SRIXON 765 Initial thoughts and pics!

[LHGolf4]

Good to hear they performed well. I am also glad that they will be making these in left hand, I will definitely try these out.

Just ordered 765 G-6 and the 5 in 565. Nippon 105 shafts. 565 line is to bulky for me to look at but had no problem with the 5 iron and it's numbers where to good to pass up. Flushed the 765 6 iron otherwise I would've maybe snuck that in the bag too. Gaming Ping I e's now but the Strixon's looked and felt much better. Only one session but the 765 6 iron was going further then my ping 6. I wasn't looking to change irons but the look feel and performance of the Strixon's couldn't be ignored.

Anyone with comparison pics to the 745's?

[DartBrigade]

Has anyone hit these and the 745s? Debating ordering these or just picking up old 745s at the discount if they're not that different....

[Russ757]

I haven't held the 65s, but I've used the 45s for a while. If you hit towards the toe, or if the 745s offset bothers you, the 65s might be the way to go. They're also a bit thinner on the top line. I can't really see how much better then can be than its older brother..

 

 

I've had the 65s in my cart numerous times and those are the reasons I can't pull the plug

[ALTSean]

Do the 65s have more tungsten toe weighting than the 45s? Is so, how much more?

[Hellsing]

mtex22,

 

Congrats on the new irons. They look great. Quick question. Did you play the J15 CBs? And if so how do they compare? Thanks.

[markheardjr]

If people would choose on performance and looks; Srixon will be huge. But they need to still establish their brand here for equipment.

These look great! I agree that the stock shaft and grip are great moves. They should also follow what they did prior and keep a no upcharge list of shafts.

From the pics they just look to have a little more toe weight, a little more chrome and visually toned down VT sole. I can't wait to hit them to compare to my 45s and check out the new RTX wedges.

You can get any steel shaft at no up charge! This was confirmed by Srixon on Twitter

 

Yeah, I priced out a few sets with KBS FLT, PX LZ, DG AMT, and DG Tour Issue and the prices didn't change. Nice touch by Srixon.

I take it no Oban steel or Shimada? haha.

[ZBigStick]

 

Woah, no upcharge on Tour Issues? That's an impressive list with many new shafts.

Any list of graphite or other up charge shafts for Srixon 2017?

[MtlJeff]

These look sexy as F....i wish i didn't love my current irons as much as i do

[Doc420]

Held these clubs today. The only real difference you notice would be the muscle is now flipped out on the toe. Iooking side by side you might notice changes with the 745s, but not much. I'm curious if there is much difference between the two.

[cz13X4]

impressive list of no charge options.....i could see me using these

[DatSliceDoe]

Now that is the kind of no upcharge list that many brands should have for the price they ask for an otr set, let alone custom. Hats off to Srixon.

I played the j15CB's with DG Pro for a while and I would say as long as the J15's but lower ball flight and tighter dispersion for me. I really like the long irons. Again I absolutely nutted a 5 iron today further than I ever have. Different feel more dense. Both excellent heads and you can't go wrong. I just wanted Modus 120 and they came stock in these so no brainer.

 

Anyone try the new woods? Z565/Z765 or Z765 limited drivers

[dan040286]

I thought the 765's had more offset than the 745s. Can anyone confirm what the visual differences should be?

How are you liking the Modus 120s? I have them in the 745s in X and the combo feels so explosive.

[BearQ]

Just need to move my J15CB for a reasonable price. Mostly because I want to get away from C-Tapers, my elbow will thank me.

 

I am considering:

Makeup: 765 4-9 / 965 PW -- prefer a bladed pitching wedge

Shaft: PX LZ 6.5 (Hard-Stepped)

Agreed the modus have a nice kick to them and paired with this head can produce some amazing feel/performing shots. Awesome combo!! Nice stock shaft offering Srixon!! Now what wedges and woods?

[Sir edward of putternut]

How easy and forgiving are the 3 and 4 irons?

 

If they are anything like the 945 3 and 4 iron, I consider them the easiest long irons I've ever played. I kicked my cally apex hybrid 4 out of the bag but kept the sldr 3 since it has become my wood on most courses.

Haven't hit the 7s, but the 9s are just top tier in that regard

Sweet!! Sign me up for a 51

[TexasCarlos]

They look so nice !!! I wish I would have waited but settled on the 945s love the feel and look, 965 down the road for me I'm sure haha

[mtex22]

Got some wedges to try as well :busted_cop:

[tyro]

They remind me of my old Tourstage CB's. I might have to try a set of these when I get a chance. If they are an improvement on the 745, they should be impressive clubs.

[mtex22]

Still loving my 765's!! So solid

[mukster]

Got an email JUST before I left the office to go golf this afternoon. Stopped in at the post office and picked up my set of 5-P 765s. Went straight to the course and hit about 5 balls on the range before putting them into play. Had a rough round with the driver and putter today, but REALLY enjoyed the irons!

I used to use a 5 iron for my 180 yard shots. My MP 32s were shorter and I was having to use a 4 iron to get that distance. On the 18th par 4, I hit a bad drive right onto a little hilly lie in the crappy rough/bare ground. I was left with 175 yards over a bunker, then a long pond that stretches about 100 yards, followed by another bunker in front of the green. Launched a 5 iron and actually put it over the back of the green.

Lofts are stronger than my MP32s. Still they give great confidence at address, and feel great when you nut one. I mishit two shots and had only a little loss of distance.

Can't wait to go practice with them and then play again. Oh, and they are sexy!

Love the post office straight to the course!! My favorite thing to do lol

 

I agree I too have hit some absolute tattooed long irons with these things. The long irons really shine in this set!!

[J_Birdie]

Those cleveland wedges look sick

 

do they perform accordingly as sick as they look

[Peanut191]

Looks like the AW in the 565 matches the set, but the 765 looks more blade like than the rest of the set. Seems like they did the same thing with the 745's on the AW. Can anyone comment on whether there is actually that much difference between the 745 AW and the rest of the set?

 

Also, for anyone that has owned the 745's and tried out the 765's, have you noticed any difference in turf interaction between the two? (curious about the newer VT sole difference)
