Srixon Releases New Z-STAR Series Golf Balls

Srixon has released the latest generation of its acclaimed and popular Z-STAR Series golf balls, which have been engineered to offer that attractive combination of distance, optimised spin and stopping power around the greens.

Z-STAR Series

A highlight of the latest Z-STAR Series is the newly formulated, extra thin, premium urethane cover made with biomass. This innovative cover is specifically designed to withstand all conditions faced on the course, ensuring each Z-STAR Series model maintains its tour-calibre performance throughout rounds of play. 

In addition to the new biomass cover, the Z-STAR Series also features Spin Skin+ coating. This thin layer of specialised urethane increases the cover’s friction, resulting in enhanced approach shots and greenside spin. Additionally, the use of a stronger urethane paint in this generation helps improve resistance to dirt and grime, providing players superior spin control and extra versatility around the greens.

Joe Miller, Srixon Europe, Product Manager, commented: "Our approach to this generation of the Z-STAR Series was to produce a more durable ball without compromising performance. This generation’s unique cover and stronger coating help improve the spin performance specific to each ball, while our team has improved distance and control to provide golfers purer performance from tee to green."

Core Evolution

The newly formulated FastLayer DG Core 2.0, consisting of three unique formulas, lies at the core of the Z-STAR Series. Starting soft at the centre and gradually firming from the inside out, this core design ensures optimum spin and distance upon impact, while still delivering Srixon’s signature feel.  

FastLayer DG Core 2.0 also enables optimal core evolution for each model, providing even more distinction between the ball options. The Z-STAR model, with reduced compression at the centre of its already soft core, minimises driver spin for increased distance, softer feel, and enhanced greenside spin. The Z-STAR XV features added firmness partway through the core, and boosts ball speed for greater distance and improved iron spin. Lastly, the Z-STAR DIAMOND, with its slightly firmer core and reduced compression, minimises driver spin, resulting in exceptional distance off the tee while maintaining greenside spin. 

Z-STAR DIVIDE

Also included in the Z-STAR Series is Srixon’s Z-STAR DIVIDE model. Offering unmatched visibility on the course, the distinctive two-tone design of this ball, known as 50/50 Visual Performance, allows golfers to see the game from a whole new perspective.

Joe Miller, Srixon Europe, Product Manager, said: "For visual players who like to track their ball in the air and around the greens, the DIVIDE is a game changer. The yellow/white contrast creates a spinning strobe effect, allowing golfers to easily gauge the rate of spin with their Wedges. When you add in the 360° seam line on the greens for better alignment and roll, this ball can enhance consistency in the areas of your game that matter most." 

Despite their unique colourway design, the DIVIDE golf balls incorporate the same tour-calibre feel, speed, and distance technology found in Z-STAR model.
