Answer
The Srixon Z-Forged MKII irons are a highly-workable muscle back blade designed for skilled players demanding the most from forged feel. Here are some key points about these irons:
- Design and Construction: The Z-Forged MKII irons are precision forged from 1020 Carbon Steel, featuring a compact players package with precision shaping and a stunningly clean address profile. The PureFrame technology enhances feel at impact by reducing unwanted vibrations, providing a remarkably soft yet solid strike.
- Progressive Grooves: The irons have progressive grooves, with wider grooves in the long and mid-irons (3-7) for ideal launch and spin performance, and deeper, closer-set grooves in the short irons (8-PW) for enhanced spin and control on approach shots.
- Customization Options: Players can personalize their Z-Forged MKII irons with custom paintfill, choosing from 20 color options and three color group areas.
- Performance: The irons offer crisp feel, maximum control, and pinpoint workability, making them suitable for skilled players who demand the most from their irons.
- Availability and Price: The Z-Forged MKII irons are available for order with an estimated ship date of June 17, 2024, and retail at RM6650.
- Combination Sets: The Z-Forged MKII irons can be ordered in combination with other Srixon irons, such as the ZX7 MKII, for a customized set that balances workability and forgiveness.
The V-shaped sole grind in the Srixon Z-Forged II irons improves turf interaction by providing a smooth glide through the grass and other surfaces. Here are the key points about the V-shaped sole grind:
- Design: The V-shaped sole grind is a proprietary design feature of Srixon's Tour V.T. Sole technology. It combines sole-widths, bounce angles, and toe/heel notches to optimize turf interaction.
- Turf Interaction: The V-shaped sole grind helps the club glide smoothly through the turf, reducing the amount of material contacting the ground. This results in a more consistent and controlled strike, especially in rough and sand conditions.
- Bounce Angles: The V-shaped sole grind features more bounce positioned up front, which helps to lift the club out of the turf and maintain a consistent strike angle. This is particularly beneficial for golfers who tend to hit the ground before the ball, as it reduces the likelihood of digging or chunking the shot.
- Toe/Heel Notches: The V-shaped sole grind includes toe/heel notches that reduce drag by minimizing the amount of material contacting the ground. This enhances the overall smoothness of the club's interaction with the turf.
- Tour V.T. Sole Technology: The V-shaped sole grind is part of Srixon's Tour V.T. Sole technology, which is highly regarded by the company's tour staff. This technology is designed to provide a smooth and consistent strike, even in challenging conditions.
