TOUR FEEDBACK WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW
When it comes to the PXG Black Ops fairway woods and hybrids, the story remains much the same as the drivers thanks to a new proprietary high-strength steel face material that allows for a 12.5 percent thinner face construction to help boost ball speeds, increase launch, lower spin and save precious grams to help increase forgiveness.

The PXG engineers also got creative with the hybrids design to fit such a wide variety of golfers, and the Black Ops goes from a 17-degree 2-iron replacement down to a 31-degree. The profile shifts through the lofts to help blend through the bag and can be custom-built to fit any player.
“I’m enjoying the new Black Ops hybrids, and my initial reaction is that they have a softer feel and are nice and forgiving,” said major champ Celine Boutier. “The heads are a little bigger than the previous model, which gives me that extra bit of confidence.”

PLAYER TESTING TAKEAWAYS
“Great in every category. Solid feel. I hit a variety of shots and all were straight. Very long and great ball speed. Clean looks inspire confidence. Easy distance without having to work too hard. The club accelerates through impact on its own.” — Robert Resnik (8 handicap)
“Odd-looking, like there’s an extra groove. Chunky. Responsive and easy to hit, even if off-center. I’d buy it.” — Mike Parziale (6-10 handicap)
“Clean looking and not too busy. Felt good and traveled.” — David Carroll (7 handicap)
