PXG 0211 putter line features five different putter models.All putters feature the new Runway Reticle alignment system.Putters are designed to support the higher-handicap golfer.
Today, PXG announced the addition of a line of putters to their budget-conscious 0211 golf club line. This new putter line is not a replacement for their Battle Ready putter line. Instead, these putters are targeting a new golf consumer, much like the 0211 line did with full-swing clubs.
Since their inception, PXG has done their own thing in the golf arena. Mr. Parsons has a vision of how he wants to run his golf company. He stays true to that vison, even if it means that PXG must challenge some of golf’s accepted norms. What I appreciate about their approach is that PXG is also willing to blow up even their own accepted norms.
Case in point: the PXG 0211 line. A company known for making some of the most expensive golf equipment in the business launched a line that is priced well below competitors’ prices. Turns out that the 0211 gear is pretty good, too. During Most Wanted testing, the 0211 driver put up solid numbers against drivers that cost hundreds of dollars more.
I think you can guess where we are headed today with the PXG 0211 putters. Like the other 0211 products, these are less expensive than the other PXG putters. More importantly, like the other 0211 products, these putters look poised to deliver when it comes to innovation and performance.

If you have been following these blogs for many years you will know that I have shared my research for the best golf swings. I’m hoping that you will discover the best swing fixes for your games (and my game too). All of my suggestions are provided by professional golf trainers or by offering the tips from the pros. Unfortunately I have also discovered that swing methods and tips from the pros may NOT be ideal for Weekend Warriors.
What the Pros have that Weekend Warriors Don’t
1/ The pros are in top physical condition so they don’t change their swing to accommodate weak arms or bellies or legs. They use their strength to power every perfect swing.
2/ The pros use hours of daily training both on the course and in the gym to build their muscle strength and memory for the perfect swing.
3/ Every pro has a slightly different back swing but they all deliver the same downswing for their draw, fade and straight shots. The direction of their swing at impact and the club face direction at the point of impact are ALWAYS CONSISTENT. That’s why you need to focus on impact and follow-through more than any other component of your swing.
The speed and direction of your takeaway should be personalized to help your hips rotate and to help your arms generate a proper wrist lag at the top of your swing. It doesn’t matter how fast you complete your backswing as long as you are in position for the perfect downswing. Your stance, your grip, your takeaway direction and the speed of your backswing can all be personalized.
Customize Your Backswing for Your Body
Your personal strength and your physical injuries are preventing you from creating the perfect swing of a 21 year old PGA Professional. Don’t try to generate the power and distance expected from a younger pro. Accept your limitations and focus on the perfect downswing and impact to a balanced finish.

The new Stability Tour 2 Polar shaft features the same construction as the successful Stability Tour putter shaft.The new white finish features enhanced durability.MSRP $299
Let’s check out the new Stability Tour 2 Polar putter shaft from Breakthrough Golf Technologies (BGT).
For those of you not in the know, BGT was founded by Barney Adams. Yes, that Barney Adams—the man who founded Adams Golf and who designed that Tight Lies fairway wood that many of you still have in your bag. How many times has your Tight Lies fairway delivered your round-saving shot?
This time around, Adams has a different shot in mind. Rather than giving you gear to get to the green, Breakthrough Golf Technologies develops gear to help you putt better once you are there. Specifically, their game is putter shafts.
While boutique putter shafts are moving into the mainstream these days, such was not the case when BGT launched the first incarnation of the Stability Shaft. Putter shafts were essentially an overlooked element. Sure, some companies had previously dipped their toes into the putter shaft pool but no one was truly swimming laps. Steel shafts were cheap and consumers (and maybe companies) thought they were as good as anything.
