Srixon ZXi Hybrid

The ZXi hybrid has plenty of forgiveness for the mid-handicap golfer. A shot might not start on a perfect line, but it doesn't curve wildly, and when contact is thin, it still elevates to a reasonable trajectory. i-FLEX face technology features a thickness pattern with a thinner center area and thicker heel and toe regions, resulting in greater energy transfer for longer shots. New, larger head shape with 17° hitting 120cc for the first time. Above-average forgiveness — i-FLEX variable thickness + larger head + Rebound Frame two-zone flex; major upgrade vs ZX Mk II's 22nd-place 2023 forgiveness ranking.

Independent testing on a GCQuad launch monitor: ZXi produced ball speed numbers averaging 149mph from a 17° head, with just under 238 yards of carry. Rebound Frame utilizes two flex zones on the face to increase power and shot distance, regardless of strike location. Mid launch and spin with the ability to climb up or down the trajectory ladder. Above-average distance — 149mph ball speed + 238yd carry on 17° + Rebound Frame; major leap vs ZX Mk II's 187yd carry baseline.

A versatile, solid hybrid for players in the mid-handicap range and better, with plenty of forgiveness while also offering the ability to shape shots and alter trajectories. The 12-way adjustable hosel allows you to adjust the loft and lie across three degrees and the face angle across six. Above-average workability — explicit 'ability to shape shots and alter trajectories' + 12-way hosel for trajectory tuning, larger head adds some forgiveness margin to shape-shifting.

When striking a premium ball, the ZXi hybrid feels solid — the best shots get rewarded with extra snap, while poor shots don't feel bad but show less force behind them. Premium-feeling, high-performing club. Above-average feel — solid impact with extra snap on best shots + clear strike-quality feedback through reduced force on mis-hits.

The impact sound of the ZXi hybrid matches its look — understated but self-assured, with below-average volume on center hits, not needing to shout about its performance. Above-average sound — understated below-average-volume acoustic with controlled self-assured character.

The ZXi boasts a clean, matte black crown which looks great on fairway woods and hybrids, especially at address, with fairly understated colors that don't appear overly busy. New, larger head shape designed to inspire confidence at address with 17° hitting 120cc. Above-average address — clean matte black crown + larger 120cc head inspires confidence, refined understated aesthetic.
