Srixon ZX5/ZX7
ZX5: 3-PW; ZX7: 3-PW
Our take: When we see and try an iron that combines the soft feel of a forged iron with the added distance and forgiveness of a multi-material construction, we get all giddy inside. According to a club tester talking about the ZX, “I felt like I mishit a few, but you’d never know it by the ample amount of forgiveness. They aren’t far off from the set I normally play, but with a lot more give.”
The details: The multi-piece construction combines tungsten toe weights with a forged carbon-steel body, resulting in optimal weighting and better vibration dampening and control. There are two models here to choose from — the ZX5 and ZX7. The ZX5 has a wider sole and a slightly longer profile for more stability and forgiveness, while the ZX7 is more compact and has a thinner topline for enhanced shotmaking versatility. Mixed sets are available if you want the best of both worlds.
Where to buy it: Click here for the ZX5, or here for the ZX7. Or better yet, get fit for the driver by the experts at our sister company, True Spec Golf.
