PXG Black Ops Drivers are the most advanced model yet with the promise of big distance gains. The range features Black Ops, Tour-1 and now Ultra Lite drivers.
Replacing the PXG 0311 GEN6 drivers as the premium model, PXG believe they have found a new breakthrough in golf club engineering.
The Black Ops drivers achieved 10K MOI for the first time in a PXG model and join fellow newcomers the Qi10 drivers and Ping G430 Max 10K in taking forgiveness to the next level.
The standard Black Ops and Tour-1 version launched in 2024 have now been joined by the Black Ops Ultra Lite, while there is also now the option to game the PXG Secret Weapon Mini Driver.
PXG Black Ops Driver Specs & Design
The Black Ops is the standard model and is PXG’s most forgiving driver yet with the chance to take the MOI to over 10K for the first time.
Designed for maximum forgiveness, three weight ports in the new driver allow the MOI to be taken to unchartered levels when positioned low and back.
An all-round performer, the Black Ops is high-launching, low-spinning and delivers seriously fast ball speeds thanks to the combination of technologies incorporated.
AMF technology is PXG’s new discovery with the high strength Titanium Alloy produce better energy transfer than ever before from across the face with consistent ball speed and improved distance regardless of where you strike from.
The black crown now consists of a high-grade carbon fiber composite material that is lighter than ever before, allowing PXG to shift weight, lower the CG and increase the forgiveness.
The larger club head inspired plenty of confidence at address and has also been shaped to help maintain explosive balls speeds even on off-center strikes.
The driver now features a non-uniform Bulge and Roll face design that also contributes to the forgiveness off the face and deliver a tight dispersion when it comes to accuracy.
PXG have also improved the sound and feel of the new release by fine-tuning the vibration.
The driver comes with two 2.5 weights and one 12.5g weight to adjust spin and shape bias. Those weights can be swapped up to 20g to create the 10K MOI promised.
The Black Ops model is sold in 8 degrees, 9 degrees, 10.5 degrees and 12 degrees lofts with three degrees of adjustability.
PXG Black Ops Tour-1 Driver Specs & Design
The Tour-1 model of the Black Ops range is the tour-level option and designed for golfers with fast swing speeds.
It boasts a more compact clubhead shape and profile than the standard model, has a deeper and taller face design and a more curved crown structure.
The Tour-1 delivers ultra-low spin and a lower ball flight for maximum distances, yet is also still very forgiving for a supreme combination.
This driver also features the new AMF technology, which has a high strength Titanium Alloy construction for better energy transfer from across the face and consistent distance regardless wherever you strike from.
The stylish black crown is crafted from a new lightweight high-grade carbon fiber composite material which has allowed weight to be distributed low for increased forgiveness.
The Tour-1 driver also have the non-uniform Bulge and Roll face design to help add to the forgiveness off the face, while the sound and feel has been fine-tuned.
The driver comes with two 2.5 weights and one 12.5g weight to adjust spin and shape bias. Those weights can be swapped up to 20g to create the 10K MOI promised.
The Black Ops Tour-1 model is sold in 8 degrees, 9 degrees and 10.5 degrees and is fully adjustable.
PXG Black Ops Ultra Lite Driver Specs & Design
PXG have added a lightweight version of their premium range of drivers to cater for more golfers than ever before.
PXG have come up with a lightweight design that includes clubhead mass of just 189 grams, which is 14 grams lighter than the standard PXG Black Ops Driver – and therefore ideal for slower-swing-speed golfers.
The adjustable sole weight, known officially as PXG’s Precision Weighting Technology, features a 12.5g weight as standard but that can be adjusted to leave an overall weight of between 179g and 196.5g.
The use of a composite body construction made from high-grade carbon fiber has also allowed PXG to keep weight down and distribute it better to increase MOI and optimize the center of gravity.
The Ultra Lite driver has AMF Technology incorporated with the Advanced Material Face Technology having a variable thickness design to deliver increased ball speed for more distance.
The titanium alloy used in AMF technology is more flexible than traditional materials, allowing for better energy transfer to the ball and added distance off the tee.
Forgiveness is improved thanks to the non-uniform bulge and roll face design with this PXG feature helping to maintain ball speeds on off-center hits.
The Ultra Lite driver is available in 10.5 degrees and 11.5 degrees loft options with three degrees of adjustability.
PXG Black Ops Drivers Review: Are they any good?
PXG have gone down the same route as Ping and TaylorMade and pushed the boundaries of forgiveness in this new release for 2024.
Drivers from PXG rarely fail to deliver and the Black Ops is now different. It really is the most forgiving model yet and the best thing is limiting the series to just two models this time around.
We found the Black Ops to be very long, accurate but significantly forgiving across the whole face. As far as all-round packages go, PXG have come up with a real cracker.
The addition of the Ultra Lite model in 2025 is smart move, aligning PXG with many of their rivals by offering an option to suit golfers with slow swing speeds.
