Lofts compared
- 0211 DC
- 0311 P GEN4
What the differences mean
At the 7-iron, the 0211 DC is 28° and the 0311 P GEN4 is 30°, a 2° gap. Each degree of loft is worth roughly 3 to 4 yards of carry at the same swing speed, so the 0211 DC should carry roughly 6 to 8 yards further with that club, on a slightly lower, shallower flight than the 0311 P GEN4. Across the 8 clubs both sets share, the 0311 P GEN4 averages 1.8° weaker, with the largest gap at the 5-iron (21° vs 23°). The pitching wedges are 42° and 44°; the stronger one leaves a 8° jump to a 50° gap wedge, which matters when planning wedge gapping. Beyond loft, the 0211 DC 7-iron sits 0.5° flatter (62° vs 62.5°), which nudges start direction slightly right for a right-hander; the 0211 DC 7-iron is 0.5 inches longer (37.5" vs 37").
The sets are built differently: the 0211 DC runs 4-iron to LW (10 clubs), the 0311 P GEN4 3-iron to GW (9 clubs).
Both are players distance irons, built for roughly 5 to 15 handicaps who want extra distance from a compact head. Forged or multi-material heads that keep a compact look while adding face technology and stronger lofts for distance. Because they target the same golfer, the decision comes down to the specific loft, feel and shaping differences rather than who the sets are made for.
The 0211 DC is listed as cast hollow body with a DualCOR dual-polymer core and the 0311 P GEN4 as forged hollow body with an XCOR core. Forging, as in the 0311 P GEN4, is generally credited with a softer feel; casting, as in the 0211 DC, allows more complex cavity and weighting shapes, which is why it dominates forgiving irons. Both use hollow-body heads, so both trade a little feel for face flex and launch help.
Both sets were introduced in 2021, so this is a choice between two models from the same lineup rather than an upgrade: PXG designed them to sit side by side for different players.
Which should you choose?
The 0311 P GEN4 is the weaker-lofted set — up to 2° weaker than the 0211 DC. That trades raw distance for a steeper landing angle and more predictable stopping power into greens.

Frequently asked questions
Is the PXG 0211 DC stronger lofted than the 0311 P GEN4?
Yes. The PXG 0211 DC 7-iron is 28° against 30° for the 0311 P GEN4, 2° stronger, which is worth roughly 6 to 8 yards of extra carry with the same swing.
What is the loft difference between the PXG 0211 DC and 0311 P GEN4?
At the 7-iron the difference is 2° (28° vs 30°). The largest gap on a shared club is 2° at the 5-iron, and all 8 shared clubs differ.
Are the PXG 0211 DC and 0311 P GEN4 aimed at the same golfer?
Yes. Both are players distance irons, built for roughly 5 to 15 handicaps who want extra distance from a compact head. Choose on feel, looks and gapping, ideally after hitting both.
Do the PXG 0211 DC and 0311 P GEN4 have the same lie and length?
Not exactly. At the 7-iron the PXG 0211 DC is 62° lie and 37.5 inches, the 0311 P GEN4 62.5° and 37 inches. Both can be bent or built to your own fit.
