RoverRick Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 I thought Srixon was the ball division of Cleveland. Of course Srixon may be more marketable in Asia than Cleveland.

msp1404 Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 I talked to a Cleveland rep a few months ago and he said they will keep producing Srixon balls, but they will not be selling Srixon irons or drivers in America. He said they sell a lot better in Europe and Japan. Thats probably why Graeme McDowell uses Srixon irons and not Cleveland. I cant recall any American Tour players playing Srixon anymore (Jim Furyk used to). Of course with the internet you can pretty much get whatever clubs you want.

ZenGolfer Posted August 19, 2012 Author Share Posted August 19, 2012 I thought Srixon was the ball division of Cleveland. Of course Srixon may be more marketable in Asia than Cleveland. That would be incorrect. Cleveland is owned by Srixon, which is a HUGE golf company in Japan. Srixon is second only to Bridgestone/Tourstage in Japan.

From what I understand, Srixon doesnt plan to release any more Srixon clubs in America because those clubs would only compete with their Cleveland brand. No sense having to promote 2 brands when you can just promote 1. "I suppose its better to be a master of 7 than to be vaguely familiar with 14." - Chick Evans Whats in my Sun Mountain 2.5+ stand bag?

RoverRick Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 I misspoke, I should have said, I thought Cleveland was the club division and Srixon was the ball division. But it has been explained.

skihippy Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 OK so what your saying is that Srixon came out with a new adjustable driver so Cleveland will have one soon..

ZenGolfer Posted August 21, 2012 Author Share Posted August 21, 2012 OK so what your saying is that Srixon came out with a new adjustable driver so Cleveland will have one soon.. Heard they are following the pack Its certainly possible. IMO, if you want to be competitive in the driver market you will need to have an adjustable driver.

ZenGolfer Posted August 22, 2012 Author Share Posted August 22, 2012 You're right, though I really hope that the at least one of the biggies offers a one piece driver..God, I hope so...... Fairwasy & Greens 4ever..... I know that Mizuno has made it VERY clear that they have no interest in making an adjustable driver but then again, most people wouldnt say Mizuno is a serious player in the driver market.

EdGolf Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 I thought Srixon already did an adjustable driver - Z Star or something like that last year for the US market but I believe this is the first for the Japanese market. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ice Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 I've wanted to buy a Z-Star driver on the bay for a while now simply to get my hands on a DROMOS for half the price... those shafts are insane!

Lambo Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 Ice, I picked up a used Z-Star driver at the Edwin Watts for a 100 bucks out the door! I've not had a chance to get it on the course but on the range it is a monster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lambo Posted September 25, 2012 Share Posted September 25, 2012 Well i finally got out to the course with the driver. Needless to say, not the best day for trying a new one out. Why can't the time on the range carry over to the course? I'll give it a couple of more trys to really get a feel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
