Srixon unveils new Z-Star Series of golf balls

Published

on

Today, Srixon introduced its all-new Z-Star Series golf balls.

The latest line of Z-Star golf balls are engineered to pack an even greater punch, and are designed to provide longer distance, more optimized spin, and tour-level stopping power around the greens.

The latest Z-Star Series features a newly formulated, extra-thin, premium urethane cover made with biomass. This innovative cover is specifically designed to withstand all conditions faced on the course, in a bid to ensure each Z-Star Series model maintains its tour-caliber performance throughout rounds of play.

2025 Srixon Z-Star golf balls: Additional details

In addition to the new biomass cover, the Z-Star Series also features Spin Skin+ coating. This thin layer of specialized urethane increases the cover’s friction, designed to result in enhanced approach shots and greenside spin. Additionally, the use of a stronger urethane paint in this generation bids to help improve resistance to dirt and grime, providing players with superior spin control and extra versatility around the greens.

“Our approach to this generation of the Z-Star Series was to produce a more durable ball without compromising performance. This generation’s unique cover and stronger coating help improve the spin performance specific to each ball, while our team has improved distance and control to provide golfers purer performance from tee to green.” – Jeff Brunski, Vice President of Research and Development at Srixon

The newly formulated FastLayer DG Core 2.0, consisting of three unique formulas, lies at the core of the Z-Star Series. Starting soft at the center and gradually firming from the inside out, this core design seeks to ensure optimum spin and distance upon impact, while still delivering Srixon’s signature feel. 

FastLayer DG Core 2.0 also enables optimal core evolution for each model, providing even more distinction between the ball options. The Z-Star model, with reduced compression at the center of its already soft core, minimizes driver spin in design for increased distance, softer feel, and enhanced greenside spin. The Z-Star XV features added firmness partway through the core, and boosts ball speed for greater distance and improved iron spin.

Lastly, the Z-Star Diamond, with its slightly firmer core and reduced compression, is designed to minimize driver spin, resulting in exceptional distance off the tee while maintaining greenside spin.

Z-Star Divide

Also included in the Z-Star Series is Srixon’s Z-Star Divide and Z-Star XV Divide models. Offering unmatched visibility on the course, the distinctive two-tone design of these balls, known as 50/50 Visual Performance, allows golfers to see the game from a whole new perspective.

Despite their unique colorway design, the Divide golf balls incorporate the same tour-caliber feel, speed, and distance technology found in each Z-Star and Z-Star XV model.

In addition, the 338 Speed Dimple Pattern aims to provide less drag and more lift to boost overall distance and accuracy, even in the toughest wind conditions.

“For visual players who like to track their ball in the air and around the greens, the Divide is a game changer. The yellow/white contrast creates a spinning strobe effect, allowing golfers to easily gauge the rate of spin with their Wedges. When you add in the 360° seam line on the greens for better alignment and roll, these balls can enhance consistency in the areas of your game that matter most.” – Jeff Brunski, Vice President of Research and Development at Srixon

Slab city on the Korn Ferry Tour — Lead Tape Report

Published

on

This week, we have our Tour Photographer, Greg Moore, on the ground at the OccuNet Classic at Tascosa Golf Club in Amarillo, Texas, for the 14th event of the 2026 Korn Ferry Tour season. With that, we see some great things in the Lead Tape Report as we roll into Amarillo.

Joel Thelen

Monday Qualifier, Joel Thelen is in the field this week. He has played on the Korn Ferry Tour for a full season in 2023, and he is back in action this week. A couple of clubs caught my eye this week in his bag.

First off: His trusted Titleist 816 H2 hybrid. This club came out in October of 2015, and it still remains strong in the bag. Also, take a look at this Odyssey White Hot OG 7, putting a capital S in the 7S model. This custom neck has some impressive lean for an arm-lock-style putter. The bottom of the putter is covered in tape for optimal weighting.

Mitchell Meissner

Taking a look at Mitchell Meissner’s bag this week, we have some great lead tape coverage. Top to bottom working from fairway metals, irons, and wedges. We can see on the short irons and wedges that there is tape at the base of the grip, adding a little counterbalance. Along with that, some tape on the short irons and wedges as well. Moving to his putter, he rolls the Odyssey 7 Bird putter. Meissner putts left-handed and strikes the ball right-handed.
