TECH TALK: Srixon’s new Z-785 and Z-585 drivers

Published

on

In the videos below, Jeff Brunski, the Vice President of R&D for Srixon, teaches GolfWRX Editor Andrew Tursky absolutely everything you need to know about both of Srixon’s new Z-585 and Z-785 drivers, the replacements for the Z-565 and Z-765 drivers released in 2017.

The relationship between the 785 and the 585 models will remain the same as their predecessors; the Z-785 will offer a lower-spinning, more penetrating trajectory with a tour-preferred look, according to Srixon, while the Z-585 will promote a bit more forgiveness with a larger profile. Both drivers have a new Ti51AF Cup Face to improve ball speeds across the face and carbon composite crowns. Also, the Z-875 driver has a Quick Tune System for hosel adjustments.

The Z-785 driver ($499) and the Z-585 driver ($399) will each be available starting on September 14.

    I have the Z565 and it’s a rocket. If they had a trade up program, I might pull the trigger. My issue is the shaft… you own Miyazaki, which is a premium shaft ( my opinion ). But you don’t use them in your clubs. What does that say about your confidence in your brand.?

      The Handcrafted Hzrdus shaft as stock shaft offering is a game changer. Seems Like Srixon upped the bar.

        How in the world do you know that? Do you have inside information or something. Your statement is just garbage.

          Obviously hit a raw nerve here with a Srixon fan

          I play z765/z965 combo and they are brilliant, absolutely brilliant

          But Srixon woods never perform and neither will theses

Published

on

It’s hard to believe it’s been 10 years since Rory McIlroy outlasted Phil Mickelson at the 2014 PGA Championship. It’s even harder to believe McIlroy hasn’t hoisted a major trophy since his 2014 victory at Valhalla.

After a slow start to his final round, McIlroy tallied an eagle and two birdies on the back nine and his fourth major championship. Take a look at the clubs he played a decade ago in Kentucky.

Titleist launches Pro V1, Pro V1x and Pro V1x Left Dash balls with enhanced alignment

Published

on

Titleist has today introduced Pro V1, Pro V1x, and Pro V1x Left Dash golf balls featuring enhanced alignment.

The new Enhanced Alignment aid is an extended alignment sidestamp designed for more precise aim and accuracy. The elongated sidestamp provides a built-in visual aid and measures over 65 percent longer than the standard Pro V1 sidestamp.

“Enhanced Alignment is designed for golfers who are seeking a more detailed, built-in alignment feature on their Pro V1, Pro V1x or Pro V1x Left Dash. We saw overwhelming interest in the single-colored line on Pro V1 Performance Alignment, and this is another alternative for players who prefer a slightly different look.” – Jeremy Stone, Vice President, Titleist Golf Ball Marketing

In addition to Enhanced Alignment, Titleist offers more than 40 different alignment aid designs on Pro V1’s fourth pole – opposite the sidestamp – through custom order on Titleist.com.

Pro V1, Pro V1x and Pro V1x Left Dash Enhanced Alignment golf balls are available to order through titleist.com and at authorized Titleist retailers beginning on May 17 in the United States only. Enhanced Alignment is available globally on July 1.
