The PXG 0311 GEN8 irons are new for 2025 after being unveiled as the eighth generation of the hugely popular model.
Social media leaks of the latest design were revealed in late 2025 with the GEN8 irons set to be a huge success in 2026 as the upgraded version of PXG’s leading iron.
The 0311 GEN7 irons have been popular since first appearing in 2024 and the GEN8 is set to build upon previous generations, offering forgiveness, distance and high launch characteristics.
No specific details about the design changes or models have been revealed, or the new technologies or specs. We will keep you updated with all of the key information as they launch along with the new PXG Lightning drivers for 2026.
PXG 0311 GEN8 Irons Specs & Design
The GEN8 0311 irons are the successor to the GEN7 model with PXG’s latest design featuring a notable tweak to the weights in the clubhead.
While the GEN7 irons had one central rear weight, the images of the GEN8 version shows two tungsten weights – one in the toe and one in the heel positions.
The design tweaks are likely to be aimed at improving distance, forgiveness, feel and overall playability compared to previous generations.
PXG irons are known for their high Moment of Inertia (MOI) and the further strategic internal weighting changes will enhance forgiveness by maintaining ball speeds, particularly on off-center strikes.
Once again, the 0311 GEN8 is built upon PXG’s legacy of using premium materials including ultra-thin Maraging steel face for high ball speed and distance.
The new GEN8 irons are also expected to feature a dual cavity design seen in previous models as well as the QuantumCOR technology that was introduced in the previous generation.
The GEN8 irons are available in standard and black clubhead versions, although the specific of the models and the specs are not available yet.
PXG 0311 GEN8 Irons Review: Are they any good?
PXG don’t do bad irons and the GEN8 model is set to build on the impressive characteristics of the seven generations that have come and gone.
The 2025 launch shows a tweaked design, most notably around the rear tungsten weights, which appears to be aimed at adding more forgiveness to the model.
The 0311 GEN8 irons are set to add incremental gains in distance, playability and ball striking and we look forward to getting our hands on the new model.
