Srixon 2020 Irons ZX7, ZX5, ZX Utility

[Russ757]

I believe msrp for 565 were 1100 for 4-pw when they came out 

 

 

Preeeeeeeetty sure they weren't actually selling for that. Now, are srixon more popular since then? of course. Has the golf industry taken a yuge hit on profit due to Cvd? also yes. 

 

As far as I know, Mizuno had also been more or at least equivalent to srixon pricing.

 When I bought the 919 HMP I was choosing between them , the 919f and the 785. I choose the HMP because of offset over the 919f.  I really liked the 785, but I had always had mizuno so I stayed with it.  Now I really like the looks of the ZX7’s. I’ve seen the offset numbers and looks greater compared to HMP919. Is anyone else concerned about this? Should I just weaken the lofts? I love the Modus120s in my HMP , also love the Modus 125 in my T20 wedges; should I get a heavier Modus in ZX7? Thoughts?

Are we all in agreement that these are coming out in the spring and not this September?

Yeah, I got my Z765s (4-P) within a few months of release for under for $650.

Don’t think we’ll be buying these for under $100/club anytime soon if I had to guess...

They're out next month in Europe so don't see why it would be so much later for the US

I hope it’s in September and not the spring 

[ski350]

They’re in play for me (ZX5) I’d they’re available this fall. Else I’m going JPX921.....

[Russ757]

I'm gonna guess it'll be 1k for a 4-pw setup. At least that's what I'm banking on. I'll be going zx5 and the cbx2s cuz I currently and likely will continue to suck. 

 

And if they don't come out here till spring, there will still be ways to get them from overseas.

What is the shaft in the utility iron?

a couple of questions to answer there. I’ll answer from my standpoint... if I were to purchase the 785’s or x7’s, I would weaken them by 2-3 degrees because I like weaker lofted clubs. If you wanted to reduce offset, weakening the lofts would also help that aspect too. I’m not understanding why you would move out of the Modus 120’s... am I missing something here? The 120 stiff is 114 grams, the x is 120 and the tx is 126. No matter what stiffness profile, the 120 is very unique, if you love them, as I do, there is not a reason in the world to change that. The 125 wedge shaft is an absolutely fantastic shaft too. Good to have a bit more weight in the wedges. Good setup.  

[Caledonia07]

Thanks Mookie. I was thinking possibly more weight like x in 120 or another Modus would counter the offset as my miss is left. I like possibly weakening the lofts to do this. I mentioned the 125 in wedges to show success in something heavier than the 120s. My biggest gripe with the HMP is lack of spin to hold greens. I’m not saying I want to switch iron shafts, just threw it out there for more feedback. Thanks

I doubt it. It was back when Srixon was a well kept secret.

Love the look of the ZX7s

UST MAMIYA RECOIL 95 are the stock shaft.

[larciel]

I am currently gaming z745 so I really want to stay in Srixon family but with new p770 series, the game is OVA!

[Russ757]

Pretty decent review by crossfield on the differences

[davo32683]

Any leads on custom shaft lists?

[ski350]

Can anyone answer definitively when these will be available in the US?

[Puttersaurus Rex]

Ernie Els has the 7’s in his bag at Ozark National.  They look great!  

[ski350]

Someone just told me it would be months before we see these stateside.  Disappointing but there are other options I guess.  Don’t want to wait till 2021 

[Konklifer]

The only positive about golf season ending in the east in a couple month, you get time to make your next purchase. The ZX5/ZX7 is on the top of my list. I figure I'll see the new Ping iron offerings before the spring, which will allow me to make a better decision.

I like your perspective.  A transplant from AZ now living in MA I should consider this approach.....or order the JPX921’s on Monday when they start taking them ?

Edwin Watts salesman told me January for iron release in the US- but subject to change

Love my u65 2 iron....u85 couldn't knock it out of bag....any views on how the ZX utility compares?

thanks

 

[Konklifer]

What are the stock shaft offerings for the irons? Someone asked what the stock was in the utility and there was a reply that it was Recoil 95.

 

Is that the stock graphite shaft in the irons as well?

The stock are the modus 105 and 120

 

Now.. What are the other 'stock' shaft upgrades.. I haven't seen the official list. Would guess its similar to the 85 series

[anth]

The stock graphite shaft would probably be the Miyazaki.  But I’m sure the Recoil and the SteelFiber will be available for an upcharge

Everything thay I have seen says ZX5 has Mitsubishi Diamana ZX as the stock graphite. Recoil and SteelFiber available for upcharge.
