Which ZX is perfect for you?

Srixon used machine learning to create more ball speed across the faces of their ZX Irons. But which ZX is the best option for you: the ZX4 or the ZX5? Keep reading to find out.

How they’re the same

Both the ZX4 and ZX5 Irons made it onto the 2021 Golf Digest Hot List and Golf WRX Best Irons list. And it’s not surprising when you look at the technology they share.

Srixon’s A.I.-designed MainFrame face has grooves, channels and cavities milled into it that generate faster ball speed across the face. So even when you stray off-centre at impact, you aren’t straying into the rough or short of the green.

The progressive face design through the ZX Iron sets gives you better launch and distance with your #3 through #7-irons, while adding spin and stopping power on scoring shots into the green with your #8-iron through PW.

How they differ

The ZX4 has the widest sole, longest blade, and most offset in the ZX family. This makes it a lot easier to square at impact and hit consistently well. And what’s so impressive about this game-improvement iron is that it still offers a good-looking, clean address profile.

The ZX5 is a more ‘tightly packed’ iron than the ZX4. It has a thinner topline, slightly shorter blade, narrower sole and a bit less offset than the ZX4. These features offer great distance gains to golfers who make more consistent impact.

So, which one’s best for you?

If you want the most forgiveness possible in a ZX Iron, giving you easy access to distance and amazing feel, then the ZX4 is your go-to.

For those that have better levels of control but are looking for higher launch and lower spin for extra distance, the ZX5 is the one to go with.

By finding the point in your set where launch breaks down, we can create a combo set of ZX Irons that gives you help where you need it most.

Take full advantage

Remember, you’re losing any added forgiveness, control and distance that either of these irons offer if the lie angle and shaft aren’t right for you. To get the most out of new technology, a fitting is so important.
