Srixon has revamped the Z-TX driver to make it more oriented towards the better player. Under the Sri-Sports umbrella, Srixon has always been geared towards the athlete golfer while it’s sibling XXIO focused on the average golfer. Last year’s Z-TX driver was perhaps a touch too large and shallow for the pro player so they redesigned it as the new Z-TX Tour.
The Z-TX Tour will feature a more traditional head shape, 430cc, deeper face and interchangeable weights. The 6 part multi bulge and roll face and variable thickness create feel and high ball speeds for the faster and harder swinger. The driver’s Quick Tune System will come with 3, 7 and 11g weights for a weight port towards the heel and toe altering the head bias and overall weight and swing weight of the head.
There will also be a 460cc Z-TX (non tour model) with weight ports at the back and heel for a more draw bias and forgiving club with a slightly larger head and shallower face. I guess more like last years model shape wise but with weights. Both heads feature a flatter 57.5* lie which better players seem to like.
The STOCK shaft will be the Miyazaki Kusala Black 72, Blue 72 and Silver 61. The Black will be available only on the Z-TX Tour while the Blue and Silver are for the standard Z-TX.
Also scheduled for a November launch will be the new Forged Z-TX irons which will feature laser milled face and grooves a la Cleveland technology. We’ll post more once additional info becomes available.
