PXG Launches Lightning Metalwoods With Frequency-Tuned Drivers in Four Models

The new line leans on vibration‑mode engineering to align face response with ball compression for more efficient energy transfer.

Overview

  • PXG introduced Lightning drivers, fairway woods, and hybrids, positioning the drivers at $649 and Lightning fairway woods at $379.
  • The drivers feature a Frequency Tuned Face derived from modal analysis, a spined carbon sole, expanded carbon footprint, movable weights, and an adjustable hosel.
  • The lineup includes Tour, Tour Mid, Max‑10K+ and Max Lite drivers, with Max‑10K+ pushing MOI near the USGA limit while retaining adjustability and Max Lite coming in 14 grams lighter for added clubhead speed.
  • PXG cites a new laser‑etched face pattern for more consistent spin in varying conditions, while pros Christiaan Bezuidenhout and Céline Boutier report speed, stability, and confidence gains.
  • Lightning fairway woods offer standard and Tour heads with thinner faces, carbon crowns, and weight ports to tune draw, fade, launch, and spin for a fitter‑driven setup.
