SRIXON ZXI UTILITY IRONS

This depends on how you already perform with certain clubs in your bag – specifically, your long irons and fairway woods.

We all know long irons can be notoriously difficult to hit, yet they can be essential in achieving the distance and accuracy we need to reach the pin. Fairways, on the other hand, also offer great distance but are more lacking in the accuracy department. A utility iron is designed to give you the best of both worlds.

So if you’re looking for the accuracy of an iron combined with the distance and easy-hitting nature of a fairway wood, a Srixon ZXi utility iron belongs in your bag.

At first glance from afar, your long irons may resemble a Srixon ZXi utility iron. But on closer inspection, you’ll find they are distinctly different in many ways.

They’re roughly the same length, but the head on your utility iron will be significantly larger and more rounded towards the base. Closer to what you’d expect from a fairway wood, but not to that extent.

Because of this, you can expect a vastly different swing shape and effect when you catch the ball. If anything, you’ll find a Srixon ZXi utility much easier to hit than your long irons.

Because a utility iron is designed to offer relief for golfers who struggle with their long irons, starting a beginner off with a Srixon ZXi utility iron may not be the best move.

They should try to experience a full range of traditional clubs – including the long irons – before moving onto more modern or advanced options.

If, after a while, a beginner is still seriously struggling with the long irons, then adding a utility iron to their bag will definitely help.

Most golfers choose to carry only one utility iron in their bag, as it’s usually not one of the most regularly used clubs.

So if you’re in the market for a utility iron, one Srixon ZXi utility will likely be ideal.

Just be sure to choose the right one for you! With three different loft options available, you can choose the club that’s built to deliver higher strikes, flatter strikes, or somewhere in the middle. Whatever works best for your game.
