Srixon

Why we like it
With many drivers, the discussion focuses endlessly on how thin and flexible the face is, but for this threesome from Srixon, a flexible face is just the beginning in the search for more distance. Rather than just one spring at impact, these drivers use a ribbon of flexing titanium around the perimeter of the face to create a second spring. The result is more power from more parts of the face. The three drivers here use that power in different ways thanks to the thin-titanium crown’s weight-saving lattice structure that leaves it no thicker than your business card.

ZX5 LS Mk II

• Larger profile (similar to ZX5) with more of a flattened crown shape.
• It launches lower with less spin compared to the standard ZX5.
• It also has a more neutral to slight-fade-biased ball flight.
• 8.5, 9.5, 10.5 degrees (with a 12-way adjustable hosel).

ZX5 Mk II

• The largest profile of any of the three heads in the family.
• A hint of a natural-draw bias is built into this shape.
• The deep centre of gravity should add loft to most tee shots.
• 9.5, 10.5 degrees (with a 12-way adjustable hosel).

ZX7 Mk II

• • It’s shorter front to back for players who prefer to work their tee shots.
• • The lowest launching of the three drivers in the family.
• • Weights for ports in the heel and toe allow players to tweak ball flight.
• • 9.5, 10.5 degrees (with a 12-way adjustable hosel).
