Which would you choose based upon the following:

Avg 7 distance 165 and 7 hcp

Z5s will have Nippon 105 stiff shafts

921s with have Project X LZ stiff


In the summer here in Houston the fairways get firm and lies get tight, so thinking about turf interaction along with some forgivness.


Any recommendations between the two ?

I have Srixon 565s with Project X shafts. On a hard pan lie, they can sometimes give you more feed back than youll want.

Both clubs are great with great shafts. You really cant make a bad choice here.

Why don’t you just go hit both with both shafts in each club and see which one you like the best?

I have, struggling with a decision.

Plus I am the one guy that launch monitors like Golf Galaxy has don't work on me.

Every time I hit in those bays it read that I am blocking everything right, but the reality is that yes my ball starts right but draws back 10 yards easily with every club.

All personal preference but I'd go Mizuno myself.

That may have made my decision.

I wouldn’t go Mizuno until you get to 921 Forged.

Not the same clubs but I went from 900 HM with recoil shafts to Srixon 585 with modus and picked up a club of distance. My old miss was a chunk, and I’ve yet to chunk one with the v-sole. Your results may vary.

Srixon.

They’re forged. Nicer club.

I think the zx5 would be more comparable to the 921 forged and the zx4 more comparable to the 921hm pro.

I play a 585/785 mixed set. I got better dispersion and consistency from srixon than the mizunos. And they look better at address to me. Srixon does a hell of a job hiding top line thickness.

Eta: Srixon offers 10 different shaft upgrades at no charge.
