Srixon Z 745 Irons Preview

I found a retailer here in Sweden who has them in black and I can get em fully customised.
Like to game them with Modus 120 shaft.
Choosing between the Srizon Z745 and Cobra King cb? Love black clubheads.

Yes please put up some pics........

Here are pics of the 745 3i and 945 pw. Over 100 rounds and they are holding up really well

Nice Kang, not bad at all with as much as you play dude. Very nice.
 
Ya that's pretty good for over 100 rounds played
 
That's pretty solid color hold up there Kang. Top quality there.
 
Mmmm looking really nice, beautiful clubs. Will decide tomorrow if I go for Srixon or Cobra but after those pics I think I will be gaming Srixon for this season ;)
 
Wow. That finish has held up way better than I would have expected.... And damn those 945s look amazing... Compared to the 745, how much less forgiving would you say they are?

That's pretty impressive. Plus range time. I'm floored right now.

I think there is definitely more ball speed retention in the 745 when straying from center. Honestly the set flows so well from 945 5i to 745 4i. If anything the little bit of extra forgiveness and the comfort knowing that the 3 and 4 are cavities may provide more of placebo effect than anything. From 745 to 945 (I've gamed both) I did not see much difference in feel or flight

So it´s done. The clubs are on the way.
z545 4-6
z745 7-8
z945 9-pw

All with modus 120 X shaft and in Black Gold Edition.

My concern is if I should have ordered the 6 iron in the z745 instead? What is your input on this, how big difference is it on the 545 vs 745?

All the best

I don't recall there being a HUGE difference, but definitely a difference. I wouldn't say I am an excellent ball striker, but I would consider myself better than average and I find the 745s to be plenty forgiving for me. I thought about going the 545 route once upon a time, but as I have started to play the 745s more, I realized there is no reason. If you can deal with the little bit bigger look at address I can not see it being a bad thing. Overall, I think the 745s are some of the best muscle cavities out there. If there is any other set I'd want to try it would be the 945s. Best of luck, and let us know what you think!

I think you'll be fine. I have both and they are close enough that they blend. The 745 are thinner and a true CB. I actually think you'll like having the 545 6. They are very easy to hit. I think you'll be very happy.

I did something I might regret (being a Callaway junkie). I hit these at GS last night as the lady was demoing a new driver and holy crap they were amazing. I was almost dead set on getting the new Callaway CF 16 irons this summer, but Im in heavy ponder mode on these now. Im going to go back this weekend and try some different shaft combos and see how they do.

That reaction seems to be pretty consistent. They are that good.
 
Sure these clubs are over 2 years "old" now but whatever.

I've test drove the 745 and the 545 at the range a few times recently and really liked them (and even though I wish they said Cleveland on them*), I'm gonna give the Srixons a try. I had no problems with dispersion hitting the 745's (I only go to 6 iron) even in the brutish DG S300's - but if the 6 and 7 start being a problem on the course (range blasting is easy with any club, lol) I will definitely order 6, 7 545's bent 1 degree weak to fill in.

The other factor in getting these now over equally liked JPX 850F, Ping Ie1, Apex 16, or even trying out the new Hogan PTX is the price, they are very economical right now and offer many upgraded shafts.

So being that they are such a great deal right now I've decided to give the 745's in 6-PW a shot for the rest of this year. KBS C-Taper Lites (stiff soft stepped 1x), 1 degree flat and NDMC grips =2 wraps, asked for the PW to be 1/4 inch over to match my other wedges at 35.75 inches. Also ordered a Cleveland RTX 2.0 CB 50° with no-upcharge CTL shaft as well since there is no GW for the Srixon. Since Cleveland is about to pop out some new wedges those are an even better deal than you'd think as well.

*"Srixon" as a name still reminds me of a 1980's video game, antiperspirant, "performance enhancing" drug or X-Men character. (yes, I'm old - get off my lawn)
 
I just threw some CTL in my 3-pw 745 and it's taken some getting used to but they feel really nice. The PX 5.5 flighted shafts I had in there originally performed really well, but I had a set of CTL just sitting the garage and I had to see what they were all about. So far, similar performance distance wise but they feel a bit softer and maybe fly a little lower, which is ok with me. I do not think you will be disappointed with the 745s... they are probably my favorite iron ever.
 
The clubs are already here (ordered Monday 4pm PST). They were shipped from Huntington Beach.

A quick check with a protractor is showing they nailed all the specs including the .25 over on just the PW. I'm gonna have to sneak out to the range tonight.

........need to find some damn grass though instead of mats : (
 
Got a chance to hit KC720 combo set and these may be some of the best feeling and performing heads I have hit! Really enjoyed the softness of impact and the sole is awesome in cutting through the rough.
 
Just got some black z745's in myself:

Coming from z745's so not a huge change, but the 745's feel just a little bit nicer. I may end up shafting these up with some black kbs tours:

I've only gotten 3 rounds in with the 745's and 1: I have no problem with the 6 iron at all and 2: I have more CTP's (closet to the pins) in these last three rounds than I've had in years. 3. I need my 50 degree wedge from Cleveland to show up as going 46 to 54 isn't ideal for me.

So far these are great and I haven't hit irons so straight since my summer 2013 fling with some JPX 825 Pro's. The 745's don't even seem shorter than my Apex, just way more consistent and I can actually hit a nice fade again when I want to.

I don't miss my Apex 14's at all, not even one bit. I gave the Apex 2 years and despite changing shafts/lies/grips multiple times could never trust them to not go somewhere weird (usually deep and left) under pressure.
