Founded in 2013 by Marine Corps veteran and entrepreneur Bob Parsons, Parsons Xtreme Golf (PXG) was born from a singular, obsessive mission: to create the world’s finest golf equipment, regardless of the cost or time required. Unlike traditional manufacturers, PXG operates without the constraints of typical product cycles, allowing their engineering team to focus exclusively on performance breakthroughs. This "no-limits" approach has resulted in nearly 900 global patents and a lineup of clubs – from drivers to putters – that are engineered to look like sleek blades while offering the incredible forgiveness and distance of a cavity back.Now, that elite performance has a new home in Westchester County.

Whether you are a "golf nut" like Bob Parsons or a newcomer to the game, the New Rochelle team is ready to provide the custom-fit experience that has made PXG a global phenomenon.Host Andrew spoke with Josh Greenly, the General Manager of PXG Westchester, about the brand's unique philosophy and the technology behind their high-performance equipment. Josh emphasized that PXG’s primary goal is to "make better golfers" by custom-fitting every piece of equipment to the individual amateur golfer's game, rather than relying on generic marketing pitches.
