introducing a new era of adjustability. Our revolutionary Dual Perimeter Weighting System allows PXG fitters to independently adjust heel and toe weights from 2g to 12g in 1g increments, making measurable shot-shape changes, without altering lie or loft. This system substantially increases MOI, enhancing forgiveness and control.
Ultra-Thin Maraging Steel Face
At just .050", PXG’s thinnest face ever delivers maximum flex and ball speed. Forged from HT1770 maraging steel, it provides pure sound, incredible feel, and consistent control.
QuantumCOR Internal Polymer
PXG’s fastest and softest polymer ever, QuantumCOR, fills the clubhead cavity to maximize energy transfer and dampen vibration. Refined internal geometries and Dual Perimeter Weighting allow for even more QuantumCOR fill, boosting COR and feel across the face.
Tungsten Toe Weighting
An internal, high-density tungsten weight centers CG and stabilizes the head through impact, preserving forgiveness on off-center strikes.
Deep Core Recoil Technology
More Flex. More Energy. More Speed. Deep Core Recoil Technology is PXG’s latest face-to-core innovation, designed to amplify energy transfer and boost ball speed across the entire hitting surface.
By carving out additional internal space directly behind the ultra-thin maraging steel face, the clubhead can recoil more efficiently at impact, creating a dynamic spring-like effect. This added face deflection means higher launch conditions, faster ball speeds, and more consistent distance, even on off-center strikes.

Reviews
I just put a set
"I just put a set of PXG GEN8 0311 XP irons (6-GW) in the bag, and they have completely changed my game. The larger XP heads look awesome at address and give you confidence. My mis-hits still fly straight and barely lose any yardage. If you want easy launch, massive distance, and tons of forgiveness without sacrificing that premium forged feel, you won't regret buying these."
Absolutely love these irons. They
"Absolutely love these irons. They have made a noticeable, positive difference in my game, and my scores are definitely showing it. Plus, they look amazing and have an incredibly solid feel."
Best Irons I have ever hit
"I was fitted in San Antonio by PXG Rep David Harrison who did an extensive iron fitting on my game. David fit me into Gen 8 0311 XP Heads and MMT Shafts. I can hit any shot I need. Really impressed hitting 5 and 6 iron with really nice dispersion and hole high. I highly recommend these irons and Davids fitting if you are in the area."
Gen 1 to Gen 8
"As I was a lot younger and stronger when I purchased my first set up 0311 P with stiff flex but found as I got older that my swing speed and distance suffered so I went to get a fitting with James at PXG HQ in Scottsdale and he put me in regular flex and the XP head on the new GEN 8 and immediately felt the difference in weight as as well as as overall dispersion of my shots due to the fine-tuning and waiting of the new Gen 8 irons. It is so worth it to book a fitting sessions with these professionals to dial in appropriate specs to make your swing and shot the sweetest as possible. Can’t wait to get mine in a few weeks and watch my handicap drop. Thanks again James and PXG for the best equipment for us golfers trying to improve our game"
I won money with the
"I won money with the second time out, especially getting fitted from Brian out at Loop 19 in Fort Lauderdale gained lots of yardage hitting ball straighter"
Quite simply, my favorite club!
"Quite simply, my favorite club! I was using a mini driver for tighter fairways, but I changed to this, and it's a low-launch bullet."
I have had these irons
"I have had these irons now for a couple months and I also bought the lightning driver a month later. I finally went out and played a round of golf this weekend, which I haven't played in approximately 5 years and I am extremely happy to say that I love the irons and the driver. I done better than what I expected. I plan on getting out a lot more but I love the irons and the driver, again I want to think Kris over at Westgate PXG for helping me out and being very patient on finding all the proper equipment. It was a pleasure to deal with him and he definitely knows what he is talking about thank you again."
First of all I love
"First of all I love the experience of being fitted for my frame (6’6”) and the expertise of Mark L at the Troy store We’ve worked together several times these past few years and have seen my Game improve quite significantly. Also, these Gen 8’s are joy to play with. Thx PXG for designing such a great product for my game. Kent@Saginaw,Mi."
Love my new clubs. The
"Love my new clubs. The transition has been slower than I want but going from clubs I have used for many years and 6. 0 stiff shafts to regular shafts does take some getting used too! My up and down scores will even out! I just know when I hit them right… there is no comparison!!!"
I haven’t had a chance
"I haven’t had a chance to use it on my course. However Bridget Rempe at your Orlando store did a great job. She is very professional."
Q&A
PXG 0311 GEN8 Irons FAQS
What makes PXG 0311 GEN8 Irons different from previous generations?
PXG 0311 GEN8 Irons feature a new Dual Perimeter Weighting System and Deep Core Recoil Technology, making them the most adjustable and energy-efficient irons PXG has ever produced. Combined with our QuantumCOR polymer, GEN8 delivers faster ball speeds, optimized spin, and a softer, more responsive feel.
How does PXG’s Dual Perimeter Weighting improve performance?
Our Dual Perimeter Weighting System allows PXG Fitters to shift weight toward the heel or toe during a fitting to fine-tune ball flight, shape, and start line — without adjusting lie angle. This breakthrough design boosts forgiveness and gives golfers the most precise real-time fitting experience in the game.
What is Deep Core Recoil Technology in PXG irons?
Deep Core Recoil Technology increases internal space behind the clubface, allowing it to flex more efficiently at impact. This controlled “recoil” enhances face deflection and energy transfer, leading to higher launch, faster ball speeds, and more consistent distance — even on off-center hits.
What is QuantumCOR polymer and why is it important?
PXG’s QuantumCOR is our fastest internal polymer ever. Injected into the clubhead cavity, it maximizes energy transfer for explosive distance while dampening vibrations for exceptional feel. Together with Deep Core Recoil Technology, it helps deliver the pure, high-speed performance GEN8 is known for.
Which PXG 0311 GEN8 Iron model is right for me?
- 0311 XP GEN8 – Maximum distance, forgiveness, and easy launch.
- 0311 P GEN8 – Balanced blend of distance and control.
- 0311 T GEN8 – Tour-inspired precision and workability with added forgiveness.
Are PXG 0311 GEN8 Irons good for high-handicap golfers?
Yes. The 0311 XP GEN8 model is engineered specifically for mid- to high-handicap golfers seeking more distance, forgiveness, and higher launch. Its wider sole, stronger lofts, and maximum offset make it extremely playable and confidence-inspiring.
Can I get custom fit for PXG GEN8 Irons?
Absolutely. Every set of PXG 0311 GEN8 Irons is custom-built to your exact specs — including shaft, length, loft, lie, grip, and Dual Perimeter Weighting configuration. During your fitting, PXG Fitters make real-time adjustments so you can see and feel the impact of every tweak instantly.
What finishes are available for PXG GEN8 Irons?
GEN8 Irons are offered in Chrome and Xtreme Dark finishes — both precision-forged, CNC milled and robotically polished for premium consistency and durability.
What materials are used in PXG 0311 GEN8 Irons?
Each head is 5X forged from 8620 carbon steel with an ultra-thin HT1770 maraging steel face, tungsten toe weighting, and QuantumCOR polymer core — a combination that delivers unmatched speed, feel, and forgiveness.
