The New Srixon Z-STAR now in its eighth generation is designed for the golfer who insists on the highest possible performance available. The golf ball is the only piece of equipment that is used on every shot, so make sure it's good quality and designed to fit your needs. This ball provides tour-level stopping power around the greens with more bite and more spin than ever before. Srixon claim this new eighth-generation ball will give unmatched performance and feel.
The new Z-STAR creates increased ball speeds and outstanding greenside spin rates. The ball is a three-piece construction with new FastLayer DG Core Technology, this ensures lower compression and creates a softer feel with any club in the bag. This new FastLayer DG Core starts soft at the centre and gradually getter firmer from the inside out to give a satisfying feel on every shot.
The 338 dimple pattern improves aerodynamics and benefits flight, control and distance gains. After launch the new dimples generate lift, driving the ball upward and maximising glide distance during descent. Considerable research and development have gone into the new Srixon Z-STAR to improve shots from all types of lies, especially the rough where significant gains have been achieved. The outer cover material is not only durable, but it also creates a more consistent outer layer. A new and extremely thin urethane cover features Spin Skin with SeRM (Slide Ring Material) a durable coating with flexible molecular bonds, it digs deep into the wedge and Iron grooves to increase friction on chips and pitches around the scoring zones.
The Srixon Z-STAR creates low spin off the driver's face and a mid-piercing flight characteristic that slices through crosswinds/headwinds and produces longer carries and more roll-out. Many PGA Tour golfers play and love this ball, including the 2019 Open winner Shane Lowry, Jason Day, Matt Kuchar and Masters winner Hideki Matsuyama to name just a few. If a Tour Pro can make significant gains, think of the possibilities for yourself.

Ball flight will be Mid trajectory compared to the mid-high flight of the Z-star XV. Both versions provide low driver spin. Choose the ball that suits your game best.
