Photo Tour: Inside PXG’s new retail store in Chicago

Parsons Xtreme Golf, which started in Scottsdale, Arizona, has opened a new retail and fitting store in Northbrook, Illinois, about 25 miles outside of downtown Chicago.

Founder Bob Parsons, his wife Renee, PGA Tour staffers Zach Johnson, Billy Horschel, Charl Schwartzel, LPGA’s Gerina Piller, baseball legend Ozzie Guillen, current Chicago Bears NFL cornerback Kyle Fuller, and a number of other PXG Troops were on hand for the grand opening of the store on Thursday night.

Inside the store is PXG men’s and women’s golf apparel and accessories — including staff bags (around $675), golf shirts, t-shirts, ball markers, divot repair tools, towels, pullovers (around $275), hats ($35 and up), gloves and more, all made “in house” by PXG in Scottsdale — as well as walls stocked with putters, shafts and club heads. There’s a putting green, two fitting bays equipped with TrackMan, and a separate room with a build shop. While fitting appointments are available, they also accept walk-ins, according to the company.

GolfWRX was on site for the grand opening with a camera in-hand to give you the full tour. Here’s a few photos from the store below, but check out the forum thread for all of the photos and GolfWRX member discussion.

PXG is without question the best equipment in all of golf. Anybody in the business will tell you the same thing, usually “off the record” due to staff agreements with other companies. Anybody that disses PXG from a technology standpoint is simply uneducated about golf equipment as a whole. You can form your own opinion about the cost of the clubs. It is what it is but the product is that good.

  Thanks, Bob. Please tell us more about how none of your staff have won a major using these clubs.

  Why isn’t Tony Romo using them? Why isn’t every wealthy player at the Mid-Am and Senior Am using them then. They must be uneducated right?

    I saw a set of Homna irons in Hong Kong 15 years ago that were $54,000 then. Crazy expensive.

  Virtually all equipment meets the USGA requirements, and most equipment, in each category, will perform very close to each other. It really gets down to which club gives you the better personal feel, a positive appearance, and the results you want to achieve.

“… store in Northbrook, Illinois, about 25 miles outside of downtown Chicago.”
Why not a PXG store in Southside Chicago to introduce golf to the ghettos and help stop the shooting? Play golf not drugs!!!

So basically anyone who cannot afford PXG or products similar are going to be whining on this post.

  It isn’t about money. Most people I know with money have make smart business decisions. Paying triple $ for equipment that isn’t of any improvement over a set of quality Mizuno’s isn’t how those people got to where they are. In fact, the only person I know with PXG golf equipment is a terrible golfer and broke his budget to acquire them.

Do they charge for entry? I’m serious. May as well, only a fool would pay full retail for these.

Testing Lorem Ipsum

Published

What is Lorem Ipsum?

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry’s standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.

Why do we use it?

It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using ‘Content here, content here’, making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for ‘lorem ipsum’ will uncover many web sites still in their infancy. Various versions have evolved over the years, sometimes by accident, sometimes on purpose (injected humour and the like).

GolfWRX is on site for the second major of 2026: The PGA Championship from Aronimink in Newtown Square, Pennsylvania.

The tournament’s location, just outside Philadelphia, and its status as a major championship mean GolfWRXers are in for a treat: WITBs from a strong field, custom gear celebrating the PGA Championship, and the rich culture of the City of Brotherly Love — we have noted a relative absence of cheesesteak-themed items thus far this week, but most of the rest of the usual suspects are well represented.
