2013 Srixon Z725 Driver 425cc

[+TourSpecGolfer]

Snapped some pics of this years Z725 driver, the irons were pretty awesome with a killer design but a bit busy with the stamping although the feel and performance was stand out. Some would say a little too soft at impact.

Now onto the Z725 driver it's 425cc's released as a 2013 model. It too is pretty busy with the stamping but Srixon has tossed a lot into this one making a smart adjustable face angle driver with adjustable weights. I personally do not like adjustable clubs as I hate having to deal with adapters and how some OEMs try to monopolize shaft sales this way. Like Srixon, are they really only going to offer the Miyazaki shafts from the factory?

Variable face thickness, Forged Ti Face, I haven't hit it yet so I can't really report back if it's effective design. I do think its interesting there are no grooves on the face.

Enjoy the pics, I know we sold a bunch of these so if anyone can chime in with real world experience please do tell.

first impressions are pretty good on this one, head feels nice and heavy, the shaft pretty stable seems to play a bit stiffer than most standard options, the feel on the 9 holes I had it for was that its a firm impact, not harsh but not soft. the ball seems to launch off the face quickly. distance was hard to gauge as this is not my shaft so I was getting a little wider dispersion than I would like but outside of that I actually got into the groove faster with this club than most of my other more exclusive JDM gamers.

The roll was impressive for the launch, it was a little higher than I would want even at 9.5. For me anyway there is something lacking a feel, a sound, a look, or kick I'm not sure exactly whats missing but I know like most other drivers on the market this thing will and can perform for anyone who puts the right shaft and specs and time into it.

Also gave the 3wd a whack, Its nice. similar feel but very easy to get up and a mid trajectory. again stock shaft gotta go.

Seems that distance or accuracy weren't out of this world.

Any more info? Thank you

It's hard to tell, I hit a lot of really good drivers with really good shafts and so many pass through its all hard to gauge anymore. I need a good month of just playing hardcore to sort through it all. This is a good driver, it's a solid impact unlike the irons, a little much written on the sole, I'm not a fan of adjustable stuff and based on this heads feel even with one of my favorite shafts I probably wouldn't fall in love. Because it's got in my experience a decent amount of roll for a mid/high trajectory it does leave me curious to see what inserting a medium trajectory shaft would do for its overall distance.

I'm not really looking for a distance champ there are plenty of those, I need a club i can swing smooth for 18 holes and get good yardage down the middle.

Good write-up, Chris. Those Srixons are good-looking drivers. One thing I've noticed after trying a ton of different drivers (as you must know) is that it takes a while to mesh with a driver. I can usually take irons or FW's and start hitting them pretty well after a swing or two. But it takes a few sessions for me to feel like I can get a real feel for how a driver works, and how to swing it properly. My swing is better than ever right now and I've got about 5-6 drivers I'm sorting through. But each day when I take one out I have to get used to it again before I can start to compare distance, dispassion, forgiveness. The only exception has been the TPRX, I was bombing that thing out of the gate but the next session or 2 struggled with it.
