Game Improvement Fairway Wood

Srixon has always been better known for its tour irons than its game-improvement clubs, so the Z 355 from 2015 was a bit of a surprise. It took the forgiveness that higher-handicap golfers need and built it into a chassis that still looked like something a Srixon staffer might carry. The result is a hollow-construction iron that launches the ball high, gets it airborne easily, and hides its mistakes better than most players expect from a company that mostly talks to good ballstrikers.

This is a distance iron with a cavity back and a thin, fast face. Srixon used a hollow body in the long irons to move weight low and back, which is why the ball comes off the face on a steep, climbing flight. If you struggle to get long irons up in the air, the Z 355 does a lot of that work for you.

Where it fits: mid to high handicappers who want extra carry and a bailout on off-center hits, without playing an iron that looks like a shovel at address. It won't win beauty contests against Srixon's forged blades, but it was never trying to.

• You lose distance and height on long irons and want the club to help get the ball up.
• A mid to high handicap that produces plenty of off-center strikes and needs the forgiveness.
• You like the idea of a Srixon iron but need more help than the tour models offer.
• Steep divot-takers who want a wider sole that resists digging.
• Anyone chasing extra carry without moving into a super-oversized, chunky-looking iron.

Câu hỏi thường gặp

Is the Srixon Z 355 a forgiving iron?

Yes. The hollow long-iron construction and thin face keep ball speed up on mishits, and the low, deep center of gravity makes the ball easy to launch. It's built for mid to high handicappers, so forgiveness is the whole point of the design.

How is the Z 355 different from the Z 545 and Z 745?

The Z 355 is the game-improvement model in that 2015 lineup. The Z 545 is a players' distance cavity back for better mid handicappers, and the Z 745 is a forged tour iron for skilled ballstrikers. The 355 has more offset, a thicker topline, higher launch, and more built-in forgiveness than either of those.

Does the Z 355 launch the ball high?

It does. Srixon tagged it as a high-launch iron and designed the hollow body to move weight low and back, so the ball comes off the face on a steep, climbing flight. If your long irons come out low and short, this set is meant to fix exactly that.

Is the Srixon Z 355 still worth buying used?

For a budget-minded high handicapper, it can be. It's from 2015, so newer game-improvement irons have gained a little ball speed and better feel from face tech, but the 355 still launches easily and forgives misses. Check the grooves and face for wear before you buy, since a decade of use adds up.

What shaft came in the Srixon Z 355?

Stock options included steel and graphite depending on the fitting, with Srixon offering lighter graphite shafts to help slower swingers add height and speed. If you're buying used, confirm which shaft and flex is in the set, since that changes the launch and feel more than most people expect.
