The company has developed a sophisticated manufacturing process for its irons that includes forging, high precision CNC milling, robotic plasma face welding and injection molding. High-density tungsten alloy screws, which create the irons\u2019 signature look, are the foundation for a one-of-a-kind weighting system. Similar to the irons, but leveraging 16 screws versus 11, PXG\u2019s driver uses moveable weight technology to enable every club to be strategically fitted for an individual.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>An official release date for PXG clubs for consumers has not been set, but the company expects them to be available for purchase in late summer 2015.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"has-black-color has-text-color wp-block-heading\">ABOUT PARSONS XTREME GOLF (PXG)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Parsons Xtreme Golf (PXG), based in Scottsdale, Arizona, was founded by GoDaddy founder, businessman and philanthropist Bob Parsons in 2014.
