SRIXON will launch the new ZX Woods on January 15th of 2021.
The ZX series of woods was created for more speed and distance. Because it’s what golfers want from todays new equipment.
Srixon has created what they call the Rebound Frame Technology (RFT). The RFT is designed with a layering of alternating zones, of flexibility and stiffness that work in tandem to put more energy into the ball at impact. So the end result is an increased ball speed and distance off every tee.
“Rebound Frame represents the best energy transfer system we’ve ever designed into a driver,” says Jeff Brunski, Vice President of Research and Development. “From the center of the face to the very rear of the club, we’ve tuned the clubhead stiffness to put more energy into the ball than ever before. The entire driver head in harmony to provide an unprecedented rebound effect, giving you maximum ball speed for more distance.”
Srixon’s ZX7 and ZX5 drivers give golfers options. The same technologies will add to the performance of the Srixon’s Fairway Woods and ZX Hybrids. Pricing is ZX7 Driver at-$529.99, ZX5 Driver-$499.99, ZX fairway Woods-$269.99, ZX Hybrids-$299.99. For more information see Srixon.com.
