Srixon Z-Star Diamond

Srixon’s tour-level balls optimize distance with a very thin cover. This allows for a larger core that reacts with less spin compared to some higher-compression cores, increasing the potential for energy and distance. However, because these balls have to be good for all types of shots, the new models have a slightly thicker cover to improve feel and spin. Although that would normally reduce distance because of higher spin, a new, deeper dimple pattern is used to counteract this effect.

Is it for you?

Z-STAR ♦: It features the XV’s extra resilient core to appeal to faster swing speeds, but a thicker, softer cover gives extra spin on iron shots as well as chips and pitches.
