The Srixon ZX4 Mk II is the forgiveness-first member of Srixon's ZX Mk II lineup, and it makes no apologies for that. Where the ZX5 and ZX7 are forged players' irons, this one is cast, hollow-bodied, and built to get the ball up and out for golfers who need help doing exactly that. The 27-degree 7-iron loft tells you the rest of the story. This club is chasing distance and launch, not shot-shaping.
Hollow construction is what lets Srixon pull this off. The face flexes more at impact, so mishits toward the toe or low on the face hold their speed better than they would on a solid cast head. A Speed Pocket in the sole adds to that on thin strikes, which is where a lot of higher-handicap misses happen. Add a wide sole that glides through turf and resists digging, and you have an iron that forgives the two things amateurs struggle with most: face contact and fat shots.
The tradeoff is honesty. Strong lofts and a hollow body mean this is not a workable, feedback-rich iron for someone who wants to flight shots down or shape them on command. That is fine. The ZX4 Mk II knows what it is and who it serves, and it does that job well without pretending to be a players' iron in a game-improvement shell.
In short
The Srixon ZX4 Mk II (2023) is a maximum-forgiveness iron for slower swings and higher handicaps. It carries a $849 MSRP.

The head is cast rather than forged, which keeps costs down and lets Srixon build the hollow interior that drives ball speed. Inside, the thin, flexible face works like a fairway wood at a smaller scale, springing at impact to add distance and protect speed on off-center hits. The Speed Pocket cut into the sole supports the lower portion of the face, so shots struck thin still launch and carry instead of falling short. A wide sole does two jobs here. It pushes the center of gravity low and back for the high launch these strong lofts need to stay playable, and it keeps the leading edge from digging on steep or heavy contact. The result is a chunky, confidence-inspiring shape at address with a topline that reads forgiving, not delicate.
The 7-iron is 27 degrees, which is strong for the class. That is how the club gains distance, but it means gapping matters. Pair it with wedges that fit below the set pitching wedge so you do not leave a big yardage gap between your shortest iron and your first wedge.
The ZX5 Mk II is a forged, one-piece players' distance iron with tighter dispersion and more feedback. The ZX4 Mk II is cast and hollow-bodied for more forgiveness, higher launch, and easier distance. If you want help getting the ball up and holding speed on mishits, the ZX4 is the pick. If you strike it well and want more control, look at the ZX5.
Yes. This is a super game improvement iron, so the hollow body, Speed Pocket, and wide sole are aimed squarely at players who need forgiveness on face contact and turf interaction. It is one of the more forgiving options that still looks like an iron rather than a hybrid.
Hollow-body irons tend to feel slightly more muted and less connected than forged blades, and the ZX4 Mk II is no different. Srixon tunes the internal structure to soften the click, but if you are coming from soft forged irons, expect a firmer, more powerful sensation rather than a buttery one. Most golfers in this category prefer the added speed to the feel tradeoff.
Srixon designed the ZX Mk II line to blend, so combo sets are common. A frequent build puts ZX4 Mk II in the long irons for launch and forgiveness, then switches to ZX5 Mk II in the scoring irons for control. A fitter can match the transition point to your swing so the set flows without a distance or trajectory jump.
