Srixon Z565 Shafts


Wedgie

Recommended Posts

I had some time to kill today so went to golfers warehouse to hit all the drivers. Pulled a Z565 out of the demo bin and it was easily 20 yards longer than all the new stuff. It had a HZRDUS yellow installed. I'm curious if anyone knows if this is the real deal shaft or a “made for Srixon” shaft? I looked at srixon.com and the black and yellow HZRDUS shafts are options but still not sure.

 

Any help is appreciated.

 

Thanks,

 

Wedgie

It's a no ipcharge shaft from Srixon so it's not the handcrafted version. PX non handcrafted are built to the same specs as their handcrafted.

 

If it works for you with that head does it really matter if it's a real deal or made for?

Thank you for the info. Yes it worked for me and I made the purchase on the spot. I need distance and this gave it to me and the most accurate of the lot too. I was really just curious because I saw it was a no up charge shaft and could not believe the difference the shaft made for me. I'm talking 30 years of golf and have never seen results like this kind of difference. If I get half the results I got from the monitor on the course it will really help me.

They are not the same shafts... Read the article that MGS did late last year. Industry insiders who work for shaft companies who I've spoken to say the marketing says they're the same, but they're not even close. Watered-down, built for the masses, and if they were the same, why is one $300-$400 aftermarket? That should tell you all you need to know.

There is an “handcrafted” stamp on the non-mass produced ones.

But, if the mass produced one works, it's all good.

I read a bit about this and just checked my shaft and it does have the hand crafted logo on it so I guess I got the real deal after all. I've been out driven by an 80 year old, all my buddies and a one armed guy so any extra distance I can get is appreciated.

This is one of the things that happens with trade in/ use club markets. For a place that goes by the pga value guide, there isn't an allowance for shafts. In the OPs case it appears he got a hand crafted shaft for a great price. In other cases you may get a made for. Impossible to tell unless you know what you are looking for.

 

Hope the club works for you on the course. If not, you might be able to get your money back just on the shaft alone.

Mass produced and "Made for" are two very different things. In this case the Mass Produced line is still a true aftermarket shaft and nearly identical to the Handcrafted line. The only real difference is that the Handcrafted line maybe has slightly tighter tolerances and is more expensive.

Non handcrafted versions are not made for. I have hzrdus yellow shafts in my driver and fairway wood. Both are aftermarket and neither are handcrafted

Yep that's correct from I've heard and read. We have a guy in our group that is pretty “plugged in” with the equipment, and has lots of people on the inside. One is produced by machine the other is hand made, there are some differences in the shafts, but not much they both go through good QC measures so even if it it's the machine made product, it is still a really really good shaft.

And per their lead designer their hc and non hc are built to same specs. Just that the San Diego techs doing the work can only crank out a limited number of shafts per day

But this isn't about made for shaft. It's the real deal hzrdus yellow

Semantics may be an issue here. I think the article I posted covers the topic perfectly.

If you are inferring this is same thing as Callaway's HZRDUS T800 then you are misinformed.

 

Let this article settle whether the non-handcrafted version is legit or not.

Are you still saying its not a real deal shaft or did I miss when you changed your tune?

Other than your first post saying its not the same shaft and its a watered down version you haven't stated/clarified your point. I'm not that smart so I'm just trying to understand what exactly you are saying/claiming.

 

If this is your point then we are in agreement - "Like some others, Cobra is using a non-Handcrafted version of the Project X. While machine produced, the structure and bend profile are the same as the Handcrafted version."

Love you dude, but the article is about made for shafts that have the appearance of aftermarket shafts. That's not the case here so the article really has nothing to do with hzrdus handcrafted vs non handcrafted

I played the club today and it is definitely 20 yards longer and straighter out on the course than what I am coming from. I'm fairly certain this is a bit too much shaft for me but it has opened my eyes to what a high level fitting will do for a guy like me if I got the right shaft and not the minimal choices I get on a fitting cart. I watch some of the TXG videos and thought no way. Now I'm thinking I need to go to Toronto.

I was alternating between the Mizuno ST180 and Cobra F8. Stock shafts in each. I was fit for both. Interestingly enough the fitter had me at 11.5 loft on Mizuno and the Cobra rep (I won the F8 at an outing) had me at 8.5.
