The ZX iron family from Srixon has been a roaring success over the years, and in this review, I am going to be presenting my findings on the new ‘mid-cavity’ style iron of the family, the ZXi5. Following on from the ZX5 and ZX5 MK II irons, this has a lot to live up to if it wants to be considered one of the best golf irons in the game.
From a tech point of view, Srixon has mainly focussed on the enhancement of feel this time around and has done so by introducing its i-FORGED, or impact forged process which has allowed it to select specific steel densities to best suit the performance of each iron within the family. For example, the body material of the ZXi5 is S20C steel, whereas the face is SUP10 steel.
