When I ordered mine I felt I was going for the zx 4 in 6/7 and zx5 above
Surprisingly I hit the 5 as far and as a a slow swing low ball hitter I did not get extra height with the 4
I enjoyed the feel more on 5 so ordered only the zx 5
Have had them for some weeks and am enjoying them
Ps...
Have had my zx 5 mk 2 for some weeks
Interesting that standard shafts down under in steel n s pro
When I went for fit I intended to get zx 4 for 6/7 but ended up with zx5 for better feel and workability and zx 4 did not for me give me significant gains in ball speed or height
P s I feel they...
Only hit few shots but my pga prof said felt flew a little higher and had more carry .
He had a hit and felt new clubs had a bit more pop.
I still love feel of 545 but probably zx5 overall better
Got my zx 5 mk 2 .got 6-pw too replace z 545 .
Got x x I o 6 hybrid instead of 5
My club pro did brief session on track man
Averaged about 10 m more carry and slightly more height on zx5
From a feel perspective I feel the old 545 were pretty special .new one comparable feels a little hotter...
I would call differences slight and when I alternated between them I would not immediately say it was one or other
When side by side slightly s thinner top line and sole but not huge
Feel biggest difference
Loft difference meant for my swing speed height was also comparable
7 iron only swings
Had mizuno fit at mizuno was thinking 923 h l would suit but fitter said my old 545 were better for me
Interesting also that I felt graphite would help with speed and height .
Height improved but distance went down
Mizuno shat analyser recommended m s pro 950 as best shaft for me which happens...
Interesting
I went to drummonds today again my preconceived plan was zx4. In 5-7 zx5 8-p w
Coming from old srixon 545 I have slowish swing speed and was looking for extra. Height and carry in lower end .
Differences in distance and height were minimal
While the zx 4 felt and sounded ok...
Have 545 irons which I replaced with ping I 500 never loved them and 545 back in bag
The feel on these are great
Looking to zx 4 at bottom end and zx 5 8 iron up
Swing speed low but short back swing and quick tempo
Interestingly had fit at mizuno and best shaft was no pro which is what I...
I had a Sri on 545 replaced by I 500
66 handicap 12
My issue was need height and carry but like to work ball
Compared z x 5/4 to mine
Z x 4 was highest ball flight longest carry and very straight more forgiving than all but felt feel on 545 was best and more workable
Sticking with 545 but...
As with some of posters I have difficulty with 3 wood off deck .
Use a heaven wood which I find much easier to hit with more carry but if I hit my 3 wood we’ll get more run and maybe 10 metres when really hit well.
Have a demo halo 3 wood and 3 hybrid but it is the halo hybrid not the halo hy lo...
I thought I would relate my experience of getting a handicap after 14 years out of the game
I used to play regularly and got down to a best handicap of 9 but took up cycling and played maybe once a year
Rekindled the passion and joined a club in Melbourne Australia.
Wanted to get a handicap...
About to get fitted for whole new set of clubs .I will be having a fitting indoors .
How reliable is fitting compared to real life performance on course.
When distance is given indoors is this a realistic representation of how far you hit on course.
Are company sponsored demo days of any value...
