Scottsdale, AZ (Nov. 14, 2024) – For golfers navigating sun-soaked desert landscapes, the occasional wayward shot can present more than just a challenge; it can lead to what’s affectionately known as “desert rash.” This frustrating phenomenon results from hitting out of hazardous terrain and is characterized by unsightly scratches and gouges on one’s prized clubs.
Enter the new PXG Desert Golf ClubTM. Whether in a rocky pit, up against a cactus, or tangled in desert brush, this club is engineered to help golfers conquer adverse conditions while keeping their primary set pristine.
More than a rescue club, the PXG Desert Golf Club introduces a new category of equipment tailored specifically for those tricky situations where golfers are faced with a choice – take a drop or take some damage. With the loft of a pitching wedge and the length and weight of an 8-iron, this club gives golfers the confidence to decide to play it where it lies.
A longer shaft length (36.5’’) and lighter head helps support a faster swing and helps golfers hit it significantly further than a traditional pitching wedge. The higher lofted (44°) configuration enables golfers to choke up and hit chip-style shots to get the ball up and out of difficult lies. A versatile sole design with mid-bounce further enhances the club’s playability, allowing golfers to open and close the clubface easily.
Made from raw hardened 17-4 stainless steel, this club stands tall for its durability. This material is notably harder than the 8620 and 431 stainless steel bodies used in PXG’s primary irons and wedges and will better withstand scratches and wear in extreme conditions. The striking raw finish, coveted by many top players, is rust-resistant and can help produce high spin performance from various lies.
“We’ve all been there—you hit a stray drive, and suddenly you’re battling against the elements to salvage your shot,” PXG founder and desert dweller Bob Parsons said. “The PXG Desert Golf Club is your ‘Lord help me or God save the King’ recovery tool so you can play it where it lies without thinking twice about damaging your favorite club.”
The PXG Desert Golf Club is a great insurance policy for your marquee set or a fun and easy gift for a friend who frequently finds their ball off in the wild. It is also the perfect gift for a spouse who takes their game a little too seriously. We believe, even if the spouse or friend initially smiles and sets the PXG Desert Club aside, you’ll soon find it in their golf bag.
Priced at only $99.99, the PXG Desert Golf Club is immediately available in-store, online, and over the phone. Call 844.PLAY.PXG or visit www.PXG.com today to learn more.
