Probably the most underrated irons on the market.
Probably the most underrated brand ever...
And their drivers and fairway woods, too.
Understand what you’re saying, and would’ve been true in the past, but nowadays, I wouldn’t say they’re underrated. They’re great irons and rated accordingly.
I play the ZX5 and the amount of customization they offer at no upcharge made the decision so much easier. Certainly helped that they felt better than all the others I tested that day. TM, Callaway, Ping, etc.
The only scratch golfer I play with games a combo zx5/7 set. Tells me everything I need to know.
Older ZX5/7 don't look special at all IMO but they are exceptional on course. Playing the best golf of my life with them in the bag.
Great review. The ZX5 irons have a forged SUP10 face and the body is forged 1020 Carbon Steel.
Great video. My go to channel for an honest golf club review.
Great feeling irons and super easy to blend. I matched them with KBS C Taper Light shafts and couldn’t be happier.
Thanks Michael for another quality review. I’ve had the fives in the bag since November and couldn’t be happier. They have added distance and control to my game here in Australia.
Anxious to see you test the new utility iron and eventually the new blades.
Very excited to try these out! I remember trying out the ZX7's last year & they felt the best to me, so these Mk II irons might be the ticket into the bag. Plus, their new woods & the Cleveland wedges are also super amazing this year, so it might be the trifecta!
Very impressed with the spin. Srixon irons were knocked for not spinning enough and it seems they have addressed it. Can't wait to get fit!
great review as always Michael! Srixon make excellent irons zx5 looks awesome!
WOW, the ZX4 looks so much better now! The spin on those off center hits didn’t drop off as much as you’d think too. Srixon is always underrated these are some great looking irons across the range!
I like that you're throwing some new camera angles in there, Michael.
Looking forward to these
Great Video, Your reveiws are awesome.
You're right about the feel difference between the ZX5 & 7. I got a blended set 2 years ago 5-6-7 in ZX5 and 8-9-PW in the ZX7. I'm now wishing that I got all ZX7's although the gapping is good and my GIR's over all have improved.
those new zx7's look and sound amazing
Really interesting test. The ZX5 is of most interest to me. The spin brought down the carry and levelled it out with the ZX7. But, I love how easy it seemed to launch. Wonder if that will carry over to my test, as it's something I may be looking for.
Hit a zx5/zx7 combo set today, easily the best irons I have ever hit
Srixon Golf are a favorite of Tour players especially when they are free agents and can choose whatever they want to play. Highly underrated but it won’t be for long as they continue to advertise and make great products. I have the zx5 irons in my bag and they are high quality, performing irons.
I play the 765 and 565 irons. No plans yet to change.
I had the opportunity to see these irons in person, and I must say, I was beyond blown away. The milled texture between the grooves on the face are so cool. The aesthetics are incredible. Very small, compact size, but slightly chunky.
@@Station2Station-du2gh yeah they are compact yet massively chunky or something.
Swing always so nice and in control 😊
The ZX5's face is forged (SUP10 steel). The body is a forged 1020 carbon steel.
That spin rate of those zx5. Along with the distance. Normally players distance have been starting to do great with the descent with stronger lofts but that spin is crazy. Special club for sure. Btw I thought they had sup10 face with 1020 carbon body
Correction: zx5 face is also forged along with the frame. But it is multi piece construction making it not quite as buttery as a one piece forged.
I have last years ZX5’s. 3-AW and love everything about them. So easy to control, soft feel, and great looking. Shocked that the ZX4’s are 10 yards longer!
stronger lofts
Currently playing z785 irons. Still so bloody good for irons that are 6 years old.
Same. Only clubs in the bag which haven’t been at risk of being replaced. Love them
Same. Upgrading to these. Lol
Surely they can't be 6 years old? I thought around 4 maybe? I'm still gaming them, gorgeous irons.
@@awp7662 they were launched is September 2018. I have blended set 8-9-pw Z785 and 5-6-7 Z585. The 5-iron is kind of obsolete as my 6-iron carry is around 160 meters and 4-iron U85 around 170 m. The gap between 8-iron and 7-iron is 15 meters so that is a little too much. I am thinking of getting these MarkII:s but what bothers me slightly is the thicker top line in compared to Z785.
I am a plus 2 handicap and switched to the 785s a couple years ago. Have never hit irons any better, my previous set were ping i series e1. Love the forged feel and price of srixon. Best irons on the market. Can't wait to try the zx7s but can't imagine I would like them any better than what I am playing now. Gave up about a club in distance but the accuracy more than makes up for that.
You should jump in and try the MK2’s. Zx7 are hot off the face but still keep that soft forged feel. No fliers, just better distance with that same excellent control and turf interaction
I can’t wait for my zx5 mk2’s to get here! Best clubs without the BS hype!
I played the 765's forever, then transitioned to last model ZX7's. I have played SOOOO many OEMs, but I'm gonna wear out these ZX7. Crazy underrated irons.
You can get some great deals on used Srixon clubs. I'm gaming a used set of ZX5s.
I know the ZX 4’s are not a iron you would play, however I would value your thoughts on how the ZX4 compares to the TM 790’s if you have the time. Even a comparison in the future would really be appreciated.
I play the previous version ZX7's. I can't imagine anything being better. Butter soft feel with lots of feedback. Great stock option shafts. I don't know if I got lucky but all my shafts are very consistent. Modus 120 S. They were so good I didn't feel the need to pull them and check the spine alignment like I have had to do on all my previous sets, and with great improvements in consistency in distance and dispersion. But mostly I became a better ball striker having the feedback I did not have in previous sets, as they were GI irons. I'm going to wear these out before I change them.
Same! Except I bought a new set since they put them on sale and sold my gamers for more than I bought for. Gotta love new releases!
I’m upgrading because the MK2 is slightly smaller head but biggest diff for me is more spin. Apparently new ones spin more so higher ball flight and steeper descending angle.
@@jaychu3850 depends on player. Definitely would get fit since a lot of spin with higher flight/higher descent isn’t that ideal. Want to have a good mixture
@@jaychu3850 Well you should test them first. Sometimes when you up the spin, you lose yardage. There is always a compromise. For me, I make plenty of spin and get plenty of bite with the original MKI. But I only play them to a 6 iron and go to rescues after that. Anyone that isn't a pro should be hitting rescues. They are literally twice as easy and twice as forgiving than longer irons. I can bite a 200 yard shot with a 4 rescue like an 8 iron bites. That means the ball is only a few feet from where it lands at most. I will be testing a 7 rescue to replace my 6 iron here in the near future.
@@tuckerjensen2375 I did. Higher flight and steeper descent is what I want with this club head. I like the 2 degree stronger loft but add spin and it’s perfect for me. But yeah different for everyone…
Killer irons!
Good video as always. Playing ping i500 at the moment and thinking of switching to Srixon ZX7. Have tried the older version already and they did feel awesome! so I’m exited to hit the newer version. Playing hcp 4.1 so I think this can suit my game don’t you think?
Thanks for a great review Michael, I have now promised myself that my next Irons will defo be Srixon 👍👍
PS nice to see you adding some glimpses of the surrounding hills👍👍
Had no option with the different camera angle as it’s not stopped raining so can’t put my camera outside
@@MichaelNewtonGolf hahaha sounds like the winter weather in the UK is as bad as the summer weather we are experiencing down under in NZ.
@@MichaelNewtonGolf Yep, that's just like the weather down here in the Black pudding triangle, my cellar has turned itself into an indoor plunge pool😒😒
But joking aside I thought that the outward-facing camera angle worked well👍👍
@@boojiboy2275 where are you in NZ?
@@MichaelNewtonGolf hi Michael would you say there is any difference apart from cosmetic on the new zx7 to the previous model ?
They're identical to my bridgestones from 2015
Excelente
Game the ZX5's myself. Went in for a fitting considering Srixon, but leaning towards other brands, and walked away with the ZX5's as the clear winner, not only based off of numbers, but the looks and feel blew me away. I've always known Srixon to be a chronically underrated/disrespected brand, but I can personally now vouch for how slept-on this brand is. Would highly consider giving them a go for anyone considering a new set of sticks. They're pure.
Did the exact same thing….. went in expecting to buy either Ping or Taylor Made and walked away with a set of the ZX5’s, they felt great and the consistency was amazing. The ball flight in particular was outstanding and the spin rate so much better than other options.
@@shaun34 Same story here. Glad to hear they're working out for you as well!
Still in my J15cb's. The zx7 is probably were I should go for similar shape and feel with endo forging. The i230 and t100 still temp me.
I just switched from 2022 t100 to 2023 zx7’s, zx7’s are farrr better. Softer, as workable, more confidence inspiring, more powerful, better distance, more forgiving. Night and day difference
@@soothe5242 Thanks for the info. How did the v sole compare to the leading edge on T100? What type of turf do you usually play on?
Im in ZX7 and love them. Tried i230 recently. If you hit both, there is no way, you´ll choose the Ping. Feels like rocks compared to the buttery Srixons..
wow zx5 gave you more spin with less loft , though only 1 degree, its interesting
I wonder if you’ve considered demoing full scoring club range, at least 8-PW, I’d do the 7 as well. The point being you’d see what the gapping would be for the most precision range of the clubs. I mention that in this particular test because of the crazy lofts.
A 28.5 7-iron seems crazy. The result is you’re stuck w/large loft gaps of 5* in all scoring irons or you’re carrying at least 5 wedges. That 28.5 is 0.5 weaker than my 5 iron. While the ZX7 is 2* stronger than my gamers, that’s a pretty simple adaption and the lofts are in 4* steps throughout scoring range, thus I’d expect a nice 12-15 yd gap👍. As hot as those ZX4 faces are, would the 5* gaps be 16-18 yd gaps? Maybe more?
Maybe it’s less of issue for intended golfer as that skill level is typically not a consistent ball striker.
Anyway, that’s just a thought. Completely agree, the Szixon line of irons is extremely underrated
Mike, any chance of a comparison video ZX7 Mk1 vs Mk2 ??
Fit into these today. 16 launch / 5500 spin / 46 degree descent angle / 185 carry. Spin seemed a little low but I'm seeing that number for a lot of people hitting these. Played Z star XV. Anything concerning here? My fitter wasn't very knowledgeable.
I’d look at ball first. I was playing XV with my ZX5 and had way too low of spin and have been experimenting with ProV1x and TP5 and gained probably 1200-1500rpm and much better lunch and descent angles. I am a high speed player (avg 96mph with 7i) so that may have had something to do with it. Also bent my set 3* weak which only made the numbers even better
I like ❤️
Wanna see the ZX5 vs Mizuno pro 225 !
No offense here, when people say , that they are underrated.
Its almost expected that this is what they should be.
I've hit these irons of this model and the last, they are brilliant.
I couldn't purchase the previous model at the time through early covid, due to all the shipping delays and nonsense.
End up with mizuno 921 hot metals, they are fine, srixzon if available at the time , I would bought them in heartbeat.
Srixzon don't play the game with notorious big bank of players, just enough to get the profile recognized.
We should all wake up and buy these amazing products of srixon.
Cubs and balls are all first class
Hi Michael, thanks for another quality review. I'd be very interested to hear on where you think the Wilson D9 forged would fit against these? Would it fit kind of in between the zx7 and zx5?
D9 are great irons probably most similar to zx4 due to similar loft
Decided to get fancy. I am a 9 Hdcp so the Zx5 full set would be what I should have ordered if I were normal but I'm a golfer so normal is not part of the equation. Ordered 5i 6i in the ZX5 and 7 thru gap in the ZX7. I think I have found nirvana. 5 & 6 ZX5 are much easier to hit, fly higher, and go longer than the ZX7. The 7 thru gap in the ZX7 are much better feeling with better trajectory control than the ZX5. Because I am a slow swinger (72 mph with the 7i) I chose the KBS Tour Lite steel shaft in reg flex (Just not a fan of graphite shafts in my irons). I am simply elated cuz I am a long sufferer in my search to find a suitable set of irons. I'm out. 🥺
Please review Honma 757 series..
Lovely looking irons. Love all three. Are they well made?
Japanese iron. And they are much better at quality control than the US.
Please do an "on course" video...
What shafts were you using in those please?
Have they thinned out the top line on the ZX7? I liked the feel of the ZX7 but the topline was pretty thick for a players iron.
No, not really. They've kept it the same it the same in there models for blending proposes. Even the UT. Didn't bevel it on the 7s as I'd hoped.
Wonder how the ZX4 compares to the utility
do you think the V t sole actually helps vs an iron with regular bounce?? thx
Play old zx7 s awesome irons
Did I miss on what shaft he was hitting with?
I’m a +22 handicap and honestly these are so good I don’t play any better with GI irons than I do with the zx7 set I own.. of course my irons aren’t really my problem my long woods are usually my issue
The zx7’s look awesome. I didn’t like the sound of either the zx5 or zx7’s when they first came out. I’d like the try the mark 2’s though…….. ⛳️😁⛳️
Just got fitted for the ZX7s today. They felt great, I can’t wait to get them and get out on the course 🏌️👍🏼
Can you do a comparison between the ZX7 and the Ping i230?
How’s the zx7 compare to t100?
Difference between Mk1?
These or Mizuno JPX923 Hot Metal?
Zx5 is forged face?
Michael , what about a comparison video : ZX7 v new Mizuno 923 forged ! Thanks .
How do they compare to the Mizuno 223?
I’ve owned both and in my opinion the Srixon MKII’s feel better to me 🤷♂️
What is the same category as the TM p790? Zx4 or zx5?
P790=ZX5
P770=ZX7
When is the driver review coming?
Already on my channel
BYE BYE TO CARBON!? Srixon ZX5 & ZX7 MKII Drivers

Shaft spec?
So what are the differences between the old ZX5 and the MK2? seems like no one is comparing them to the old ones. HMMMMMM!!!
Performance wise I don’t know, but the old model had quite a chunky sole and longer blade length. All 3 models are more compact now, but the ZX5 has changed the most. Now the sole and blade length of the new zx5 is almost as small as the old zx7. If you dig around on Srixon site you can see the measurements. The 5 is on my radar now that they don’t have that overly wide sole. Hope that helps.
Maybe now they'll put Lucas Glover in their commercials, lol.
Not the biggest fan of the look. I actually like the z785 much more compared to the zx7, do you think there’s a lot of difference between the two?
I agree. The Z785 has a thinner top-line
No glove. What a guy!
The 5 and the 7 carry the same distance?
Modus shafts
If only the top line of the ZX7 didn’t look so chun-keh
28.5 Deg 7 iron..... lol
Top line is the same thickness on all three models.
I always felt like a hypocrit by riding motorcycles and thinking golf is an elitist sport
Untill i looked at the price of these clubs. I'm sticking to cars and motorcycles. Fuck sakes for the price of 3-5 clubs, you can get yourself either a fun beater car and turn it into an autocross car and have some money left over OR build yourself an engine that can out perform the 6.2 chev has in their vette
