Srixon's fantastic ZX Mk II irons
We know how important irons are to a good round and a good score, but this latest release from Srixon can improve your game more than you thought possible…
Equipment
The 11th hole at Brookline, the host of this week’s U.S. Open, has been revived after over a century of dormancy in championship golf. The 131-yard par-3 might look like a definite birdie opportunity on the scorecard, but a lack of accuracy could cost you an arm and a leg. It’s what makes this hole so special.
Imagine standing on the tee box. You’re looking at a flag so close you could almost reach out and pull it out of the hole; but it’s surrounded by sand, elevated so that any misses will roll right away, and there’s little room for error between the flag and the danger. What’s going through your mind: go flag hunting or just make sure you find the dancefloor?
If you aren’t the type of golfer to shape your shots for fun and land the ball inside a two-foot target every time, that’s absolutely fine. On a hole like this, simply finding the green puts you in a great position. The question is: would you be confident of doing that?
So, you look at the green then look down at your golf ball and what do you see? Does the iron behind the ball inspire confidence? If not, the Srixon ZX irons range could be a fantastic solution; ranging from the ultra-forgiving ZX4 to the more precise ZX7. From looks to performance, they’re incredibly forgiving. Perfect for feeling confident on that short par-3!
If you do like to get precise and have absolute control over your ball flight, you’ll probably lean more towards Srixon’s Z-Forged irons. The Tour-inspired look & performance utilises a classically beautiful forged blade shape for maximum workability. Suddenly, it doesn’t matter how daunting the task, you can always attack the flagstick.
