Srixon

Srixon is the golf brand of Japanese sporting-goods giant Sumitomo Rubber Industries, with a strong tour presence through players like Hideki Matsuyama, Brooks Koepka, and Shane Lowry. The Z-Star and Z-Star XV golf balls are tour-validated three-piece urethane balls priced below Pro V1, making them one of the best value-to-performance options in the premium ball category. Srixon irons (ZX5, ZX7) and ZX drivers offer tour-level performance and forged feel at competitive pricing. The brand sits between Titleist and the value tier — a strong choice for serious players who want premium performance without paying top-of-market prices.
