Srixon has announced the sixth generation ZSTAR Series golf ball – the Z-STAR XV and ZSTAR – which officially launches in South Africa at the end of January 2019.
The Z-STAR XV and ZSTAR are available in Pure White and Tour Yellow.
‘Distance is one of the major strengths of my game, and I trust the performance of the Z-STAR XV like nothing else on Tour,’ said professional Cameron Champ, who currently leads the Tour in driving distance.
‘The exceptional ball speed and distance that I’m able to generate with the Z-STAR Series gives me the unique opportunity to compete at an elite level week-in and week-out.’
The sixth generation Z-STAR Series features the all-new FastLayer Core, a revolutionary way to make a golf ball core. It starts soft in the center and gradually becomes firmer around its edge.
This greatly enhances ball speed for maximum distance performance, while maintaining exceptional feel at impact.
‘The new Z-STAR XV is hotter off the driver,’ said four-time Tour winner Keegan Bradley. ‘It’s definitely longer with my irons as well. So, it’s a ball that’s going to help you throughout the entire bag.’
Similarly, the new Z-STAR golf ball features Spin Skin with SeRM, which increases greenside spin and short game control, while maintaining that soft feel. In addition, the 2019 Z-STAR employs a three-piece construction and slightly increased compression with a harder mantle layer for more ball speed, reduced spin and more distance.
Key Technologies:
• New FastLayer Core: The FastLayer Core starts soft in the center and gradually becomes firm around its edge, giving high-speed players exceptional feel and enhanced ball speed for maximum distance.
• 4TH Generation Spin Skin with SeRM: A new coating with flexible molecular bonds digs deep into wedge and iron grooves, maximizing spin for more control and more stopping power.
• 338 Speed Dimple Pattern: The 338 Speed Dimple Pattern offers less drag and more lift to boost overall distance, while flying straight, even in the toughest wind conditions.
