Lofts match on every club the two sets share, so the markers sit on top of each other.

What the differences mean

Every club the two sets share has exactly the same loft, starting with a 28.5° 7-iron. On paper there is no distance or trajectory difference: with the same swing, a 7-iron from either set should launch and carry about the same. The real differences are in how the heads are built, how they look at address and how they feel at impact, none of which a spec table can show. Lie angles and lengths match as well, so any fitting adjustment made to one set would carry straight over to the other.

The sets are built differently: the ZX4 runs 4-iron to AW (8 clubs), the ZX4 Mk II 4-iron to SW (9 clubs).

Both are game improvement irons, built for roughly 10 to 25 handicaps. Perimeter-weighted cavity backs with wider soles, more offset and stronger lofts, aimed at mid handicaps. Because they target the same golfer, the decision comes down to the specific loft, feel and shaping differences rather than who the sets are made for.

Both heads are listed as cast hollow-body multi-material. Both use hollow-body heads, so both trade a little feel for face flex and launch help.

The ZX4 Mk II arrived 2 years after the ZX4, a typical one-generation refresh. Changes over that span are usually incremental: refined face thickness, revised weighting, updated looks and small loft tweaks rather than a new concept.

Which should you choose?

The ZX4 and ZX4 Mk II share the same lofts on every club on file, so the difference is in head construction, feel and forgiveness rather than trajectory.

Frequently asked questions

Is the Srixon ZX4 stronger lofted than the ZX4 Mk II?

No. Both have a 28.5° 7-iron and the same loft on every club they share, so neither is stronger lofted. The difference is in construction and feel.

What is the loft difference between the Srixon ZX4 and ZX4 Mk II?

There is none. Every club both sets include has the same loft, including the 28.5° 7-iron.

Are the Srixon ZX4 and ZX4 Mk II aimed at the same golfer?

Yes. Both are game improvement irons, built for roughly 10 to 25 handicaps. Choose on feel, looks and gapping, ideally after hitting both.

Do the Srixon ZX4 and ZX4 Mk II have the same lie and length?

At the 7-iron, yes: both are 62° lie and 37 inches long.
