The 0311 GEN3 is PXG's players cavity iron from 2020, and it sits in the middle of the GEN3 family between the compact 0311 T and the more forgiving 0311 XP. What you get is a forged, hollow body club that hides real technology behind a shape that looks clean at address. The topline is thin, the offset is moderate, and the blade length is on the shorter side of the forgiving-iron world.
GEN3 was the year PXG cleaned up the look. The visible weight screws that defined the first two generations are gone, replaced by internal tungsten and a polymer core that fills the hollow head. That change matters more than it sounds. You still get the ball speed and forgiveness of a hollow construction, but the club no longer announces itself with a row of screws across the back.
The lofts here are moderate rather than jacked. A 31.5 degree 7-iron and a 45 degree pitching wedge put this in reasonable territory for a players cavity, so you keep sensible gapping and you are not fighting to stop a wedge that flies like an 8-iron. This is an iron for a mid handicapper who wants help but does not want to give up feel or the option to work the ball.
要点
The PXG 0311 GEN3 (2020) is a players cavity that adds forgiveness without much extra size. The set runs 4-iron to PW with a 31.5° 7-iron. It carries a $595 MSRP.

テクノロジー
About the PXG 0311 GEN3
The head is forged from soft carbon steel and built as a hollow body, with PXG's XCOR polymer filling the cavity behind a thin face. That polymer supports the face at impact so it can flex for speed while still feeling solid, and it kills the hollow, clicky sound that thin-faced irons can produce. Tungsten weighting sits low and toward the perimeter to push the center of gravity down and add stability on misses. Compared to the GEN2, the GEN3 loses the external adjustable weights in favor of a sealed, cleaner sole and back. The face is thinner than most players cavities, which is where the extra ball speed comes from. It is a lot of engineering packed into a head that, from the top, looks like a straightforward forged iron.
ロフト分析
The PXG 0311 GEN3's 7-iron is lofted at 31.5° - near-traditional - close to the classic 32-34° benchmark. For a golfer with an 85-95 mph swing speed, this projects to a 7-iron carry of approximately 145-155 yards. The 5-iron (24°) to 7-iron gap of 7.5° is spread across a wide range, which may create overlapping distance windows with similarly lofted fairway woods or hybrids. The pitching wedge at 45° provides a conventional loft window that pairs cleanly with a 50-52° gap wedge.
Who Should Play the PXG 0311 GEN3?
- ✓Mid handicappers who want distance and forgiveness without a chunky, offset-heavy shape at address
- ✓Players moving down from a game improvement iron who still want the option to shape shots
- ✓Golfers who prioritize soft feel and a quiet sound and are willing to pay a premium for it
- ✓Anyone who liked earlier PXG irons but wanted a cleaner look without the visible weight screws
よくある質問
Are the PXG 0311 GEN3 irons worth the price?
PXG irons cost more than most competitors, and the 0311 GEN3 is no exception. What you pay for is the forged hollow body, the XCOR polymer core, and the tungsten weighting, plus PXG's fitting process. The performance is genuinely good, but you can find similar ball speed and forgiveness from other brands for less. If soft feel and the clean GEN3 look matter to you, the price is easier to justify. If you just want distance and forgiveness, cheaper options exist.
What handicap are the 0311 GEN3 irons made for?
This is a players cavity, so it fits roughly a 5 to 18 handicap. Better players choose it for the feel and the workability, while higher handicappers get the forgiveness of the hollow body and low tungsten weighting. If you need maximum help, the 0311 XP is the more forgiving option in the same GEN3 lineup.
How is the 0311 GEN3 different from the previous GEN2 irons?
The biggest change is the look. GEN3 removed the external adjustable weight screws that GEN1 and GEN2 had and moved to internal tungsten with a sealed back and sole. PXG also switched to the XCOR polymer core, which supports the thin face for more ball speed and a more solid feel than the earlier polymer. The head shape is cleaner and less busy overall.
Are the 0311 GEN3 lofts strong?
They are moderate, not aggressively jacked. The 7-iron is 31.5 degrees and the pitching wedge is 45 degrees, with consistent four to four-and-a-half degree gaps between clubs. That is stronger than a pure blade but weaker than most game improvement irons, so you keep reasonable launch and stopping power while still getting some added distance.
Do the 0311 GEN3 irons feel soft even though they are hollow?
Yes. The forged body and the XCOR polymer filling the head give it a soft, muted impact rather than the hollow, clicky sensation some thin-faced irons have. The polymer supports the face and dampens vibration, so misses feel less harsh and center strikes feel solid without being dead.
