Srixon ZXi4 boasts a top four finish in this year's best game-improvement iron test. Accuracy is the name of the game. ZXi4 beats out other strong competitors to claim second overall in our accuracy scoring category. Accuracy is our highest weighted scoring category and this placement propels ZXi4 to its overall position. For distance, Srixon ZXi4 is below average, which holds it back from finishing higher on the podium. If you're looking for an accurate and forgiving game-improvement iron off-the-rack, Srixon ZXi4 is a great option.
► You want immediate accuracy: Accuracy is a key ingredient for success on the golf course. Long term, you are going to see improvement in your scores the closer to the green you are or being on the green more consistently. Srixon ZXi4 is the second best game-improvement iron for accuracy. For accuracy, we focus on strokes gained. Strokes gained ties in several metrics, but most importantly it is how accurate an iron is on or near the green within our testing conditions of a 5-iron, 7-iron, and pitching wedge.
✖︎ You want off-the-rack distance: Relative to the field, Srixon ZXi4 is surprisingly among the shorter game-improvement irons. If you’re craving distance, this will be an immediate turn-off. Yet, the lack of distance could be a blessing in disguise long term. Ultimately, you have to decide.
