From the InBox today.... Srixon Announces Newly Redesigned Q-STAR Golf Ball for Better Balanced Performance HUNTINGTON BEACH, Calif. — July 17, 2017 — SRIXON® announces launch of the newly redesigned Q-STAR® golf ball for golfers who demand balanced performance from a more durable, two-piece ball offering. The Srixon Q-STAR is available in Pure White™ and Tour Yellow™ and officially launches in North America on August 18, 2017. Srixon is a tour-proven golf manufacturer with premium golf balls and club offerings popular with golfers around the world. The Q-STAR golf ball utilizes the same premium technologies found in Srixon's higher-priced tour balls but offers them in a 2-piece construction that is more durable and affordable. The new Q-STAR features a lower-compression Energetic Gradient GrowthTM Core, a new third generation Spin Skin™ coating, and a new, more efficient 338 Aerodynamic Speed Dimple™ Pattern. These three technologies combine to deliver balanced performance: longer, more accurate driving distance, better iron control, and improved greenside spin. “The Q-STAR's built-in tour technologies should help golfers see great performance in every aspect of their golf game,” said Michael Ross, Senior Product Manager at Srixon. “This is the golf ball for players who seek maximum playability from a more durable, 2-piece design.” The key technologies inside the new Q-STAR include: · Lower-Compression Energetic Gradient Growth Core. Q-STAR's core technology uses variable stiffness to deliver better feel and exceptional distance on every shot. · Third Generation Spin Skin Coating. This latest iteration of Srixon's proven ball coating is more elastic with less bonding points so it produces more consistent spin from any lie — especially the rough. · Aerodynamic 338 Speed Dimple Pattern. Along with more control in the wind, this dimple pattern reduces drag to maximize distance. The Srixon Q-STAR golf ball officially launches in North America on August 18, 2017, at a MAP of $24.99 per dozen.

We shared this with you on the blog in January - but you should be able to buy these suckers starting April 14th. Got to try the new Q-STAR Tour ball in Florida last week - I really like the performance and, at $29.99/dozen, I really like the price.... SRIXON INTRODUCES THE NEW Q-STAR TOUR GOLF BALL: TOUR PERFORMANCE FOR GOLFERS WITH MODERATE SWING SPEEDS HUNTINGTON BEACH, CA – April 4, 2017 – SRIXON®, a global leader in high-performance golf equipment and a brand Dedicated to Improving Your Game™, is proud to introduce the new Q-STAR® TOUR golf ball. This all-new ball model delivers Tour Performance for Golfers With Moderate Swing Speeds. The SRIXON® Q-STAR® TOUR is available in Pure White™ and officially launches in North America on Friday, April 14, 2017. It carries a minimum advertised price of $29.99 per dozen. With the new Q-STAR TOUR, Srixon focused on developing a tour-caliber golf ball in a lower-compression design that helps moderate swing speed golfers achieve more distance on full shots while maintaining the excellent feel and greenside spin performance of its Z-STAR® Series offerings. It was designed especially for skilled golfers with moderate speeds who demand the performance and feel of a tour ball; the lower compression allows these players to achieve optimal distance on full shots. Golfers can expect the Q-STAR TOUR to deliver exceptional total performance from tee to green, including tremendous iron distance and tour-caliber greenside spin control. Key Technologies: · Lower-Compression Energetic Gradient Growth Core. The E.G.G. core is easier to compress with lower driver spin for impressive distance and accuracy on full shots. · Urethane Cover With Spin Skin Coating. Premium cover and advanced coating promote soft feel with enhanced greenside spin control. · 324 Speed Dimple Pattern. The low drag design improves flight performance for longer distance with more control. “Q-STAR TOUR was designed primarily for good players with moderate swing speeds. The problem we identified is that these golfers aren't optimizing their performance by playing a high-compression tour ball because they aren't able to compress it, so they end up sacrificing distance off the tee and with their irons,” said Michael Ross, Senior Product Manager for Golf Balls. “These golfers don't need to play a high-compression tour ball just so they have the excellent greenside spin performance that they're used to. They would benefit greatly from playing a ball that offers the same great greenside performance but is easier to compress. That's why we developed the lower-compression Srixon Q-STAR TOUR.” The new Srixon Q-STAR TOUR comes to market having already been recognized as a Gold Medal winner on the 2017 Golf Digest Hot List – with 5 STARS for Feel, Performance and Innovation. Independent Test Results: Srixon worked with Golf Laboratories to conduct independent outdoor robot testing on the new Q-STAR TOUR golf ball against key competitors. The results proved it delivers exceptional tee-to-green performance at an incredible value: · Advanced core and dimple technology enable the Srixon Q-STAR TOUR to deliver longer driver distance than many of the similarly priced and more expensive, ionomer cover competitor balls and almost all of the more expensive, urethane cover competitor balls tested. With very low driver spin, including low sidespin, the Q-STAR TOUR minimizes the effects of hooks and slices so golfers are able to drive the ball with more accuracy. · Where Q-STAR TOUR really stands out is mid-iron distance. The core and highly resilient mid-layer work together to generate high ball speed with a high launch angle. These favorable launch conditions create substantially more distance for the Q-STAR TOUR than most competitor balls tested. · The Srixon Q-STAR TOUR particularly distinguishes itself from similarly priced or more expensive ionomer cover balls in greenside spin performance. Thanks to the high friction caused by the Spin Skin coating, the Q-STAR TOUR demonstrates dramatically more spin around the green than even the best performing ionomer cover balls tested. It also compares closely in spin performance to competitor urethane balls tested.

TESTERS ANNOUNCED Srixon Q STAR Tour Golf Balls Here's a forum-only test opportunity for y'all, for what may be the hottest slightly under the radar ball in the game today, the Q STAR Tour from Srixon. The Q-STAR Tour is a 3-piece, urethane cover Tour-level ball design to fit a wide range of amateur golfers. It's a tad softer than Srixon's Z STAR balls with a price tag ($29.99/dozen) that'll make you smile. We're looking for 8 of you to test and review the Q STAR Tour and let the forum - and the golfing world - what you think! To apply, please tell us in this thread: First name/state or province Current ball Driver swing speed 7-iron carry distance Favorite amateur - Francis Ouimet or Bobby Jones We'll announce the testers next week. Good luck!!!

Some finish in Phoenix, eh? Here's what Matuyama had in his bag... MATSUYAMA WINS IN PLAYOFF AT THE PHOENIX OPEN HUNTINGTON BEACH, CA – February 8, 2016 – Srixon® and Cleveland® Golf congratulate staffer Hideki Matsuyama for his victory at the 2016 Waste Management Phoenix Open at TPC Scottsdale, in Scottsdale, Az. Matsuyama had to overcome a late two-stroke deficit in regulation play, finishing with back to back birdies to force a playoff on Sunday. Matsuyama carded a four-under 67 to finish regulation play tied at 14-under 270. Matsuyama ultimately clinched the win by tapping in for par on the fourth hole of a marathon sudden-death playoff. “It was a blast playing in front of all these people,” said Matsuyama through an interpreter. “It was a dream come true. Maybe from the outside I looked calm, but I was nervous inside. I played well all day long and so it just carried over into the playoff holes. I'm really happy that I won.” This Phoenix Open victory represents Matsuyama's second win on the U.S. PGA Tour, making him only the second Japanese player to earn multiple wins on the U.S. PGA Tour. Matsuyama, who finished tied for second at last year's Phoenix Open, earned his previous win at the 2014 Memorial Tournament. Matsuyama, who has also won six times on the Japan Tour, is now projected to rise to 12th in the world rankings. Matsuyama played with Srixon's new 4th generation Z STAR® XV ball with SpinSkin® Technology, a Srixon ZR-30 driver (9.5°), Srixon Z-945 irons (#4-PW), and Cleveland Golf 588® RTX® 2.0 wedges (50°, 56°, 60°). Matsuyama wears a Srixon hat, a Srixon glove, and carries a Srixon bag and umbrella. For more information on Hideki Matsuyama and the Journey to Better, please visit: http://srixon.com/thejourney/

This came across the InBox this morning from Srixon/Cleveland - it's an interesting take on Utility Irons. We tend to think of them as driving irons, but Srixon appears to be taking a different approach - one similar to PING with its Crossover clubs and Hogan with its Ft. Worth 15 hi irons.... SRIXON UTILITY IRONS ARE DOMINATING ON THE PGA TOUR Srixon was the most used brand of utility iron at the Safeway Open, with 10 in play. At the CIMB Classic, both Anirban Lahiri (T3) and Keegan Bradley (6) had a Srixon Z U45 utility iron in the bag (specs below). Our staffers and those outside our staff praise the Z U45 and Z U65 for their incredible feel coupled with phenomenal trajectory and distance control . TECHNICAL NOTE: Our tour reps have found the most success with these clubs when building them as an extension of the iron set. Essentially, they are built to match the specs of the irons – same weight, same shaft, and in line with iron set length. They have seen this recipe work over and over. In building them to iron specs, you essentially create a club that gives you the benefits of a hybrid (easier to hit, easier to get up and land soft), but you have the consistency and predictability of an iron. The last thing a tour player wants with a club he uses to approach greens is a club that produces an unpredictable distance or trajectory. When built to iron specs you get a club that players can flight up or down when needed, that goes the correct distance every time and is overall easier to hit than a long iron. All the while, because it is forged and cosmetically looks great address, it stays right in line with their iron sets from a look and feel standpoint. These utility irons aren't your seasonal driving irons, either – once they go in play, they tend to stay there. Long hitters may manipulate the top of their bag depending on a course, but mostly they stay. It is very rare to find a hybrid or driving iron type club that is easy to hit on multiple trajectories, hit a consistent number, and not have a left bias (for right-handers). This club is all of these! Cool Fact: When Will McGirt and Jon Curran were in The Memorial playoff earlier this year, there were 4 Srixon Z U45 utilities in play! Anirban Lahiri: Srixon Z U45 3 utility iron, 20° (bent to 21°), with Nippon N.S. Pro Modus3 Tour 120 X flex shaft Keegan Bradley: Srixon Z U45 2 utility iron, 18° (bent to 19°), with Nippon N.S. Pro Modus3 Tour 125 X flex shaft Srixon Z U45 3 utility iron, 20° (bent to 22°), with Nippon N.S. Pro Modus3 Tour 125 X flex shaft These will definitely be on the table when we visit Srixon in November!! Thoughts on the use of Utility irons? Strictly a driving iron in your view or can these be a versatile alternative to hybrids, especially for those of us who can hook them off them planet? For me, Utility Irons are always an acid test for how well I'm swinging at any given point in time. When I'm hitting them flush from the fairway or rough, I know my game's in good shape. When I'm not, well....

This came into the InBox today -- another entry into the soft ball category.... SRIXON INTRODUCES NEW SOFT FEEL GOLF BALLS: “TOTAL PERFORMANCE HAS NEVER FELT BETTER” HUNTINGTON BEACH, CA – June 21, 2016 – SRIXON®, a global leader in high-performance golf equipment and a brand Dedicated to Improving Your Game™, is proud to introduce the new Soft Feel and Soft Feel Lady golf balls. Now in its 10thgeneration, the new Srixon Soft Feel golf ball provides even better feel on all shots, improved greenside spin and incredible distance and accuracy from tee to green. The new Srixon Soft Feel Lady golf ball features the same performance benefits as the Soft Feel with a slightly higher launch. The new Srixon Soft Feel is ideal for players that don't possess tour-level swing speed and who prefer softer feel. Thanks to three key innovations, Total Performance Has Never Felt Better: · Softer, Lower Compression Core. The Energetic Gradient Growth core in the new Soft Feel is dramatically softer. The result is a 60 compression golf ball that is 12 compression points softer than the previous generation. This means softer feel on all full shots without sacrificing the incredible distance and accuracy from tee to green. · Softer, Thinner Cover. The ionomer cover on the new Soft Feel is 11 percent thinner and 5 percent softer than the previous model, with the softest feel rating tested in the low-compression category*. The new cover provides more greenside spin and softer feel on all pitches, chips and putts. · New Aerodynamic Speed Dimple™ Design. The new Soft Feel cover features the 324 Speed Dimple pattern, which combines greater uniformity of dimple design with better surface coverage. This dimple pattern lowers drag to produce a more penetrating flight and maximize distance on full shots. “Srixon has significantly improved the feel of the new Soft Feel golf ball while also managing to enhance performance. It's designed to be incredibly long off the tee with improved greenside spin, performance that will help any golfer that doesn't swing like a tour pro,” said Mike Powell, President of Sales & Marketing for Srixon / Cleveland Golf / XXIO, North America. “We're excited that one of Srixon's most popular global offerings is even better – consumers will be, too.” Srixon staff professional Peter Jacobsen is helping promote the Soft Feel. The trusted tour veteran knows not every golfer should play a tour-level golf ball. “The Srixon Soft Feel is THE CHOICE for players who need distance and accuracy in a softer, low compression golf ball,” said Jacobsen. “Take it from someone who's seen a lot of people playing the wrong ball.” The new Srixon Soft Feel golf ball is available in two different color options, the new Soft White™ and Tour Yellow™ for Visual Performance™. The new Srixon Soft Feel Lady is available in Soft White and Passion Pink. They launch in North America on July 29, 2016, with a Minimum Advertised Price (MAP) of $19.99 per dozen.

"As a brand Dedicated to Improving Your Game, we ask ourselves every day: What truly helps golfers get better? What technologies would actually improve upon game-improvement," said Chris Beck, Srixon Brand Manager.

All Srixon Z 355 clubs - the driver, fairway, hybrid and irons - incorporate Action Mass to deliver incredible consistency with maximum distance and forgiveness. Z 355 clubs will be available for pre-booking on Friday, September 4, 2015, and will launch in North America on Friday, September 18, 2015.
