First Look – Srixon Z Prototype Tour 19 Driver

3_MAY_mono01

Given Srixon's surprisingly strong (like REALLY strong) showing in our recent Most Wanted Driver test, it's only natural that we'd pay particular attention when something new from the company pops-up. Case in point, the recently USGA approved Z Prototype Tour 19 Driver.

Whether the new model will remain tour-only, or will eventually make it's way to retail is unknown.

What we can say is that the new driver has a decidedly minimalist design. The Z Prototype Tour 19 offers no moving parts whatsoever. The hosel is glued, and aside from the requisite Z,  the sole is as smooth as a baby's backside.

Even the USGA's list of identifying characteristics is sparse:

SOLE: Z
TOE: SRIXON (with S underlined)
HEEL: SRIXON (with S underlined), (loft)

While we can't promise this one will ever make it to retail, we expect it will appeal to the purists among you who don't want/need adjustability, and who appreciate simple, clean lines.

Stay tuned for more details.
