New irons just arrived. Blended srixon zxi5 (4,5i), zxi7 (6-8i) and blades (9i-gw).  The pw and gw are the same head so we specced different lengths and had one bent 2 strong and the other 2 weak. Then I did the red paint fill on the gw to tell them apart

LOVE Srixons. I have 3 sets of Srixon irons, Z745, Z565, and ZX5. The Z565 feel better and have a lower launch angle than the ZX5. Other than that, they play basically the same. The 7 series is not as forgiving. You definitely lose more distance on off center hits.

I hesitate on bending my clubs that much. You are increasing and decreasing bounce. With the ZX series, I'd be more worried about increasing bounce because they already have a shitton of bounce with the V shaped sole.

Agree on all points and particularly the wedges. Did the same with my last set of blades that also didn’t have a gw head. Their soles were more traditional so less of a concern. Couple rounds in and it hasn’t been an issue with the Srixons but was a bit worried when ordering. Fortunately it was through a friend that has a few pro shops in his portfolio in resort management. I got his pricing and the irons plus a 3w were ~$1k so it wasn’t too much to risk on the wedge experiment 2.0.

Anyone out there a league manager or responsible for setting up a weekly (daily, monthly, whatever) game? I have a side project that I could use some feedback on that should help you create teams in a balanced manner. Or if you use a tool for this already, what tool do you use (Excel counts)?
