MyGolfSpy Ball Lab is where we quantify the quality and consistency of golf balls. Today, we’re reviewing the 2023 Srixon Z-Star XV (9th Generation)To learn more about our test process, click here.
About the Srixon Z-Star XV
Once considered a high-spin golf ball, the Z-Star XV ha become more of a middle-of-the-road offering. Off the driver, it’s not dissimilar from the Pro V1x and, while that’s a high-spin ball by Titleist standards, you can expect less spin than you’ll find with the Z-Star Diamond and stock Z-Star.
The same holds true for irons where the XV spins less than the others in the Srixon Z-Star lineup.
Srixon has the capability to produce the XV in both Indonesia and Japan but all three boxes in our sample were made in Indonesia while our Z-Star Diamond sample was made in Japan.
Key Takeaways
The quality doesn’t appear to match the standard of the Z-Star Diamond but the XV tested within the average range for Ball Lab.With an average compression of 94, the XV is the firmest of the Z-Star offerings.Srixon Z-Star XV Construction
Of the current generation of Srixon Z-Star family of golf balls, the XV has undergone the most significant change. Previous iterations of the XV offered four-piece construction but the newest model is a three-piece design.
It’s been a day since news dropped that LIV Golf has been denied Official World Golf Ranking points, and there’s one inescapable conclusion.
The powers that be in the OWGR consider LIV to be exhibition golf.
OWGR chairman Peter Dawson, in a letter to LIV CEO Greg Norman and COO Gary Davidson, didn’t use those words. But he did use these:
“The (OWGR) Board Committee has determined the current structure (of LIV) is not consistent with the underlying principles of fairness and meritocracy on which the OWGR system is based.”
The key word here is meritocracy. As in LIV isn’t one.
