The Srixon ZXi driver is generating buzz in the golf community, with an elite ball speed, great sound and feel, and impressive forgiveness. This driver has the potential to help Srixon break through in the woods market, as indicated by the increased interest from golfers in demoing the new Srixon drivers.
The appearance of the Srixon ZXi driver is sleek and traditional, with a well-shaped design and a unique Y-shaped alignment aid on the crown. The gloss black center of the sole and detailed geometric designs add a visually appealing touch to the driver, making it stand out in the bag. The headcover features Srixon’s signature red, white, and black color scheme, with a convenient handle for easy removal.
The Srixon ZXi driver delivers an impressive sound and feel upon impact, with a mid-volume “crack” and a sensation of tremendous speed without sacrificing feel. The feedback on impact location is clear, with a consistent sound on reasonable contact and a slightly louder noise on mishits towards the edges of the face. Overall, the ZXi provides a pleasing feedback experience for golfers.
Performance-wise, the Srixon ZXi driver shines with elite ball speed and strong forgiveness on mishits. The i-Flex face design allows for thinner center face thickness, contributing to the club’s exceptional ball speed even on off-center strikes. The driver also offers straight and controlled ball flights, with minimal curve on shots and the ability to hit fades and draws with confidence.
In terms of adjustability, the Srixon ZXi driver features two modes for customization. The hosel adjustment allows for changes in loft, lie angle, and face angle, while the weights at the back fine-tune direction and swing weight. The driver comes with 10 gram and 4 gram weights, with additional weight options available for further customization. While the weights can impact ball flight on good strikes, they may not fully correct a significant slice or hook.
The Srixon ZXi driver comes equipped with a stock Fujikura Ventus TR Blue shaft, which delivers solid performance out of the box. Additionally, Srixon offers a range of shaft options from top brands like Mitsubishi, Aldila, and Project X, providing golfers with the flexibility to choose a shaft that suits their preferences without an upcharge. Overall, the Srixon ZXi driver is a total package, combining elite performance, adjustability, and customization options for golfers looking to improve their game on the tee. With its impressive features and performance, the Srixon ZXi driver is poised to make a significant impact in the woods market and compete with other top drivers available.
