Great review. This line is certainly more eye pleasing than the previous series.

I’m not exactly sure where the adoption has been but it wouldn’t surprise me because the ZX5 is pretty darn goodi might have dreamed this, but did i hear/read that their tour adoption has been more heavily toward the zx5 than the zx7?
i would put these on my short list of woods to try next year. and by short list i mean every single oem, because they're coming out with serious heat in 2021.
Haha, we have all made mistakes, and that wasn't exactly a big oneMy first article brain fart! Ooops
I read that as well. I know Hideki put a ZX5 in and a few more as well. I think it was about 5-6 went with the ZX5 and I think 2 went with the ZX7. Not sure if that was all tours combined either.i might have dreamed this, but did i hear/read that their tour adoption has been more heavily toward the zx5 than the zx7?

I’ve been a huge fan of Cleveland/Srixon’s hybrids going all the way back to the 588 - and actually probably before that. I want to give this one a shot.
I want to see what the spin numbers are with the ZX5. I know we all deliver the club head differently, but some good baseline numbers will go a long way to help understand the differences between the two. I know the article mentions the ZX7 will be several hundred RPM's lower than the ZX5, but some numbers would help to compare.
Also I like the ZX7 weight options and appearance of a smaller head at address, but still in a 460cc head.
I can't help with anybody else, but for me, the difference between the two was about 350rpms stock setup to stock setup. Both were pretty low though. I believe I was 2700s with the 5 and 2300-2400 with the 7. While that sounds ideal, I like the idea of something a little higher for me personally.
With that said, I got literally one launch monitor session with both.
I am with you. I would like something slightly higher to help maximize carry. When you say stock setup, was it with the Smoke and what was the loft of the head?
I've gotten along better with Cleveland hybrids vs the Srixon ones. h85 gave me some good numbers on the LM, but I struggled to launch it consistently on the course. But I am very excited from what we've heard about these and will definitely be worth a look.
I still think you should have that 588 in the bag haha
COR limits at .83.......frame can flex all it wants....as long as it falls within guidelines.....nice looking club and assumption of additional distance based on the flex frame.
However.....if it in fact did result in more distance while conforming it would be the headline of the marketing campaign......it is not.....so can only assume the testing did not result in distance gains...
I was curious after reading the post, so I looked it up and the COR limit of .830 was set in 2003, according to what I read. I had forgotten how long ago that limit was set. There has been so much advancement in technology in that time span.While true, CT has changed that a bit as that is what is measured.
I would also add, that no driver has reached its limit across the entire face, and the expansion of that, is a goal everybody wants. COR limits have been in place for a very long time, I dont think anybody would argue that drivers have gotten longer than when the rule was put in.
