New Srixon RKT Driver Review

I have 27 holes recorded with this driver right now and these are my initial thoughts.

Specs-

2027 Srixon RKT Driver
10.5 loft
Kaili Dark Waves Blue Shaft - Stiff flex


Looks -

IMO this is one fine looking club sitting behind a ball.

It has a Semi- Matte finish on top. Certainly not as Black Matte as other and it has a very understated "S" as a aim-point on the crown.

Face - Grade A

This can be very subjective for each golfer. This 10.5 loft driver shows more of the face than most. For me that inspires confidence that I don't have to help get the ball in the air. Compared to other drivers, the stated loft seems true and within the manufacturer tolerances. I'm sure if you go down in loft the face will move less visible .

The face Grid looks a lot like a Titleist to me. Very appealing. It is Square for sure. They really worked on the sound too. A lot more muted than previous models.

Performance - Grade A +

You can really tell that Srixon really invested the time and research into the sound and the face performance. When you hit it dead center, you can feel the face flex and power the ball. It is a very powerful feeling.

This driver just like my Cobra Optim driver that I have, it just wants to go straight. It is very forgiving for a standard model.

To say it's long, that is very subjective too and depends on each player. I can say for me, it's as long or longer for me compared to the Optim, Quantum or Ping.

Standard Shaft - B+

So far it have been a pretty decent performer. It seems to be a mid launch and I can load it fine. Will I stay with this shaft ? Time will tell, I do have a Red Ventus Velocore that I will try in it some day.

Headcover - C-

All Black with silver lettering and a couple of different fabrics. Very understated. It goes into the drawer in favor of my LSU headcover.

Overall -

It's been a long time that I have had a driver that I really love the looks of it at address. It really has a great shape and a big plus is it doesn't have the meld look of different materials like the Quantum Max and others.

I am very impressed with Srixon products and the direction the company is headed. I love my X5 irons and I really want to try the new Diamond ball when it comes out.

The new RKT 10K Max driver is getting great reviews as well. And I will be trying the 3 wood in the near future.

I was in a hurry with the Pics, Hope they look decent to you.
