I took the plunge and got these irons with Modus 105 shafts. and they are just awesome. Equivalent if not better than mizuno feel. And look awesome! No upcharge for shafts and grips. also, I received my custom order within one week. Best decision I've made in years and I've bought tons
David Bartsch 100%! Tried the 585’s in the longer irons and didn’t like the thicker sole too much so I stuck with the 785’s in my 5-6. David, yes, these are by far the purest irons I’ve ever owned. Just unbelievably good. I test irons religiously and these still come out on top. Funny I just tried the new Apex Pro 19’s earlier today and they didn’t even come close to my Srixon’s. The only other iron I thoroughly enjoy hitting are the P760’s, which I have a set on the way but my Srixons are here to stay, I plan on using the 760’s for those days where I need a change for a round or so but I will never get rid of my 785’s.
I actually got fitted for these last week! Handicap is 0, I currently play blades and these added 10-15 yards per iron. 7 iron went from 155 to 170! Couldn’t believe how good they are and I loved my blades!
I used to be someone who switched irons multiple times a year... Until I bought a combo set of the z765/z965 a year and a half ago. Haven't even had the urge to switch since. Srixon's irons look awesome and perform really well.
One of the biggest selling points about these irons is the price. I’ve seen them retailing for £699 4-PW which nowadays for a forged iron set is almost unthinkable. I’m waiting for my order to arrive! Great review as always.
After playing Hogan Apex Plus for years...I dont play that much any more so I needed forgiveness. Went the other direction for Mizuno MX1000 hot metals and have played them for years. Solid, forgiving clubs...but wanted a bit more "player" feel and looks. I was considering the JPX919 forged and stumbled across these...oooooooooo....lovely. Have a fitting set up at Club Champion for a head to head battle. Will report back....great reviews, Mark!
I am using the 765. No need for upgrade.. But I have to ring in the bell for the 4-iron! Such a versatile club for me in fairway, rough and of the tee! Especially of the tee! Long carry when swinging ok and stops quick. And so easy to hit low when needed!
I injured my knee (ACL surgery) a couple of months ago and have been looking at new irons to buy when I get back on the course early next year. I saw these in the pro shop the other day and thought they looked great 😍. When I get the all clear I’ll definitely test them out with a view to combo with the Z585 in the 4 & 5 iron.
A lot of people giving Srixon a try these days, I feel like their clubs are starting to get the recognition they deserve. You worded it perfectly: "help but looks".
Played black z745's now for about 3 seasons, lovely clubs! Had a look at customizing these and was a bit disappointed that they don't seem to offer X-Stiff shafts anymore. Do love my Nippon 130X shafts in my current sticks!
I game these and they are really great! Used to game the 765's for a while but they were a bit erratic on one or two shots struck a certain place on the face (flew like 10 meters further) for whatever reason and these don't seem to have these knuckle balls any more. Really awesome clubs. Forgiving and workable all in one...
I started playing again last year, bought a set of eight Srixon Z355 irons 3-SW, brand new off eBay for £150. Fantastic clubs, look great, similar v-sole as these, lovely feel. If I had the money and less sense I'd upgrade!
Just added the 785’s to the Bag (4-PW) and a Z85 Utility 3. First iron I have tried that truely has the best of both worlds; the play ability of a blade and the forgiveness & confidence at address of a cavity back...
Just got a set of 785’s a month ago. Just as you said great looking with some help. Starting to love them all ready. I’m looking foreword to next season with renewed enthusiasm.
Thanks Mark. Another great review. IMO you are the best in the business at giving honest, no hype reviews. I was just fitted for a combo set of PW-7 in Z785 and 6 & 5 in Z585 (switching from PING i200). Great feel and perfect launch for me. I cant wait to get them in so I can stair at them all winter! Spring cant get here soon enough... Cheers!
I have the Z765 and they are lovely. I think if you're going from a better player iron you might initially find these slightly chunky... But I adapted to that quite quickly. If you can't afford the Z785 I'd definitely recommend looking for a set of Z765 or even Z745's!! Also.... I think anyone could game these from tour to high handicappers! One of the best all round set of irons..... imo 😄
I also have the z765 and over the past year I've been telling everyone looking for new clubs to at least give Srixon a try. They appeal to such a broad range of golfers.
Excellent review Mark.I've purchase set of Z785 irons two weeks a go and still waiting for the delivery.I do feel lot happier about them after watching your positive review.This set will be my first set of Srixon irons ever,after many years of been a Mizuno fan i thought it's time to change.
I’m buzzing to see you game these. I was fitted in a combo 745 with 545 in the 5 iron. I love these!!! Feedback and feel is amazing with no noticeable difference (compared to my old cavity backs) on off centre strikes. Great, great brand!
Mark, thanks for doing the 'top line' comparison at the end. The only bit of the club you see just before you actually hit the ball being the top line - so something I always look for. If that is ugly - it ain't going in the bag. Thanks again.
Great review Mark. I’ve picked up the z765 earlier this season and couldn’t be happier. Definitely not the most forgiving, but for the size there aren’t many that can beat its’ performance.
I have the Z765 which is the prior model and I absolutely love them. Great irons just don’t be afraid to test because they aren’t a top brand. Well worth the money
Lovely looking club... playing a bladed set pw to 7. Looking to step back toward a little more forgiving irons. Playing off 17. These are very interesting! Where to try them??
Hi Mark love your reviews. Im going to american golf tomorow custom fit for mmc mp18 tomorow and was sitting here worried incase i cant have them but listerning to you reminds me that i also might be able to have them.
Mark just wondering if you can let us know what shafts you used on this (Modus 120 S or X)? Also whether or not you're still using that same shaft since it's Srixon's stock option?
Really digging the gridline/engineer table look when you're reviewing clubs nowadays. I just wonder how they perform when you do the Hideki pause at the top. Shame you didn't recreate that.
Just tested these today Mark. Tested against my old Taylormade R7's, Titleist AP3, and Ping i500. Had 5i 7i PW in all sets, hit probably 100 balls with stock straight shots, then prob another 100 doing the 9 shots (draw straight fade, low med high), and then some chipping with the PW's. Loved the srixon and titelist. Ping was nice but not as consistent for me, and not as workable. Next will be a fitting session to look at shaft length, weight, lie angle etc. as the demo sets were too short, and had different weight shafts in them. Cheers mate, keep up the good work 👍🏌️♂️
I’ve played a set of 545s for 3 seasons now. I will mess around with a driver test or wedges from season-to-season, but I don’t dare touch my irons. Srixon is dangerously underrated, and stateside you can’t find them in any Big Box golf retailer. They always perform well agains the major manufacturers in various golf magazines’ club tests. I suggest to anyone who’d listen to give the srixon products a test.
I have the previous model. The 745 and they are the best all around irons I’ve ever owned. And, that’s saying a lot, owning multiple mizuno mp sets and other comparable brands. They just feel and exactly how they look. Sexy.
Mark this video made me go get fitted for a new 785 set. Titliest guy my whole life. Great looking. The feel is like butter and the modus 105 S shaft is fantastic feel. Thanks for the video. Cheers from Philadelphia.
Great review, I play these irons. Kicked my jpx 900 forged outta the bag. They are forgiving as well and the workability is phenomenal. If you haven't hit these go out and do so, you won't be disappointed...
Same here! I am playing a 765/965 combo set and love them. I even hit them off the tee because I like them so much and maybe a bit because I fear I might kill someone with my driver ;-)
Srixon design nice gear, they hit my sweet spot here. Slightly higher lofts as per my current gamers which are old, ( 7 Iron-35 6 Iron-31 and 8-39 ). My 7 Iron carry is about 160-170, the adjustment in distances is hard with different clubs for me, can't rely on the club number.
Couldn't agree more. I reckon that manufacturers should ditch the 3-PW on clubs and just stamp the lofts. I see people who got TM 790's and rave about how far they can hit their 7 iron, I'm thinking 'that's not a 7 iron, it's a 5 1/2 iron!
Definitely considering these. In my opinion not as nice looking as the super gorgeous Titleist CB's, but they are half the price I think. Have the lofts been jacked a bit though? I thought I saw that the 7 iron was 32 degrees
Sadly- this is true. Long time Mizuno guy here, but the MP18 line and onward is using the new forging process and the irons are just not like the older Mizzys. Srixon being forged by Endo with using 1020 billet steel, makes the Srixons feel better. Hope Mizuno goes back to their older forging ways.
They are in the bag for 2019. Z785 5-PW, Modus 120s. Beautiful iron and great feel. Modus 120 was best shaft for me. The irons are just a fraction thicker topline than my mp-32. And a fraction thicker sole. Not much in it.
I probably would play Z585 but the Z785 look sexy. As an improving player, I would probably still want the forgiveness of the Z585 over the Z785, but maybe the 785s are worth a go.
Awaiting the arrival of the new 785's with S300 Shafts. it's a little over 3 weeks now but demand maybe the cause of the delay ...... yes I cannot wait that's why I am watching you tube video reviews :-) but I have been awaiting MC's view also.
Thinking of purchasing a used set of these irons at PGA Tour Superstore. Hit them in the sim and they felt great compared to my Taylormade SpeedBlades. Always heard Srixon made great irons but was really impressed. These felt softer and flew further than my current set. Probably because of a stronger loft? Not sure if they match my specs however of 1/2" short and 2 degrees flat. How hard would it be to adjust these irons? Thanks for the review, Mark.
There is a lot of very pretty player/GI irons: i500, MP18-MMC, JPX919, P760, P790, AP3. It cannot be bad when the Rogue (which is still a nice looking club) is one of least attractive of the main manufacturers. Cobra are the stand out which really need improve their looks (although the F8 hybrids and woods are very good looking). So much better than a couple of years ago
Only reason I didn’t go for these was cos I’d need a combo set and I didn’t like the look of the 585. So I bought the jpx919 forged instead. Srixon make fantastic clubs though.....great review as always😀👍
I’ve been waiting for this review for awhile now. I like the medium top line and the overall look is awesome. My next set of clubs will be forged. Decide between Srixon z-785 and Mizuno jpx 919 forged. You gave 919 forged a very good review also. Decision Decisions..., mmmm. Thx Mark
no comparison - Srixon 785 all the way, and twice on Sunday. mizuno f@#$k up the 919F this year, such a shame (they feel like crap compared to the Srixon, personally I think the 919HM feel way softer than the 919F) - if you are looking in this category of irons, I would compare the 785 to the MP18 line. MP18SC - 6-PW + 919 HM in the 4 ,5 (or the fli hi) - that's some goodness!
Reminds me if the Fly z plus review you did 3 years ago. In fact, I just bought some second hand after playing Rocketbalz for 6 years. Love the feel and the flight of the Fly z plus. Would you say these irons are much like the Fly z plus Mark ? I'm guessing slightly better 3 years down the line. Interesting vid, cheers
Hey Mark. I'm going to buy some of these in the spring. Unfortunately there is no one who carries a fitting cart for Srixon in my area so I have a quick question. I'm a 6-8 handicap depending on how often Im playing. Decent ball striker. Just wondering if these irons get a little chunkier with more offset in the 4 and 5 iron or would you go to the bigger style 585 or whatever they are if I'm looking for a little bigger look with a little more offset. Thanks bruh !!
Great review. I'm glad you've brought back the comparison to similar irons at the end as well. p.s. do these feel any better/different from the Z765 irons or are the changes only visual?
Because people are drawn to the big name eg callaway titleist ping tm and thier marketing hype. I had ping s56 for years and finally made the change to these and absolutely love them.
Mark, idk if you can drop some knowledge on the shafts theyre offering. If I recall, they are offering from what Ive read are a lot of of good quality shafts...and grips as well... Of course testing them & having a fitter goes a long way... but I think many consumers might just purchase based on numbers/feel without having product knowledge... Of course its our responsibility to research but your reviews are part of my research :)
Lovely Juvley... hit like, watch vid, get good content as expected! First glance these look a little like my mp63s! And they have that "sound" - hope to hit some of these, but they are a little harder to find! Cheers Bruh!!
Thanks for the great review Mark, and everyone else for their personal reviews. Can anyone tell me why its quite common to have 785's PW-7 but then 585's for long irons? I've had TM R7's for 10 years and they've gotten me from 32hc to 7, currently off 10. Getting a much needed upgrade, going from 90g shafts to prob 105-120g too. cheers
A blended 785/585 set is common as this allows an individual to have the club designed for work-ability and control in short or scoring irons while having a more forgiving club in the long irons. Also, being forged clubs, the lofts can be manipulated in a fitting to achieve optimal yardage gapping between clubs throughout the set. The aesthetics of the clubs compliment each other as well.
In the bag. Z785 5-PW with modus 120 stiff. Long, workable, great looks, feel is amazing. Love them
that would be exactly my choice. modus 120 stiff is a beast of a shaft
I took the plunge and got these irons with Modus 105 shafts. and they are just awesome. Equivalent if not better than mizuno feel. And look awesome! No upcharge for shafts and grips. also, I received my custom order within one week. Best decision I've made in years and I've bought tons
Scott Johnson exactly correct. I have the 785’s and the 1020 steel is absolutely spectacular, slightly softer than Mizuno’s 1025E imo
Mike Cerniglia still feel this way? I’m looking into these. Did you combo them at all?
Scott Johnson still feel this way? And did you combo with 585?
David Bartsch 100%! Tried the 585’s in the longer irons and didn’t like the thicker sole too much so I stuck with the 785’s in my 5-6. David, yes, these are by far the purest irons I’ve ever owned.

Srixon irons are so underrated I’ve been playing a blended 945/745 set for 3 years. They’re sick
These things look sick and performance to match. I got a blended set too. Was shocked how damn good they are
I am using the 765. No need for upgrade.. But I have to ring in the bell for the 4-iron! Such a versatile club for me in fairway, rough and of the tee! Especially of the tee! Long carry when swinging ok and stops quick. And so easy to hit low when needed!
Almdudler totally agree 4 iron very playable can do so much with it !!
Have played the Z745s for a few years and now looking at combo set of Zforged and Z785
I injured my knee (ACL surgery) a couple of months ago and have been looking at new irons to buy when I get back on the course early next year. I saw these in the pro shop the other day and thought they looked great 😍. When I get the all clear I’ll definitely test them out with a view to combo with the Z585 in the 4 & 5 iron.

Really awesome clubs. Forgiving and workable all in one...
I have the 785 7-pw combination with 5-6 585. Loving them as much as I loved my old mizunos
Hey man do you find much of a difference in the 585's? If you were to do it again would you just go all 785's or no?
I started playing again last year, bought a set of eight Srixon Z355 irons 3-SW, brand new off eBay for £150. Fantastic clubs, look great, similar v-sole as these, lovely feel. If I had the money and less sense I'd upgrade!
I always love supporting the smaller companies that do it as good as the big boys
Just added the 785’s to the Bag (4-PW) and a Z85 Utility 3. First iron I have tried that truely has the best of both worlds; the play ability of a blade and the forgiveness & confidence at address of a cavity back...
Had a fitting a few days ago...leaning toward these sticks.
Just got a set of 785’s a month ago. Just as you said great looking with some help. Starting to love them all ready. I’m looking foreword to next season with renewed enthusiasm.
Thanks Mark. Another great review. IMO you are the best in the business at giving honest, no hype reviews. I was just fitted for a combo set of PW-7 in Z785 and 6 & 5 in Z585 (switching from PING i200). Great feel and perfect launch for me. I cant wait to get them in so I can stair at them all winter! Spring cant get here soon enough... Cheers!
dufferjuice you enjoying the set still? Or do you want those i200s back? I’m leaning toward the Srixon myself
I play these. If you're in market go hit them. I'm so happy I bought them. Came from older Mizuno blades.
Almost exactly the same thing I just posted there. They feel exactly to same to me. I'm also enjoying them. Look superb in the bag to! 😁
I have the Z765 and they are lovely. I think if you're going from a better player iron you might initially find these slightly chunky... But I adapted to that quite quickly.
If you can't afford the Z785 I'd definitely recommend looking for a set of Z765 or even Z745's!!
Also.... I think anyone could game these from tour to high handicappers! One of the best all round set of irons..... imo 😄
I also have the z765 and over the past year I've been telling everyone looking for new clubs to at least give Srixon a try. They appeal to such a broad range of golfers.

Yes Mark they do look good. There's just so many good ones out there now that it would all come do to the numbers.
I’m buzzing to see you game these. I was fitted in a combo 745 with 545 in the 5 iron. I love these!!! Feedback and feel is amazing with no noticeable difference (compared to my old cavity backs) on off centre strikes. Great, great brand!
Mark, thanks for doing the 'top line' comparison at the end. The only bit of the club you see just before you actually hit the ball being the top line - so something I always look for. If that is ugly - it ain't going in the bag. Thanks again.
Great review Mark. I’ve picked up the z765 earlier this season and couldn’t be happier. Definitely not the most forgiving, but for the size there aren’t many that can beat its’ performance.
I'll be avin these irons and the Srixon z785 Driver in the bag for 2019.
I still put my old set of i506 irons in the bag every once in a while - Srixon know how to make a quality iron.
I have the Z765 which is the prior model and I absolutely love them. Great irons just don’t be afraid to test because they aren’t a top brand. Well worth the money
Lovely looking club... playing a bladed set pw to 7. Looking to step back toward a little more forgiving irons. Playing off 17. These are very interesting! Where to try them??
Hi Mark love your reviews. Im going to american golf tomorow custom fit for mmc mp18 tomorow and was sitting here worried incase i cant have them but listerning to you reminds me that i also might be able to have them.
Love my Srixon 765 irons. 5-pw Dynamic Gold S300 Super Lites. Feel, workability,
and confidence over the ball. Great Product !
Just ordered my new set. Beautiful looks and feels with forgiveness and consistent ball flight. Can't wait for them to arrive!
I keep putting these back in the bag. And I like new stuff, and am very fussy. Just better than everything else I try.
Defo on the trial list for next year's re-arming session....and very good value as well.
Mark just wondering if you can let us know what shafts you used on this (Modus 120 S or X)? Also whether or not you're still using that same shaft since it's Srixon's stock option?
Really digging the gridline/engineer table look when you're reviewing clubs nowadays. I just wonder how they perform when you do the Hideki pause at the top. Shame you didn't recreate that.
Just tested these today Mark.
Tested against my old Taylormade R7's, Titleist AP3, and Ping i500. Had 5i 7i PW in all sets, hit probably 100 balls with stock straight shots, then prob another 100 doing the 9 shots (draw straight fade, low med high), and then some chipping with the PW's.
Loved the srixon and titelist. Ping was nice but not as consistent for me, and not as workable.
Next will be a fitting session to look at shaft length, weight, lie angle etc. as the demo sets were too short, and had different weight shafts in them.
Cheers mate, keep up the good work 👍🏌️♂️
They do look nice. Like to see these more traditional looking irons with regular(ish) lofts, not chunky, little to no offset, with just a bit of help.
I’ve played a set of 545s for 3 seasons now. I will mess around with a driver test or wedges from season-to-season, but I don’t dare touch my irons.

Mark this video made me go get fitted for a new 785 set. Titliest guy my whole life. Great looking. The feel is like butter and the modus 105 S shaft is fantastic feel. Thanks for the video. Cheers from Philadelphia.
I have them from 4 to 7. And the blades 8 to P. I think they're very similar to the feel I have had from past Mizuno irons.
Still playin FG Tours from eons ago. Been considering new. These are gonna have to go against the 919 Forged for me I guess. Should be fun
Great review, I play these irons. Kicked my jpx 900 forged outta the bag. They are forgiving as well and the workability is phenomenal. If you haven't hit these go out and do so, you won't be disappointed...
They do make nice clubs... I gave owned srixon clubs in the past but they are hard to find in the UK.
Which is a pity... I would love to try these
I'm getting these. People are loving these. usually a mizuno or titleist guy, but I have to get these.
Was just fit today for a set of these P-5I. Love the look, feel, and performance I got.
Well done MC!! Don't even have to watch it all to know its top notch...
Hi Drake I am going to get u85 5and6. In Japan. Full 785s set would be great too I reckon.
Same here! I am playing a 765/965 combo set and love them. I even hit them off the tee because I like them so much and maybe a bit because I fear I might kill someone with my driver ;-)
Srixon design nice gear, they hit my sweet spot here.
Slightly higher lofts as per my current gamers which are old, ( 7 Iron-35 6 Iron-31 and 8-39 ).
My 7 Iron carry is about 160-170, the adjustment in distances is hard with different clubs for me, can't rely on the club number.
Couldn't agree more. I reckon that manufacturers should ditch the 3-PW on clubs and just stamp the lofts. I see people who got TM 790's and rave about how far they can hit their 7 iron, I'm thinking 'that's not a 7 iron, it's a 5 1/2 iron!
Thank you for this review, been waiting for it. These clubs look amazing
Excellent review! I would use them in short irons and combo the Z585 in the longer irons. beautiful club!
I’d give them a go. Look great no silly pumped up lofts. Great review as always.
They look great, combo set would be the way forward for me, just need to find somewhere nearby that sells them!!
Srixon are like titleist!...as I've said before...Just good quality irons with non of the pumped up Tech!...you get what you see, a quality product!
so i hit these bad boys with the new TT Elevate shaft. best combo and it beat off Titleist AP2 and Ping i210
Very useful stuff, Mark. Have the Z785s on the radar ( current using MP14s, which are now just about ready to donate to the Smithsonian). Thanks.
Definitely considering these. In my opinion not as nice looking as the super gorgeous Titleist CB's, but they are half the price I think. Have the lofts been jacked a bit though? I thought I saw that the 7 iron was 32 degrees
Been waiting on this for a few weeks now! Thanks Mark 👍🏻
Interesting that these dont go further than your MBs... 7i is a whopping 3 degrees stronger at 32
I play the Srixon Z545 and I love my Srixons
The Endo forging of these 785's actually has surpassed Mizuno since Mizuno went to the newer Grain Flow HD.
Sadly- this is true. Long time Mizuno guy here, but the MP18 line and onward is using the new forging process and the irons are just not like the older Mizzys. Srixon being forged by Endo with using 1020 billet steel, makes the Srixons feel better. Hope Mizuno goes back to their older forging ways.
They are in the bag for 2019. Z785 5-PW, Modus 120s. Beautiful iron and great feel. Modus 120 was best shaft for me. The irons are just a fraction thicker topline than my mp-32. And a fraction thicker sole. Not much in it.
I probably would play Z585 but the Z785 look sexy. As an improving player, I would probably still want the forgiveness of the Z585 over the Z785, but maybe the 785s are worth a go.
when was the last time you cleaned the grooves of an iron! :-)
Awaiting the arrival of the new 785's with S300 Shafts. it's a little over 3 weeks now but demand maybe the cause of the delay ...... yes I cannot wait that's why I am watching you tube video reviews :-) but I have been awaiting MC's view also.
Mark, how do these irons compare to TM P790's? If you were to choose between the 2 sets, which would you choose and why?
Holidays in Japan, the golf stores are amazing
Have the 785's 4 - PW The U65 (85 is the new one) 2 iron... They are all fantastic... Best bats Ive had :)
Great review as always, seriously considering getting these or the Z565's . Nice looking clubs
Great review Mark. Love these on course reviews. May pick up a set of these. Think they are a one piece forged club , which I like.
Let me know what you end up getting
Thinking of purchasing a used set of these irons at PGA Tour Superstore. Hit them in the sim and they felt great compared to my Taylormade SpeedBlades. Always heard Srixon made great irons but was really impressed. These felt softer and flew further than my current set. Probably because of a stronger loft? Not sure if they match my specs however of 1/2" short and 2 degrees flat. How hard would it be to adjust these irons? Thanks for the review, Mark.
Lovely set of irons. A great review. If I was buying irons. I’d look at these very favourably.
There is a lot of very pretty player/GI irons: i500, MP18-MMC, JPX919, P760, P790, AP3. It cannot be bad when the Rogue (which is still a nice looking club) is one of least attractive of the main manufacturers. Cobra are the stand out which really need improve their looks (although the F8 hybrids and woods are very good looking).
So much better than a couple of years ago
Only reason I didn’t go for these was cos I’d need a combo set and I didn’t like the look of the 585. So I bought the jpx919 forged instead. Srixon make fantastic clubs though.....great review as always😀👍
I got fitted for a set of these. They are great.
I’ve been waiting for this review for awhile now. I like the medium top line and the overall look is awesome. My next set of clubs will be forged. Decide between Srixon z-785 and
Mizuno jpx 919 forged. You gave 919 forged a very good review also. Decision Decisions..., mmmm.
Thx Mark
Alan Parr the 919 don’t look great in person
no comparison - Srixon 785 all the way, and twice on Sunday. mizuno f@#$k up the 919F this year, such a shame (they feel like crap compared to the Srixon, personally I think the 919HM feel way softer than the 919F) - if you are looking in this category of irons, I would compare the 785 to the MP18 line. MP18SC - 6-PW + 919 HM in the 4 ,5 (or the fli hi) - that's some goodness!
Nice review Mark, thanks.
Reminds me if the Fly z plus review you did 3 years ago. In fact, I just bought some second hand after playing Rocketbalz for 6 years. Love the feel and the flight of the Fly z plus. Would you say these irons are much like the Fly z plus Mark ? I'm guessing slightly better 3 years down the line.
Interesting vid, cheers
Works for me but not sure where I can get fit for srixons?
Hi Tom, you can find your nearest Srixon Stockist here: www.srixon.co.uk/en_GB/stores
I game the 765s love them, hit the 785s love them more, hate it when that happens !!
Hey Mark. I'm going to buy some of these in the spring. Unfortunately there is no one who carries a fitting cart for Srixon in my area so I have a quick question. I'm a 6-8 handicap depending on how often Im playing. Decent ball striker. Just wondering if these irons get a little chunkier with more offset in the 4 and 5 iron or would you go to the bigger style 585 or whatever they are if I'm looking for a little bigger look with a little more offset. Thanks bruh !!
If you can find a Cleveland demo day they will have Srixon with thrm as well.
Great review. I'm glad you've brought back the comparison to similar irons at the end as well.
p.s. do these feel any better/different from the Z765 irons or are the changes only visual?
Where can I get fitted for these, I live in Bristol.

Question is ..why are Srixon irons so overlooked when they look bloody lovely ? 🤔😁👍🏌️♂️
Because people are drawn to the big name eg callaway titleist ping tm and thier marketing hype. I had ping s56 for years and finally made the change to these and absolutely love them.
Mark, idk if you can drop some knowledge on the shafts theyre offering. If I recall, they are offering from what Ive read are a lot of of good quality shafts...and grips as well... Of course testing them & having a fitter goes a long way... but I think many consumers might just purchase based on numbers/feel without having product knowledge... Of course its our responsibility to research but your reviews are part of my research :)
Eddie AKA ChatterBox the shaft options are crazy! I had them choice of a dozen or so.
A huge array of shaft and grip choices with no upcharge. Except graphite a small upcharge
Yeah thats what makes these clubs even a better deal. Sooo much to choose from, its like a candy store
Does anyone know if a z985 series is coming?
New bladed iron offering coming next spring...
Look a lot like my Mizzy MP-54s.
Absolutely in love with my 585/785 Combo set!!!
Lovely...simply lovely...
Good club review. Thank you
Thanks Mark 😀
classy looking clubs
Lovely Juvley... hit like, watch vid, get good content as expected! First glance these look a little like my mp63s! And they have that "sound" - hope to hit some of these, but they are a little harder to find! Cheers Bruh!!
Thanks for the great review Mark, and everyone else for their personal reviews. Can anyone tell me why its quite common to have 785's PW-7 but then 585's for long irons?
I've had TM R7's for 10 years and they've gotten me from 32hc to 7, currently off 10. Getting a much needed upgrade, going from 90g shafts to prob 105-120g too. cheers
A blended 785/585 set is common as this allows an individual to have the club designed for work-ability and control in short or scoring irons while having a more forgiving club in the long irons. Also, being forged clubs, the lofts can be manipulated in a fitting to achieve optimal yardage gapping between clubs throughout the set.
The aesthetics of the clubs compliment each other as well.
if titleist wasn't my brand of choice, Srixon would be the only thing is availability here in Holland
Does Yoda concur with your review ?
