H2H: Srixon ZXi vs Srixon ZX MKII drivers

The big story in the 2025 Srixon ZXi drivers is the i-Flex face design. This new variable thickness allows the face to be thinner in the centre and stronger for faster speeds. 
The Star Frame Crown supports the thin titanium crown structure and saves weight so it can be optimised for performance in each model. 
The Rebound Frame has a dual flex zone instead of one, which allows flexing across the whole face for faster speeds and more distance. 
It’s the level of adjustability, however, that sets the ZXi range apart. 
In the Srixon ZXi LS there is a front and back weight which can be changed to alter your ball flight characteristics. This is particularly good if you’ve got a faster swing speeds. 
The ZXi model has two weight ports at the back: one light, one heavy. Again, this allows you to dial-in your preferred flight, delivering the best of both worlds when it comes to distance and forgiveness. 
Last but not least, in the Srixon ZXi Max, the weight sits low and back, which delivers high MOI and max forgiveness. 
It's worth noting that all three head shapes are, aesthetically, largely similar, especially behind the ball. If you're using the Max, you'll still feel like you're using a club aimed at a top player.

Next up, we've got the Srixon ZX Mk II range, which is the predecessor for the ZXi line. This is a range of drivers which is still popular on tour, so clearly Srixon did something right with this range, but can it stack up against their latest and greatest club?

There is three options to choose from here. The ZX7, which is more compact in shape, The ZX5 LS, which is the low-spinning option and the ZX5 which is the most forgiving out of the three. If, like me, you’re not a major champion and you want a forgiving driver, the ZX5 Mk II driver could be the club for you out of this line.
 
This clubhead has a large, flattened footprint, which makes it easy to launch the ball high off the tee. In the head you’ll find the rebound frame, which allows the face to create very high ball speeds. Rather than just one flexing component, this driver has two, which combine to make a very fast club. If you’re looking for a driver that is focused on high launch with high forgiveness, this is a great place to look.
