Frequency Tuned Face
Engineered to vibrate in sync with the precise moment of ball compression, amplifying energy transfer and producing faster ball speeds. The result — more efficient strikes, longer drives, and that unmistakable PXG sound.
Adjustable Weights
Dial In Your Flight: Each Lightning Driver features PXG’s advanced Precision Weighting Technology, allowing fitters to reposition mass for tailored launch, spin, and shot-shape bias. With interchangeable weights from 2.5 g to 20 g, golfers can fine-tune feel and direction with precision.
Spined Sole Design
Stability That Speeds Up: A reinforced Spined Sole stiffens unwanted frequencies through the base of the driver, optimizing energy return and keeping every gram working toward higher ball speed. The result is cleaner vibration, faster energy release, and PXG’s signature explosive feel.
More Carbon Where It Counts
Higher Strength-to-Weight Ratio: A thin-wall carbon fiber crown and sole enable precise mass placement for optimized CG and launch conditions. Up to 84% more carbon in the Lightning chassis produces higher MOI, improved stability, and maximum forgiveness across all four head designs.
Proprietary Face Structure
Tuned for Precision and Power: Our proprietary face curvature fine-tunes directional performance to maintain optimal shot shape and control, even on off-center hits.
Engineered for Exceptional Adjustability
Fine-Tune Your Trajectory: PXG Lightning Drivers feature a refined multi-port weight system for precise CG manipulation and shot bias tuning. By redistributing up to 20 grams of mass across heel, toe, and rear positions, fitters can optimize launch, spin, and direction – no tradeoffs.

Reviews
Ride the Lightning
"Picked up the Lightning Max 10K with the Denali Frost Red 50 in a 9-degree loft. I have the 20g weight in the rear, 17. 5g in the heel, and the 7. 5g weight in the toe. This works great for me and gives me a solid strike each time. Great driver with a tremendous sound. PXG for the win here."
One of the best driver
"One of the best driver I have ever tried and Meik Fox did an excellent job helping me to deliver the results!!!!!"
So far Lightning Max is
"So far Lightning Max is GREAT. I had black ops driver and it was a total dud, think it was defective but support wouldn't make it right. Anyway, Lightning driver has been home run so far, Love it."
This driver is impressive. Definitely
"This driver is impressive. Definitely longer than my previous 0811 driver. I feel like the forgiveness is there with this driver. Also love the sound feedback from a center-face hit. If you’re looking to upgrade from a previous PXG driver I think you’ll be very happy with it."
Great driver
"At 70 yrs old the fitting and the club are amazing. I am 30 yards longer and consistently down the middle!"
Earlier this year I had
"Earlier this year I had a fitting with Kris, which was a great experience, at the Westgate location, I was looking get back into golf after a hiatus of around 5 years. After the fitting I purchased a set of irons then after a couple of months I was looking to get a new driver, which happened to go on sale, and set up another fitting with Kris again and he again set me up fantastic with a new driver which I purchased. I finally got out to the course and played a couple of times and I am very happy with my purchases. Thanks again to the personnel at the Westgate PXG. I must likely will be returning for wedges."
Great driver
"I’m getting back into golf after about 18 years of not play. Keep in mind I wasn’t very good when I did play. This driver is very forgiving and easy to hit. It actually gives me confidence in my drive for the most part. 100 percent I recommend this driver to everyone. I also shorten the shaft by 1” that I also believe helps."
Great fitting session with Tyler
"Great fitting session with Tyler Rawson. The head shape of the Tour Mid really suites my eye. PXG's materials and build quality are second to none. Overall, a solid addition to my bag."
I am so pleased with
"I am so pleased with the lightning driver. It has a very balanced and solid feel. Really moves through the ball."
This is my third set
"This is my third set and I love this current version even better than the previous sets. The setup, the way the clubs lie and the feel is better. I went with steel shafts this time over the graphite and really like the weight and how they feel. I went with a hybrid 7 iron this time with the 11 wood, 7 wood and 4 wood. Also went with the new driver. Can’t be happier. This driver beats my TaylorMade driver hands down. My fitter (Craig) was spot on with his recommendations for the specs on these new clubs. People always ask me how I like PXG clubs and I tell them that they are the best clubs I have ever had. Keep up the good work."
