One cast, one forged, both PXG. The question is, what makes them different, and why might you choose one over the other? There's only one way to find out, let's go out in the golf course and put these together in a head-to-head PXG vs PXG. I think first of all there's nobody that could have bought the sort of gen three irons and be concerned about there's too many similarities with the 0-2-1-1. There is a big price difference that we're going to talk about, but there's very much a difference in how these things look aesthetically, and I think you can see the difference also in terms of what you've paid your additional money for. And I think that's important, like I said, for anybody who's going to stretch to this higher price point, you need to see those difference. But that said, starting with the 0-2-1-1, it's a brushed satin finish, I suppose you'd call it, as a profile, very much minimalistic, apart in terms of markings, apart from this strip across the back that displays a PXG logo and the 0-2-1-1. In my opinion, if there's something they can do better, if there's going to be a version two of this model, I think they can improve on that. It's the one thing that just slightly lets it down, is that markings across the back. It's not something that is majorly a problem, but I think for me it's something they could look to improve. But in terms of the profile of the club, again, I mentioned it in previous reviews, lovely the way it's chamfered around the edges. Again, that attempt to make that top line look that bit thinner by, again, like I just said, chamfering off that top line, really good at addressing. It's a slightly longer profile, again, and we'll come to that when I talk about this Gen 3 now. It's a much more compact head on the Gen 3. It's a much more meatier profile, is what I would say. The perimeter weighting, I think I've said again, is something that I think is a very much iconic now look of PXGs, and I love it. I love the nuts and bolts of it, and I think it looks really, it's industrial, it's aggressive, it's very much that sort of darkness theme, and I like it. But again, that extra milling across the back of the club face. I don't know how much it impacts on performance, very little I would imagine, but in terms of visually it looks absolutely stunning. The top line, again, they do exactly the same thing, chamfer off those sort of top lines, so it looks and appears to be that slightly thinner version, and perhaps what it is. But what I will say is this, you can see the differences, and I think that's key, like I said, for anybody who's paid that additional money, it's key that you recognise what you've paid for. That's recognisable, but they're both very, very good looking clubs in their own right. Next up is how they feel.  And I'm going to start off with the 0211. I'm going to tear this up off a bit of turf. You've seen this old quad a lot. It's hole number 12, a par 5, and it's certainly not an iron off the tee, but it is today. Again, just that little cut off the left hand side, and that's going to come right back into the middle of the fairway. More than happy with that. In terms of feel on the 211, it's the biggest thing that baffles me to date, and I've said it in the reviews again previously. What PXG did with the Cast Club is do something with the acoustics and a feel that I've not seen before. And like I said, that's the biggest, the most impressive part, I think, for me, the 211s. So from a sound feel perspective, it's a massive thumbs up. I'll be scoring these both at the end in terms of a head-to-head scoring, and you'll see what I decide to give it out of my marker 10. But all I can say is that, like I said, really defies the sort of cast makeup, and how it sounds and feels is superb. No questions asked. So switch up to the Gen 3 iron, and again, different materials. It's a forged head, so we're expecting to feel a difference, and to feel that sort of more buttery, soft feel. Tough act to follow with that iron that's just gone into the middle of the fairway. That's another solid ball, slightly less cut. It's going to end up not too dissimilar in terms of where it's landed. What's happened there is those balls have pretty much done what they do in dry ball data, and there's nothing to separate them. In terms of feel, it is softer. There's no doubt about it. For me, you can feel that forged difference. I still believe that's there. However good that cast feeling and sound is, there is that noticeable change when you move up to the forged head. Right, so time for some dry ball data, and this is where we're going to look at separating clubs when we're doing head-to-heads, in terms of where the sort of performance benefits might come. I think it's very simple. The numbers in terms, the loft on these clubs is identical, by the way. And in terms of the dry ball data, unbelievable how similar they were in terms of their performance. So, kind of like ball speeds, launch angles, they're all very, very similar in carry distances again. Obviously very, very similar indeed. The one thing that really stood the Gen 3 apart was the spin number. And again, could be down to the variables in strike. I don't know, but for me that was the only thing that I've seen that was noticeably different. A slightly better spin number, but for me, I don't think it's going to make that much of a difference when you're out here on the course, you know my opinion on spin when applied to average golfers, and that difference in RPM that you see. I don't think it's going to have a major impact in terms of real-time performance out on the golf course. So for me, very little to split them in terms of dry ball data. Right out here on the course, I've brought a 6-9 is what you see me tee off with, in case anybody was wondering, and I've also got 9-9 with me. I mean, I've played both sets of clubs for a great deal of time, so in terms of my overall opinion at the end, it'll be based on the full set rather than just these couple of clubs. Right, so sort of interesting position here, we're just shy of 100 out and we're downwind. Really interesting to see what this does. Sit. Right. That was a 9-9. You've seen the spin number that we got in the dry ball data. That to me would suggest it's a fairly low spinning club and we might have issues. Trust me, I don't know whether you can see down the flag, we're playing downwind on a Lynx burnt track really dry. I know you picked that up in terms of what we've got. I think we've got the other camera there which should have seen how that ball came to rest. Now to me once again, and we're playing a half shot, you ain't going to get as much spin on it anyway. Downwind, I mean come on, when are we going? I'm going to start petitioning you know that average golfers need to stop worrying about dry ball data that says spin number is low. It baffles me. There's another one. See what this thing does. I rest my case, but I think I give up. Spin number is overrated. End of story. Now if you're new to my channel then I am the average golfer and be aware I don't hit 300 yard drives there, I'm not the best player in the world.

We've been through every possible element that we can in terms of review. I'm going to throw as I've done in recent the new review sort of format. I'm going to put in these heads to heads a bit of a score up that you can see now. You see there's very little to split them in terms of both on-course dry ball data, looks and feel. There is a definite sway towards a Gen 3. Price point is a massive switch towards the 2-1-1s. But like I said they score very well in different departments but ultimately very little to split them. Dry ball data like I said almost identical. A bit better spin number in terms of the Gen 3. Sound and feel Gen 3 like I said is without doubt better. It's kind of like it's a buttery soft feel where maybe 0-2-1-1s just not quite as good. They're a cast club at the end of the day as good as the job they've done. It's not that butter soft feel that's in the Gen 3s. When you come down to the price, the only thing I'd ask you to remember is that if you're looking at different shaft options there's far more options available at the cost, at the included cost in the Gen 3. And there's a more limited range in terms of the 0-2-1-1 in terms of the standard cost. Obviously you can pay for upgrades. So that's something to bear in mind. Ultimately the review is sort of very simple and straightforward in terms of an evaluation. It's all down to what you look for specifically in terms of that feel. In terms of which you like, in terms of the looks. I will say 2-1-1 if there is a second version of these. I think that's just sort of strip across the back could be improved on it. It would enhance their sort of quality appeal quite significantly. The Gen 3 again you can see aesthetically there's a lot of attention to detail gone on there. But they're not differences that would appeal to a lot of golfers. So it's down to that budget thing. If you've got unlimited budget you choose the Gen 3s. But valuable money bang for your book the 2-1-1 is very hard to beat indeed. So that's it. Importantly that's my opinion. An important thing is you go out there you try them yourself. That's the only opinion that matters. Hopefully COVID restrictions are lifting a bit. Things to get back to normal. Conwy is absolutely superb right now.
