    Preferred Shaft Flex

    Recommendations for players who CONSISTENTLY hit their 7-iron:

    • Ladies: Less than 120 yards.
    • Senior: 120-135 yards.
    • Regular: 135-155 yards. Most common flex.
    • Stiff: 155-175 yards.
    • Extra Stiff: 175 yards or more.

    Beginning golfers who are not in the Ladies or Senior shaft flex category should select Regular Flex Shafts.

    Preferred Shaft Material

    GRAPHITE shafts are vibration-dampening, lightweight options. They produce a softer feel, a higher launch, and more speed for improved distance.

    STEEL shafts are designed to maximize consistency and provide a stable feel for stronger players. Steel shafts are generally heavier than graphite and are available in a variety of weights and stiffness profiles to help optimize your launch conditions.

    Preferred Grip Size

    Measure your hand, crease to finger tip.

    • Undersize: less than 6.5"
    • Standard: 6.5" to 8"
    • Midsize: 8" to 9"
    • Oversize: more than 9"

    Nothing Is Faster Than Lightning

    PXG Lightning is the longest, fastest and overall best driver on TOUR!*

    Power Captured. Speed Delivered.

    PXG Lightning Drivers capture that precise moment of pure energy and transform it into your fastest, most efficient drive yet. Precision-engineered, each model features our proprietary Frequency Tuned Face, designed to synchronize vibration with impact for unmatched energy transfer, explosive distance, and that unmistakable PXG sound and feel.

    Performance Benefits

    Four distinct head designs to ensure every golfer experiences optimized launch, feel, and forgiveness tailored to their game. Engineered to be custom fit, every detail of the PXG Lightning Driver family was designed for measurable speed gains, maximum forgiveness and incredible sound and feel.

    • Confidence-Inspiring Sound & Feel
    • Consistent Performance in All Conditions
    • Customizable Flight Bias
    • Faster Ball Speeds
    • Four Versatile Models to Suit All Players
    • Higher MOI & Forgiveness
    • Optimized Shot Direction
    • Spined Sole Design
    • Engineered to be custom fit
    • Frequency Tuned Face

    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.

    *Maximum back weight of 17.5g on Max 10K+

    Reviews

    Lightning Tour-Mid

    "This would have been a 5 star review because the 2 rounds I’ve played with it I’ve gained 5-10 yards of distance over my previous Taylormade driver and have found more fairways. Unfortunately during the 2nd time out with it I heard a weird noise after hitting and found the carbon on the bottom cracked. Customer service has been great though and PXG is sending me a new head so I’m hoping this driver isn’t fragile and it was just a one off type of thing."

    Drew (4/5)

    It’s so great to have

    "It’s so great to have the ball launch off the club face. I had a Generation 5 which was equivalent to the Black Ops in distance but not dispersion. The Lightning went 25 yards further. Great club and a Great Fitting in Plano Texas. You are my Golf Club distributor for life"

    Michael D. (5/5)

    It’s working great for me!

    "It’s working great for me! It has helped narrow my fairway dispersion nicely. My slice/fad is much more under control. I have probably gained 20 yards on average and my percentage of solid feeling hits off driver has increased. I look forward to the tee box experiences now as I have real confidence in my results"

    Steven K. (5/5)

    I have been learning how

    "I have been learning how to use the new Lightning and now that I have figured out my grip a bit better I am finding that the drives are going much straight and gaining some distance. Need lots of practice but I am gaining confidence with it."

    Wade P. (5/5)

    This driver is awesome! It

    "This driver is awesome! It took me a few hours on the range to get used to it. I have gained 30-40 yards on my drives with less effort, completely changed my game from long irons to short iron…. The fairway woods are the most impressive just point and shoot! Thanks to the great fitter who fit me!!! I can not complain about a single club in my bag!"

    John S. (5/5)

    Best driver I’ve ever used,

    "Best driver I’ve ever used, not the longest but I’m 74 now. Combines with the cypher shaft it is a real fairway finder. Had a full bag fitting and really am enjoying them esp. the 7&9 woods, WEAPONS. Shot my 74 the 3rd time out"

    Glenn S. (5/5)

    Totally enjoy my new driver.

    "Totally enjoy my new driver. I did turn it down to an 11 degree. I still get the trajectory I want but I also get the release and roll. My average drive is about 235 yards. I’m almost 80 years old now and never expected to be able to drive a ball that far again. Thank you Richard."

    George S. (5/5)

    I really like the driver

    "I really like the driver it’s great. But I have a question for you. When you buy a new car do you pay separately for the jack to change a tire? Why are you charging people separately for the tool to adjust the driver? That tool costs less than a dollar to make."

    steve p. (5/5)

    Black Ops to Lightning

    "I recently did a mobile fitting at my club and tried the Lightning Max 10K at 10. 5 degrees. Compared to my Black Ops at 9 degrees, I was hitting drives 10-20 yards longer. You never know how things will change once you're on the course but I'm pleased to say that the distance gain has stood up with no change to my swing. I am thrilled with the results and love all my PXG clubs!"

    Mark K. (5/5)

    Friendly staff helped me find

    "Friendly staff helped me find the perfect driver for me. Added additional 10-15 yards gained from the tee. Highly recommend PXG store in Huntington Beach."
