What we say...

The 2023 Srixon Z-Star is jam-packed with new technology designed to help golfers deliver more distance and better spin.

For 2023 Srixon have released their eighth generation of Z-Star, one of the best golf balls in the game. The brand claim that the new generation of balls will be the most complete package yet with “unmatched” performance and feel.

Srixon say this iteration of the Z-Star will be the most responsive yet. With an extra thin urethane cover golfers will see more spin on the shots around the green.

Partnered with the cover, the new Spin Skin+ coating creates increased friction between the club and the ball. This results in more control on approach shots and higher levels of spin on and around the green.

The Z-Star features Srixon’s unmistakable Speed Dimple, the 338 aerodynamic dimple design that is used across the brand’s family, and is key to the success of many of their balls.

The dimples help with the launch of the ball even in most testing conditions. Their deep dimensions produce less drag which in turn helps maintain a penetrating ball flight.

The new FastLayer DG Core is a key part of making the Z-Star perform how it does. The soft to firm design of the core is intended to give golfers a great feel off the face whilst delivering greater ball speeds.

The standard Z-star is engineered with a thin mid-layer and softer compression to prioritize a softer feel and approach shot spin.

What Srixon say about the Srixon Z-Star

Joe Miller, Product expert at Srixon Sports Europe

“Finding the right golf ball for your game is just as important as finding the right irons or driver.

“It’s the one piece of equipment you use on every single shot, which is why technological advances like the new Spin Skin+ and FastLayer DG Core give players confidence that their ball is going to react how it should and excel in every category that matters – more spin, bite, and speed.”
