If you arenβt evolving, you are falling behind. Srixon Golf has always seemed to take this to heart, especially when it comes to their flagship irons the 5-Series and 7-Series. Well, after much anticipation, they are ready to formally introduce the next generation and here is our Srixon ZX5 and ZX7 irons review.
Not only does THP have a rundown of the design features of each in this article, but we were also able to spend time with the 7i and PW from each set as well.
Are you ready?
Quick Take
Put any worries to rest when it comes to Srixon altering the formula of their Z-Series irons. There may be some impressive technology changes on board as well as a naming change, but the looks, feel, and flat out filthy performance still stands tall in both the ZX5 and ZX7 irons.
Change is Good
Srixon has hit homerun after homerun with their Z-Series irons the past three releases, the 45, 65, and 85 models have been nothing short of stellar and cemented them as an iron company. This year, the name is changing by shortening the naming mechanism to simply ZX5 and ZX7, but the amount of design that has gone into these is greater than any iron Srixon has ever produced.
The basis around the ZX5 and ZX7 this year is best explained by the tag line that Srixon has used in their release, βCreated with human intelligence but perfected by the artificial kind.β Now, yes, βArtificial Intelligenceβ is without any doubt a βhotβ discussion point across the industry, but while others are making it all about the computer, Srixon is making sure to let it be known that the craftsmanship is where it all starts with the new ZX irons, and itβs the A.I. that is working with it to take both series of irons to a whole new level.
While each of the iron series have always been differentiated by most based on size and profile, this year they are also each touting some design traits that are unique to each set. As I was fortunate enough to get the 7i and PW in hand for the ZX5 and ZX7 irons and work with them, it makes sense to dive into each individually.
Srixon ZX5
Getting it out of the way, yes, the ZX5 remains the βbiggerβ of the two iron sets just as has been the case in previous iterations, itβs a club that walks a blended line between a players design and a more game improvement setup.
The ZX5 is still a forged iron and offers a sound/feel that is soft yet quick, at impact it is a crisp feedback that isnβt quite as plush as a pure one-piece cavity back, but it is closer than ever. The look at address is so surprising as both the offset and topline are very tame and it keeps that same heel to toe length that even some of the pickiest out there will get along with.
The sole does have much more width to it than the ZX7, but the previously mentioned heel to toe length of the blade makes it less of a concern. Not to mention, the ZX5 does feature Srixonβs Tour V.T. Sole that I continue to believe is the greatest iron sole grind of all time. In my workout of the 7i and PW on the course that opinion was nothing but solidified as it just responds so well from any lie I could throw at it, and honestly, it makes the wider sole insanely effective. But, this year something special is happening when it comes to the V.T. Sole and it is the return of the sole notches last seen on the 545/745 irons and arguably a big reason that so many of those sets remain in bags, the notches offer relief and thus more versatility which is never a bad thing.
The ZX5 also feature progressive grooves through the set which applies to a SUP10 face that is joined to the 1020 carbon steel frame along with tungsten in the toe of the longer irons. All of these things seek to improve flight, forgiveness, and consistency, but the real story is something called βMainframeβ. This name represents Srixon designers setting the parameters to create their fastest irons on every shot and ran thousands upon thousands of simulations to come up with the pattern that is milled onto the back of each ZX5 face. The variable thickness pattern also features grooves and shapes to make what Srixon believes is an iron that is faster on every single strike, misses included.
Is it though? Without a doubt.
I worked out the 7i and PW of the ZX5 head to head with their sibling the ZX7 and the data recorded on the Foresight GC2 following this section tells the story, these are fast. For me, they were noticeably faster than the ZX7 and misses were at times laughable with how they kept speed comparably.
While you will see in the numbers the spin is also a bit on the low side, this is in part to having to record my data indoors as well as the fact that it has always been the case for me with the 5-Series of irons from Srixon. What stood out in the data and on the course though was the height and descent angle I was able to hit these, both more significant for me than with the 585βs, making my personal spin numbers a non-issue.
Bottom line, there is some serious firepower here. Paired with the Nippon MODUS3 Tour105 shafts is a setup that is smooth and forgiving while also being shockingly long.
Srixon ZX7
The 7-Series has constantly been one of the most gorgeous players cavity designs on the market with each release, and though the new ZX7 is a bit more modern looking with the angles and cavity, it holds true to its lineage and makes for a jaw dropping look in hand and in bag. A thin topline, minimal offset, and a sole that even the most demanding ball striker would be impressed with, the ZX7 is a stunner.
Fully forged out of 1020 Carbon Steel, these are true players irons. Though some might initially think that the cavity is a bit too busy, there is a rhyme and a reason for the added angles and mass placement this time around. The goal with an iron like this is always to add playability while maintaining the look/profile that so many demand, the different angles on the back of the club allowed Srixon to not only move some mass to the perimeter, but also place some directly behind the sweet spot in order to increase MOI while creating more feel.
Through impact, these offered me the feedback in sound/feel that I expected having spent time with every single 7-Series iron from Srixon. The sensation through contact on decent to well struck shots is one that walks the line between sharp and dull, itβs a blend that will be nearly impossible for golfers to find a detraction about. The overall playability for those who enjoy players irons is what stood out most in my time with the ZX7. With the progressive grooves and Tour V.T. Sole with the return of the sole notches, the golfer who demands versatility and precision in anylie will have all they can handle with these. There was no shot that I threw at them on the course that they couldnβt handle, itβs all about if it is a profile you are comfortable and confident in.
Like the ZX5, I also put the two clubs to work on the Foresight GC2 launch monitor and that data is shown. As you will see, the launch, peak, and speed were particularly good for me in both. While the spin dipped a bit recording data indoors, the Nippon MODUS3 Tour120 made for a pairing that just added to the feel and consistency of the heads.
Where the ZX5 offers firepower, the ZX7 rests on precision, but that doesnβt mean they each donβt also have some that the other does. In fact, they blend so well that Srixon is all in on the combo set trend offering any combination you could possibly want, including adding in the new ZX Utility to the mix.
Worth the Wait
Much anticipation has surrounded the release of the Srixon ZX5 and ZX7 irons review, and Srixon is not letting anyone down with what they have created. Itβs easy to sit here and write that they impressed me, but they went well beyond that at times with how well they each hit their specific segment while also complimenting one another. This is without a doubt going to be yet another big release for Srixon.
The Details
Available: January 15, 2021
ZX5: 8-Piece $1299.99 Steel/$1399.99 Graphite (Nippon MODUS3 Tour105, UST Mamiya Recoil 95)

Srixon is really good with custom orders. My ZX5s took 10 days and were spot on.
Same when I ordered my ZX4’s that was also two weeks. Good luck and stay safe.

I’ve had a few weeks off from swinging clubs due to the holidays. Tomorrow I will get back into my 2-3 times per week of sim time. At the end of 2021 a mighty competitor showed up (t100s), but the ZX7 stood tall and remained my gamer. Feel, flight, forgiveness for my miss tendencies, turf feel, etc. work for me. π
I will, of course, review that bag battle (geek alert) and include some new challengers (looking at you Mizuno pro 223), but it will take a lot of knock the ZX7s from the throne, esp. given my expensive interest in revamping the top of the bag.
That said, my ZX7 set needs some tweaks. I need a gap wedge and something in the 4i spot. 4i spot is the biggest priority. I am thinking either ZX5 or ZX utility 4/23. A hybrid is possible too. Gap wedge is more about shaft. I picked up 58 and 54 SM8 wedges with steelfiber i110 to go with the i95’s in my irons set. I love how those feel. I think I will either grab an SM8 or maybe a zipcore. edit to add: the t100s set gap wedge is fantastic. It has changed my view of what I want. I might just use it. IDK. Need to test with the set.
You guys, and the fact that there’s ice on my truck and everything just looks like pain, are making me want to take the ZX7 out. I’ve been trying to stick with the same shaft/feel setup while dealing with the bad back though. That’s been variable enough. I’ve concluded that I just can’t sell them though, so I may have to just do a swap and put them back into the rotation.

I had both a ZX7 and ZX5 4i head when I built my set. The ZX5 ended up getting built and I haven’t regretted it once. Top line is the same on both and I can only see a tiny sliver of the backside of the ZX5 at address and it actually is more confidence inspiring on my long iron shots. Certainly worth considering as I love the v-sole off the tee and the turf
I will say, there is a portion of me that has a much higher position of my ballstriking than it should that wanted to do a mixed ZX5/ZX7 set. But the more I thought about it, the ZX5’s felt so good in the fitting, and look so sleek for an iron with some help in the head, that I ignored my #InternetGolfer tendencies and just went with what I was fitted into. I doubt I will be disappointed.

Just won a bid for a u85 5 iron at a great price. On the hunt for my last iron (9 iron) and then will have complete set. ZX5 7-AW, U85 6,5,4. When using the rented set on Vaca I hit 6 and 5 well but wanted more forgiveness when my swing slows down when I hit my 70s (maybe :p). Can’t wait to hit these irons in proper weather to check gapping. Oh, updated my wedges with Glide 3s 54 and 58 eyes. Love the spin…
Love seeing all you guys getting into the Srixon irons. You won’t be disappointed at all.

Just got fitted in to ZX7, defecting from mizuno. The Pro 223 is nice but these are much more forgiving. Just wish Srixon offered a wrap grip…
Anyone know how far out they are shipping for exotics? Was told 4 weeks but not sure if anyone has any recent experience.

Welcome to THP!
Iβm kinda torn on a back up set of irons. Playing King Tour right now. Looking at the ZX5 vs Hot Metal Pro. Anyone have a direct comparison?

During my fitting I compared the zx5’s to the mizuno 921 forged and the zx5’s won out on turf interaction, the feel was pretty similar. I would think the Hot metal pro is more of a rival for the zx4 (bit more of a power bat). In truth the only thing that beats the zx5 is the zx7 π if only I were a good enough ball striker.

Bringing ZeXy back..
Ye-a!!
Have played everything else in the last week or so, time to get my ZeXy on. Compare some feels and flights with the new balls.
