Srixon staff players
and the new Z-UR golf balls have earned a total of six Top 10 finishes
already this year on the PGA Tour, including four Top 5 finishes. On
the European Tour, the Z-UR golf balls have already claimed two
victories-Tim Clark at the South African Airways Open and Miguel Angel
Jimenez at the Omega Hong Kong Open-this season.
Srixon's
revolutionary Z-UR is constructed with an incredibly soft,
shear-resistant, and membrane-thin urethane-elastomer cover measuring
an astounding 0.02-inch thin and features the largest and fastest
Energetic Gradient Growth core Srixon has ever developed. The Z-UR is a
ball with tremendous initial velocity, ideal ball flight and
aerodynamics, and pinpoint control and feel.
