Which to choose

The biggest difference between these forged Srixon players' irons is how they look and how they move through turf. Testers praise the ZX7 Mk II for its thin topline and its Tour V.T. sole, which slides through varied lies without digging. The ZXi7 gets criticised for a square, slightly thick topline, especially in the long irons, and reviews of its turf interaction are mixed.

Feel goes the other way. Feel is what testers praise most on the ZXi7: soft, solid and responsive, with a good sound. Most testers also liked the ZX7 Mk II's feel, but one found it clicky and thin. On paper the two are almost identical: both 7-irons have 32° loft, 62° lie and 2.8 mm offset. The ZXi7 has 20° of bounce against 19° and is slightly longer (37.25 vs 37.0 inches). Reviews of forgiveness are split for both models.

Choose the SRIXON ZX7 Mk II Irons if…

you want the cleanest look at address, with a thin topline, and a sole that testers agree glides smoothly through turf, plus tightly grouped carry distances.

Choose the SRIXON ZXi7 Irons if…

feel and sound at impact matter most to you, and you don't mind a squarer, slightly thicker topline in exchange for the soft, responsive strike testers rate so highly.

Common questions

Which is more forgiving?
Neither stands out. Testers are split on both: some found mishits still carried well, while others saw clear losses on heel or toe strikes.
Which feels better?
The ZXi7 gets more consistent praise for its soft, solid, responsive feel and good sound. Most testers liked the ZX7 Mk II's feel too, but one called it clicky and thin.
Is it worth upgrading from the ZX7 Mk II to the ZXi7?
The specs are almost the same, including 32° loft and 2.8 mm offset in the 7-iron. Upgrading makes sense mainly if you want the ZXi7's better-rated feel. If you prefer a thin topline and turf interaction testers agree on, you may be happier staying with the ZX7 Mk II.

Side by Side, Aspect by Aspect

Feel and Sound: The ZXi7 Wins More Praise

Reviews of the ZX7 Mk II's feel are split. Several reviewers described centre strikes as soft, pure or solid, and one testing video said it feels like a different sport out of the middle. One reviewer, however, found it thin and harsh on mishits, with a clicky sound. Another felt some vibration on slightly off-centre hits. Elsewhere its sound was called crisp and pleasant. Every review praised the ZXi7's feel, using words like soft, responsive and solid. One reviewer said the feel drops off on heel and toe strikes, and another found the sound less impressive off centre. Both models get good marks for feel, but the praise for the ZXi7 is more consistent.

Looks at Address: The ZX7 Mk II Is Slimmer

Reviewers praised the ZX7 Mk II for a compact head, a thin or narrow topline and modest offset. One testing video said the offset visually disappears. Its black-and-grey finish was also welcomed, and one reviewer said it looks less intimidating than many players' irons. The ZXi7 was also called compact, with minimal offset and a clean cavity. However, several reviewers found its topline square, chunky or a bit thick, and one said this was most noticeable in the long irons. One reviewer did describe it as thin. On paper both 7-irons have the same 2.8 mm (0.11 in) offset, so the difference reviewers noticed comes mainly from the topline's shape and thickness.

Forgiveness: Opinions Split on Both Models

The ZX7 Mk II divided testers. One reviewer rated it good but not exceptional for a players' iron. Another saw limited forgiveness, and one testing video found toe strikes lost distance and direction. On the other side, one reviewer called it among the least punishing players' irons tested. Two testing videos showed little change in results on mishits, and one of them compared its forgiveness to a players-distance iron. The ZXi7 was also split. One reviewer called it very forgiving, and one testing video said it holds ball speed on heel hits. Two other reviewers found off-centre strikes clearly penalised. Neither model wins this one outright, so it's worth testing your own miss pattern on both.

Launch and Spin: Both Fly High, Spin Steadily

Both 7-irons have a 32° loft. Reviewers described the ZX7 Mk II as launching high, with one testing video calling the flight controlled rather than too high for windy days. Another video found it flew slightly lower than the ZX5 Mk II and spun a little lower than expected on some strikes. Otherwise its spin was described as mid-range and very consistent. For the ZXi7, two reviewers reported good or higher-than-expected launch, and one noted the long irons don't fly low. Its spin was called stable across the set, although one testing video saw slightly lower launch and spin than a rival model, meaning less stopping power. Both are rated for high, consistent flight, and each drew one low-spin remark.
