2010 Srixon Z-TX Driver & Irons

Here you have it first images found anywhere of the Tour Issue Prototype Srixon Z-TX Driver and Srixon Z-TX Iron’s. I haven’t heard anything about these two new products from any source until a few days ago when our JPGA friends sent us images of what appears to be Srixon’s next generation of golf clubs for 2010.

Off the bat it doesn’t appear to be sporting typical Srixon Japan aesthetics and based on that hunch we do think that the new Srixon Z-TX will show up early 2010 in Japan and mid 2010 in the United States. No players had the new Srixon Z-TX clubs in the bag at the U.S open or any other recent PGA Tour event so it’s still hard to confirm. It sure does look like a good fit in the U.S line up though.

Wider Sweet Spot

Our reports tell us that the first images of the Tour Issue prototype will debut in next months Golf Classic magazine and in regards to the performance and design aspect it is gem, the testing shows the new Srixon Z-TX has more distance and a better optimal spin rate than any other Srixon driver ever released. The face depth has been reduced and the heel to toe length increased creating a wider sweet spot. This has been the design philosophy of XXIO which is also under Srixons umbrella but geared to the average golfer so it’s nice to see Srixon implementing that technology and design into a Tour level product.

Srixon Z-TX Irons

Now take a look at the Srixon Z-TX Irons, very similar to their last offering in Japan with it’s cut away sole area’s but this one appears to be even more compact and blade like. from above it also has a thinner top line and less offset. I think a lot of golfers in the United States will be excited to see the improvements over the last models. I still think Srixon USA should also release the current Japanese ZR-600 model in limited numbers in the states to select accounts. It would be good for them and great for golfers.
