PXG has paid lots of attention to the playability of the new 0311 GEN7 irons meaning making irons with stress on a balance of forgiveness and workability. Weighting is towards the perimeter and the toe plus a weight placed inside a titanium collar in the center of the iron’s back. During a fitting it can be adjusted to the proper swing weight plus it helps precisely locate the head’s center of gravity.
The differences between the P and XP models are mostly apparent in the head size, the game-improvement XP being larger plus it has more offset than the players model P.
