Mine is due to ship mid April....but that also has a lot to do with the GD shaft I ordered.
 

My irons already shipped. 

I don't know, but I can't imagine a better club than last cycle's Z u85. Can be had cheap right now.

Talked to customer service today.  It’s looking like ~5 weeks for me from order to delivery.  Details below for those who are curious. 
 

Ordered through a local fitter on 2/10.   LEFTY ZX5 4-7 ZX7 8-P, Recoil 95 F4, GP MCC midsize. 
 

Srixon rep said Recoils were back ordered til 3/8 and that I should expect them to be built that week and shipping week of 3/15. 
 

Was originally quoted 4 weeks so doesn’t seem too bad considering some of the other posters here.

Update for my order:

 

Recap: ordered 1/9. Was quoted 4 weeks. Set of 5-PW with MMT 105 shafts. Got a shipping confirmation saying my entire order shipped on 2/9. Great! But.... they only built and shipped the 8 iron. I emailed them and said they were expecting the rest of the shafts on 2/18 and would build the rest then. I contact them 2/20 and they say they just built and shipped the 5 and 6 irons. They tell me the 7, 9 and PW shafts are coming in on 2/25 and they will build and ship them the next week. I did not receive anything so I emailed them last friday. They got back to me today and said the 7 iron is going to be built this week and that they hope to get the 9 iron and PW shafts in on 3/5 and then build them the next week.....right, like I believe that will happen. 

 

I am 99% sure they are getting full sets of the shafts from Mitsubishi but then splitting them up between orders so that they can partially fill a set and people won't cancel. It makes no sense to me that Mitsubishi would send them just an 8 iron shaft here and a 7 iron shaft there every couple of weeks which is what Srixon is telling me is happening. I suppose it is possible, but I just don't believe it.

 

I was going to orders some Zipcores to go with my irons, but I am definitely not ordering anything else from this company during covid.

 

I am pretty close to canceling the order and having DD's just send back the few clubs that they shipped so far if I can. If not, they may just go straight on the BST once I actually get them. I am kind of soured on the whole brand and experience, especially the part about hearing that Srixon is "taking care" of their preferred accounts. 

 

I know, I know, covid....but I think a lot of this goes beyond that I don't like supporting bad business. The inefficiency of sending partial sets kills me. Just such a waste.

I would not think they are getting sets as you presume. With the partial sets so many order they would not want 3 and 4 iron shafts left over.

From what I have read the MMT shafts are delaying orders from all club manufacturers.

I was finally told yesterday after a month of back and forth that they don't have enough heads to fill my zx5/7 set.  Mid to late March.  I cancelled.  Maybe will reorder later in the year.

Wow this thread is making me nervous! I placed an order through a vendor last week. I'm still just waiting for the dreaded backorder email but haven't gotten one yet (which could be a good thing??). Whatever happens they'll get here when they get here. Seems like every major oem has supply issues, stupid covid haha.

Yay -- MMT's were wrong for me!

 

Of course, the heads were right, lol.

 

It's been 8 days! Glad I ordered through a dealer, now I don't have to worry about emailing, etc.  Out of sight, kind of out of mind.  Week of 3/22 is on the calendar - if I haven't heard anything I'll check in with the shop and I'm sure they will tell me what they know - anytime before 3/30 is awesome, but after will be fine.  

[halfsumo]

I had the same good optimistic attitude for the first 4 weeks of waiting. Since then, the next 4 weeks of waiting, getting mixed messages from Srixon and hearing that some people are getting their irons 3 days after ordering has been a challenge. Especially, based on their last email to me which pretty much means I will not be gettin my irons for another two weeks at the earliest. 

 

I am fully anticipating them saying they now have all the shafts to complete my order, but they gave away the last few heads to someone that ordered last week.

I placed my order 2/21/21. ZX5's. 5-AW, Stock Modus 105s, stock grip. Was just given a ship date of 4/16/21 a few minutes ago. ☹️

Do you mind if I ask if you ordered through a dealer or directly from Srixon?

I spoke with Srixon yesterday regarding my hybrids and woods. I had ordered heavier Even Flow Riptide shafts which were considered exotic at the time. I was told they are out of Riptide shafts, but expect stock in soon.

 

However, to my surprise my hybrid showed yesterday. Also to my surprise it came with a "Small Batch" Riptide shaft vs. the standard offering. My guess is they are getting whatever they can as fast as they can and I just got lucky.

[Treyball344]

Just spoke to customer service about my ZX5/ZX7 combo order which was placed January 21. They said the issue is with the MCC midsize red grips being on back order through mid-april. I switched to a different grip so hopefully they will show up soon. So just a heads up for others who may have ordered with that grip...

Srixon has always had Handcrafted and Small Batch PX shafts.

I don't think they are at all intentionally splitting up sets, that is just absurd. There is a big component shortage, every OEM is having the same exact issues, srixon is probably one of the few to short ship though. It is 100% covid related, not only are the components coming slowly, even just getting them off the ships at the ports in so cal is all screwed up and further delaying things. Taylormade is quoting mid JUNE right now for sets with X100 shafts. 

[halfsumo]

I don't know. Every time I have emailed them they have told me ALL of the rest of the shafts for my set were scheduled to be delivered on such and such date. Then, every single time, they only build 1 or 2 irons. The only logical conclusion I can glean from this is that they are splitting up the components. Sure, the much less logical explanation of Mitsusbishi confirming that they sent a whole set of matching shafts, but actually only send one shaft is possible, I guess.

I don't think that is a logical conclusion, its costing srixon extra money each time they ship a partial set. My set was shipped without a P, which matched what I read on here (PW shafts were not in stock).

 

 And I would guess the shafts do not come in sets, because everyone is not ordering the same set or installing straight in (ie they can soft or hard step), but instead ship in bulk of each iron. Very possible that they thought they were getting everything in, but only got batches of certain irons, due to all the logistical issues that I already stated.

rumor is something huge happened to a bunch of components in the supply chain from multiple vendors. lets just say that maybe there is a huge golf treasure in the pacific...

That would not surprise me, two big losses in the last few months from LA bound ships, thousands of containers lost

Geez, second guy that received my order. Is this a USPS or Srixon fiasco?

A cargo ship headed for CA recently lost 1,800 containers overboard. Rumor has it Ping equipment was lost in the accident leading to their supply chain issues, but I don’t know for sure. Things do happen.

couple that with several ships unable to unload and it’s amazing that anyone has received anything.

Ventus and Graphite Design shafts for years to come. All you need is some scuba gear. It can’t be more than 3-5 miles down there right?

[JMA1181]

I ordered from PGASS on 1/29, was told standard 2-3 week lead time. I contacted for an update at week three and was told they were running 3-5 weeks from manufacturer and were scheduled to go out first part of March. I checked back in today and PGASS says they contacted Srixon and the shafts are backordered but expected to be in on 3/19 and should be delivered to me by April. I ordered zx5 in 5-AW with Dynamic Gold S300 shafts. Interesting that 2-3 weeks has now turned into eight. They still have to be delivered to PGASS to be gripped because Srixon only had red or blue MCC at that time.
