It was pretty straightforward. If our driver was longer or had a tighter dispersion, PXG won. If not, we handed over a $100 USD Mastercard Rewards Card. No questions asked.<br><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"PXG GEN6 Driver Challenge | PXG #shorts\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/iqgiDy6l9kU?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><br>\u201cPXG has never lacked confidence, but it\u2019s more confident in the 0311 GEN6 Driver than any other it has put out in the past, and we found out exactly why,\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/www.golflink.com\/equipment\/pxg-0311-gen6-driver-review\">wrote GolfLink\u2019s Nick Heidelberger<\/a> after taking the challenge. \u201cIt\u2019s as long as the longest drivers on the market, and more accurate.

And it wasn\u2019t exactly close.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A staggering <em>93 percent<\/em> of the 2,280 challengers did not walk away $100 richer. Luckily for them, though, they found a driver that\u2019s better than the one currently in their bag, and it\u2019s hard to put a price on that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;To be honest, I&#8217;m really blown away by the PXG 0311 GEN6 Driver,\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=vSNsGvKda2k\">said Paul Libertore<\/a> with Golfer\u2019s Authority. \u201cAfter seeing the numbers, it&#8217;s clear that this driver doesn&#8217;t just meet expectations, but it sets them.

We could explain the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pxg.com\/the-range\/news\/blazing-fast-beyond-forgiving-absolutely-stunning-all-new-pxg-0311-gen6-golf-clubs-flat-out-perform\/\">technology that went into the GEN6 Driver<\/a> that generates significant face deflection to create ultra-fast ball speeds, or we can just show you the results. Among the more than 2,000 drivers put to the test, the GEN6 averaged an additional 8.6 yards in total distance. The average distance with the PXG was 242 yards as compared to 234 yards with competitor drivers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Kyle MacLachlan Driver | PXG #shorts\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/mS-EyjxTM5E?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Adding 25 Yards To The Drive | GEN6 Driver Challenge\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/01jAK00KK6g?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>TIGHTER DISPERSION<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>But, what\u2019s distance without accuray?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Not only is the GEN6 Driver engineered for outstanding distance, it also delivers incredible forgiveness and tight dispersion. On average, the more than 2,000 challengers saw a dispersion pattern of 33-feet, seven-inches when swinging the GEN6 compared to 48-feet, one-inch with their current gamers. Getting properly fitted is one of the best things you can do for accuracy off the tee, and the tall\/deep clubface of the GEN6 is designed to support excellent mishit performance, especially on higher face impacts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"GEN6 Driver Challenge at #PXG Seattle | PXG #shorts\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/WOWZlEKXHws?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>KHANG AND THE GEN6 WIN ON TOUR<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>From beginners to best in the game, PXG designs clubs for every player, and the incredible results for the GEN6 Driver go beyond the hitting bay.
