Srixon WR driver review

Srixon WR driver
Price: £199.00
A review of the Srixon WR driver, an impressive club with a 460cc head, for under £200.
Design and Tech Benefits
The Srixon WR driver features a thick ribbing inside the back of the head which is situated slightly differently, depending on the loft. This helps to create the optimum centre of gravity for each club. Tungsten-nickel weights at the base of the toe and heel help to improve accuracy.
This driver should appeal to golfers who want workability from a 460cc head and like a classy-looking shape and finish. An impressive performer for under £200.

Golf Monthly Verdict
Like Srixon’s Z-RW driver, the Srixon WR driver has a compact head that anyone who doesn’t want too many distractions at address will appreciate. We were impressed by the impact sound, which is powerful without being too loud, as well as the high flight it produced. The design and the shape mean it is easy to hit a draw or fade when required.

Having tried this club, and being the proud owner of a Z-RW, i'm surprised you don't see more of them out on the course. The clubs are quality and are easily a match for some of the more prominently marketed big name brands. I wouldn't say that the WR offers any more performance over the older club i have, but for anyone looking for a driver that is easy to hit, forgiving and with a penetrating ball flight that the wind has little effect on, then take a look.

The Srixon WR driver is sold out now and can be ordered at very cheap prices via the internet (e.g. 99 EUR). I took the opportunity and found the club a bit disappointing. The sound is very loud if not anoying, even if you don't make a good hit. I experienced difficulties in achieving an acceptable length. It was difficult to achieve lengths of more than 170 meters. I tried a Taylor Made Burner for comparison and achieved much better results in length.
