PXG 0211 Driver Review – Good for High Handicappers & Forgiving?

With the 0211 driver line, PXG sought to make their clubs more accessible to entry-level players. We tested it against other drivers and recorded our findings in the following overview.

The PXG 0211 Driver Family

PXG also launched the 0211 Z driver line which is intended for players with slower swing speeds in particular.

Everything about the 0211 Z driver was meant to be lightweight; from the carbon fiber crown to the two cavity ports inside the head.

The 0211 Z was certainly the faster driver when compared to the standard PXG 0211. It’s lighter and even has a sleeker design.

Is it Good for High Handicappers?

The PXG 0211 driver is a good club for high handicappers. You will not need a lot overly precise swinging in order to get good distance from the generous head size of this club.

The face is also made from an ultra-thin titanium alloy to promote fast ball speeds.

The PXG 0211 even has a good alignment system. There is a clear portion of the crown that is made from carbon fiber. This portion sits in the middle with the alignment marker placed dead-center in this carbon fiber panel.

It may seem like a small detail but this clearly visible delineation makes it easier to visually catch the center of the club head on your downswing.

Is it Forgiving?

The PXG 0211 driver is pretty forgiving overall. It has split mass weighting in the sole and in the back of the head to promote high launch and high MOI.

This driver will get your swing where it needs to be if you practice enough with it.

Difference Between the 0211 and the 0811

The PXG 0811 is definitely more in line with the clubs we have come to know PXG by.

The most remarkable aspects of this driver is the exceptionally low launch and low spin rates it produces thanks in part to the sloped crown design.

The biggest difference between the 0811 and the 0211 driver is performance. The 0211 is more forgiving and better for high handicappers.

Is the PXG 0211 Driver Worth it?

If you are a mid to high handicapper looking to invest in a driver that will serve you as your game improves, the PXG 0211 driver is definitely worth it.

PXG 0211 Driver

In 20 Words or Less

The PXG 0211 driver also features an adjustable hosel in a club that is a bit more forgiving than its 0811 counterpart.

PXG 0211 First Impressions

We were excited to see an adjustable hosel in what is essentially meant to be an entry-level PXG driver (if such a thing exists).

After the first swing, we were taken aback at how soft and smooth this driver felt. We credit this to the railed sole design which increase MOI but also adds stability by bracing the heel and toe.

The honeycombed polymer insert in the head doesn’t hurt either. Plus, the fact that you can shape shots better with the adjustable hosel actually makes this driver a great value.

PXG 0211 Selling Points

  • Exceptional MOI
  • Titanium alloy face
  • Adjustable hosel
  • Honeycomb polymer insert
  • Connective rails on the sole
  • Single heel-oriented weight port enhances forgiveness

PXG 0211 Driver – Who is it for?

The PXG 0211 driver is actually more forgiving than the 0811 so it would be more suitable for mid handicap players that need a little help with shot shaping.

We love the fact that PXG paired a high forgiveness driver with an adjustable hosel. While this driver still isn’t as forgiving as some Callaway and Taylormade entries, it is one of the most forgiving drivers that PXG has ever produced.

All in all we would say that this would be a suitable driver for a mid handicapper that already knows how to shape shots based on the nature of the hole.
