Srixon's new Z785 driver


GolfWRX_Spotted

Recommended Posts

From what I have heard the last count was 7 tour players have them in the bag now. I might have to give one a shot.

 

Wow. That's a big uptick.

 

In the bag, or testing?

 

In the bag. There are more testing.

 

===========================

 

What's the word on it since it's been in the bag?

They seem to all love it. I would expect after the playoffs and guys have some more time to test that this will be in the bag of most Srixon Staff guys

Mine came in today, couldn't go to the range or play it's been raining like crazy here lately. It looks absolutely amazing, the project X black hand crafted feels great(swinging in the living room). My mind is set already it's kicking the epic sz out!

 

When did your order yours?

Could those who start receiving them please comment on how the driver sits at address. Particularly if it sits closed, open, etc in comparison to your current driver. Also how it looks if you loft down and open the face up. I'm not sure when I'm going to be able to go take a look at these and obviously the ho in me is wanting to blindly order one considering the Pro Orange 70 offering at no upcharge.

If I were to blind buy without a fitting and paying full retail, I think I'd lean toward this one over the new Titleists.

The hosel sits slightly deeper or further from the face than with some of the other drivers I’ve had... good look but as far as working with the face angle.. it seems to sit very square.. maybe a touch open with buldge and roll but very very solid looking head. I normally can’t stand anything that looks square... need it to look way open... but this one is A Ok for me... like the idea of being able to sling the ball if needed... so square would be almost ideal anyway as long as it looks good. Not closed. What I like the most is the shape of the head. The face is deep enough to almost give you the sense it’s a deep faced driver. Makes the hitting area seem large.

Ordered one yesterday with Pro Orange from DD est. shipping on 9/14 (along with the irons)

 

Folks seeing them now already so I am thinking we will have them in hand early next week typically before in store date

Got the email that mine shipped too but FedEx ground is super slow coming to the East Coast. Not looking like its going to get here for the weekend.

 

When did you order? Was it custom? Driver or irons?

Guys this driver is good, very good. Took it out after work today along with the epic sz. First off the Srixon beats the sz hands down absolutely no contest on looks. Feel they are very similar and sound they are extremely similar as well with the Srixon being just a tiny tiny amount more metallic sounding which I quite like. Now the course is extremely wet so I basically got no roll with either clubs so all distance was carry pretty much. The srixon beat the Callaway every hole not just distance but forgiveness as well. It truly blew my mind that a driver perform that well and be that forgiving. I was going to go to GG this weekend and get on a launch monitor but I feel no need now honestly the epic is going on BST. Go try it, thank me later.

Thanks for the update. Interested to hear more about forgiveness. Maybe not an issue with you since you are playing the subzero. Is the 785 playable for a mid handicapper? Anything else you can compare to, perhaps M2 or something of the sort?

I had a 2016 M2 and I couldn’t hit a fairway to save my life so I can’t comment on that. Honestly I can’t really compare to anything, before the sz I had the Nike vapor fly pro which isn’t very forgiving either. It just felt on bad strikes and bad swings I wasn’t punished nearly as much at the subzero.

I thought PO was$100 upcharge? Its free

 

Yep no charge. Pretty sure all of the shaft options are no charge which pretty much makes this driver the best deal going right now.

 

The sites I looked at had the PO listed as $100 upcharge.

Try looking at Srixon's site. That's where I looked.

 

Ha, you are right. So, if anyone is looking to order, go direct to Srixon. It has to be an error on their part. Every other site I've checked shows it as an upcharge.
