Tour Fairway Wood

The 0341 X GEN3 is PXG's 2020 fairway wood, and it leans toward the player who wants to keep spin down and hit a penetrating ball off the deck. This is the standard head in the line, not the oversized forgiveness version, so the footprint stays compact and the flight comes out lower and hotter than a typical game-improvement 3-wood. If you like a fairway wood that behaves like a scaled-down driver, this is aimed at you.

What makes it a GEN3 is the honeycomb TPE that lines the inside of the head behind the face. That soft polymer backs the thin, robotically welded face so it can flex harder for ball speed, and it kills the harsh click a shallow-faced fairway wood can give you off the crown. The result is a small head that still feels solid when you nip one clean off a tight lie, which is exactly where a lot of fairway woods get thin and loud.

The low-spin billing is earned. PXG built this head to keep the ball from ballooning, which is what better players want when they need a fairway wood to run out or hold a line into the wind. It also carries an adjustable hosel, so you can move loft and lie to fine-tune launch and start direction. It is a tour-style fairway wood, and it asks for a decent strike, but it rewards one.

• Better players who want a low-spinning fairway wood that flies penetrating off the deck instead of high and floaty
• Golfers chasing distance that runs out, whether off the tee on tight holes or into the wind
• Anyone who prefers a compact, shallow-faced shape over a big game-improvement 3-wood head
• Players who want to fine-tune launch and start direction through the adjustable hosel rather than live with one fixed setting

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the PXG 0341 X GEN3 a low-spin fairway wood?

Yes. Low spin is the point of this head. The weighting keeps the ball flight penetrating rather than high and floaty, which is what better players want when they need a fairway wood to run out or hold its line into the wind. If you already spin it low and want more carry, you can raise the loft through the hosel to bring some flight back.

Is the 0341 X GEN3 adjustable?

It has an adjustable hosel that changes loft and lie, so you can raise or lower launch and shift your start direction. That lets you dial the flight up if you need more carry or down if you want to trim spin and pick up roll. The adjustment range is smaller than the GEN3 driver, but it is enough to match the head to your swing.

What does the honeycomb TPE do in the GEN3 fairway wood?

It is a soft polymer that lines the inside of the head behind the face. It backs the thin, robotically welded face so it can flex harder for more ball speed, and it damps vibration so a shallow-faced fairway wood feels solid and quiet instead of thin and clicky, even off a tight lie.

Is the 0341 X GEN3 good off the deck or better off the tee?

Both, but it favors a clean strike either way. The compact, shallow-faced shape sits down well off a tight fairway lie, and the low-spin, penetrating flight makes it a strong option off the tee on holes where you want distance that runs out. It is a tour-style head, so it rewards a solid hit more than a forgiveness-first fairway wood would.

Who should choose the 0341 X GEN3 over a more forgiving fairway wood?

Pick the X if you make consistent contact and want a lower, faster ball flight with spin held in check. Its compact shape and low-spin design suit a stronger player. If you need help getting the ball up, want a larger head, or miss around the face often, a more forgiving game-improvement fairway wood will serve you better.
