If the PXG GEN6 Driver is longer or has a tighter dispersion, PXG wins. If not, PXG will hand over a $100 USD Mastercard Rewards Card. No questions asked.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe PXG GEN6 Driver stands tall next to all the established brands. It\u2019s blazing fast and beyond forgiving.

More than fifty golfers accepted the sample challenge. PXG won 94% of the time. The average distance with a player\u2019s current gamer was 223 yards. With GEN6, the average distance was 234 yards.<br><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Kicking off today, the challenge will run through August 31<sup>st<\/sup>, 2023.

The PXG 0311\u00ae GEN6 Driver features a traditional teardrop head shape with a notably curved crown structure and a shorter body from front to back. The tall\/deep clubface is designed to support excellent mishit performance, especially on higher face impacts. The 0311 XF<sup>\u00d2<\/sup> GEN6 Driver has a larger head profile and a more symmetrical shape than its counterpart. This makes it easier to square the face at impact, delivering the ideal blend of distance and forgiveness.&nbsp;<br><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>ABOUT PARSONS XTREME GOLF<br><\/strong><br><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Founded by entrepreneur and self-proclaimed golf nut Bob Parsons, PXG embodies his belief that every new product \u2013 from golf clubs to sport fashion apparel \u2013 should be markedly better.
