Has anyone laid eyes on the new Z irons? 

I have. I have seen everything except the blade that is supposed to come out a little after the rest. There is even a hollow body zx4 high handicap iron. Circa the launcher hb irons but with a bit more tech and class to them. 
 

I do like them. A lot. I turned my nose a bit at the  first images that appeared but once I saw them in hand i was very impressed..

Is the ZX4 forged?

Does this mean the ZX5 lost the channel back and sound of the Z585?

Sorry, I am not sure what you are talking about..

Do you know if the Zx4 will be released at the same time. I would love to have a beefier 5 iron with the rest of ZX5’s.

The previous iterations of 5 series have a channel back.....slotted without being through slot like taylormade long irons.....has more of crack tone to it vs solid feel/sound of the 7 series

Gotcha. There is for sure some channel behind the face to the 5s. I would say it is similar to the mizuno forged irons that way.

Anyone have pics of the ZX4? 

[Danimal269]

I guess I will keep my eyes peeled on the UK Srixon site to see what is offered. I would think that if the ZX4’s were going to be released at the same time we would have seen them by now. I bet they are being released when the ZX Forged are released.

I'd love to know the difference in blade length between the zx7 and the z785. The 785 seemed a little long in the blade length to me. I'm hoping zx7 is a bit more compact. 

 

Same blade length as the 745 (so shorter than 785).  Toe height is the same as 785 to maintain higher MOI.

That is what I wanted to hear! I may purchase without testing.

Potentially. I don't know on that for sure. My gut tells me the 4s will be coming out as part of the mass release but I could be wrong.

Yeah, they also may have different release schedules for the UK and US. They may drop all of them at the same time here and do a staggered release in the UK. Not in any real rush but it is fun to be in the know.

Dumb question, but what is the ZX4?

This is from @QuigleyDU. I haven’t heard of them until he saw them.

Their most forgiving higher handicap focused iron of the release.

Interesting.  If they are forged, this could be a good hit metal alternative!

I am honestly not 100% sure if they are forged or not.

Thanks for that info! That sounds absolutely perfect!

I would think that there is an undercut cavity geometry to them but with a badging that fills the space to make it less visible.  Kind of like comparing the Mizuno JPX 850/900 forged to current ones where you could previously see the undercut, now the badging is wide enough to fill in this space.

Has it been confirmed for sure if these will release in the US this year?

He kept saying how great they feel and look. I just take all the reviews with a grain of salt. It’s between the 7’s and 770’s for me.

Exactly what im doing. Got my 770s in and loving the high ball flight.  I did lose about 5yrds compared to my MP20 MMCs. Cant wait to try the 7s.

What does forged even mean these days... Forged face seems to be enough for many manufacturers. Some drivers do have forged faces lol

Many so-called forged clubs feel just the same as cast clubs or even firmer if you take i210 or iBlade as the compared cast irons.

It seems to have come to mean that some portion of the clubhead is forged.
