PX
The 0311T GEN2 is PXG's blade for the 2018 lineup, and it's exactly what the name implies. The T stands for Tour, the muscle back construction leaves no doubt about who it's built for, and the compact head sits at address like a knife. This is a forged carbon steel blade for players who deliver the ball on the center of the face and want feedback when they don't.
What sets it apart from a traditional muscle back is the tungsten. PXG packs high-density tungsten weighting into the head, which lets them push mass toward the perimeter and low in the club without bloating the shape. You still get the thin topline and minimal offset a blade player expects, but with a touch more stability than a solid slab of steel would give you. It's a small margin, and PXG isn't pretending otherwise.
The 34 degree 7-iron loft tells you this iron is honest about distance. There's no jacked-up loft trickery here to inflate carry numbers. You hit your 7-iron the distance a 7-iron should go, and the gapping through the set stays clean and predictable. That matters more to a blade player than a couple of extra yards ever will.
In short
The PXG 0311T GEN2 (2018) is a compact blade for skilled ball-strikers who want feel and shot control. The set runs 3-iron to PW with a 34° 7-iron. It carries a $595 MSRP.

PXG forges the 0311T GEN2 from soft carbon steel and finishes it as a true muscle back, so the mass sits directly behind the impact zone for a dense, connected feel at contact. The tungsten weighting is the design story. By moving that heavy material to the toe and low in the head, PXG shifts the center of gravity without adding bulk to the profile, which is why the club can hold a thin topline and short blade length while behaving slightly more forgivingly than its looks suggest. The set runs from a 20 degree 3-iron down to a 46 degree pitching wedge in four degree increments through the middle irons. Offset is minimal and the sole is narrow, both of which give a skilled player the ability to work the ball, control trajectory, and hit the flighted shots that a blade rewards. Turf interaction is precise rather than forgiving, so it asks for a clean, ball-first strike.
The PXG 0311T GEN2's 7-iron is lofted at 34° - traditional - aligned with classic iron loft standards. For a golfer with an 85-95 mph swing speed, this projects to a 7-iron carry of approximately 136-146 yards. The 5-iron (26°) to 7-iron gap of 8° is spread across a wide range, which may create overlapping distance windows with similarly lofted fairway woods or hybrids. The pitching wedge at 46° is traditionally lofted, pairing naturally with a standard 52° gap wedge.
It's a true muscle back blade. The back of the head is solid behind the hitting area rather than hollowed out into a cavity. The tungsten weighting gives it a hair more stability than an old-school blade, but the shape, the thin topline, and the demand for center contact are all pure blade.
This is a single-digit handicap iron, and realistically it suits mid-single-digits and below. If you're not striking the center of the face most of the time, the blade construction will punish you on distance and dispersion. Better players will love the feedback and control.
PXG uses tungsten because it's much denser than steel, so a small amount of it moves a lot of mass. That lets them position the center of gravity low and toward the perimeter without widening the sole or thickening the topline. You get the compact blade look with a slightly more stable strike than a plain forged blade would offer.
The 7-iron is 34 degrees, which is traditional and honest. Many modern irons strengthen lofts to two or three degrees to boast bigger numbers, so you'll likely hit this 7-iron shorter than a game improvement 7-iron. The tradeoff is cleaner gapping, higher spin, and more control into greens.
The T model is the players blade in the family, built for shot-making and feedback. The other 0311 models, like the P and XF versions, use hollow bodies and more perimeter weighting for higher launch and more forgiveness. If you want help on mishits, look at those. If you want to work the ball and feel every strike, the T is the one.
