Srixon Zxi4 Irons Review – Are They Forgiving & Good for High Handicappers?
Srixon Zxi4 is the most game improvement out of the new range of irons from Srixon. It’s a hollow body construction with i forged face that offers speed and forgiveness on off center shots.
Theese irons look and feel amazing. They produce solid speed and a great sound for a hollow body. Very impressive!
Srixon Zxi4 Irons Overview
Srixon Zxi4 looks amazing for a game improvement iron. The top line is a bit thick, as is the sole, but it still delivers a beautiful players style look in the bag.
There is a little bit of Offset, not as much as other Game Improvers, and the polished chrome and satin finish completes the premium look.
The i forging in the face is an extra step in the forging process that strengthens the steel. This may be one reason why the club sounds so good and not clicky like other hollow body irons. The SUS-1747, is softer and lighter than the previous material and the 14% weight saving is used to put the COG lower and deeper in the club face.
There is also a tungsten bar close to the sole that leads to a higher launch and a better launch angle to stop the ball on the green. The grooves are also progressive meaning there is less on the long irons and more on the shorter irons to increase the spin.
Srixon Zxi4 Overall
These clubs are all about speed, distance and forgivness. They are almost a cross between a game improvement iron and players distance iron.
You get good distance, low flight, low spin and good forgiveness on off center strikes. The irons feel and sound beautiful with the forging. These will be very popular for 2025 and beyond.
Overall Score: 95/100

Srixon ZXi4 Irons First Impressions
The first things to notice about the clubs is the premium finish and the player friendly head.
You can see that the offset is minimal but you do get the thick top line and sole for more forgivness.
On hitting the irons, you notice the beautiful sound and feel from the I forged face, which has gone through an extra stage of forging to improve the strength.
The metal is also lighter by 14% and the weight savings are relocated further back in the head to improve launch angle and spin.
THe irons are very focused on distance and as a result there is a lower flight with less which may lead to less stopping power on the greens.
For this reason it may be wise to use the long irons in the ZXi4 and move to a more player friendly model in the scoring irons to get that extra spin.
The Tour VT sole offers a sharp leading edge to cut through the easily and their is progressively more grooves as you get into the scoring irons.
When you it slightly off center, there is almost no deviation in distance and accuracy.
Overall very impressed with these irons.

Who Are The Srixon Zxi4 Irons for?
The Srixon Zxi4 are not super game improvers. They are mix between game improvement and hollow body players distance irons.
They are perfect for high to mid handicappers who want max distance without sacrificing the forgivness of a game improvement model.
These are great for mid to low handicapper to use the long irons and something more accurate in the shorter, scoring irons.
We were really impressed with the sound and feel, so this will be perfect for golfers who rank sound and feel highly.
