Was looking at some of these in my local golf shop this morning and didn't really know anything about them. The store owner (PGA Pro) and his assistant (also PGA Pro) both play Srixon clubs so I'm a little hesitant to listen to them because of bias, etc.

So I was curious as to whether or not anyone else has played with these before or has any thoughts? Thanks!

well... I have never heard anything about them really

one fair warning, pro shops attendents and pro's make healthy stiffs (commissions) off of clubs like srixon, because they are a company trying to get a foothole in the industry, companies like Titleist, Taylormade and Callaway give like 2.50 a club whereas someone like Nickent and Srixon and Cleveland (well cleveland 2 years ago) are giving almost 20 a club

most people do not know that commissions comes from manufacturers and not the store as an incentive to sell more... so this may not apply in your situation as these guys may be you friends but just a heads up

... I think your getting a little ahead of yourself here .... The word is "spiffs", not stiffs ...... any spiffs, commissions, bonus in volume purchases go the house, not the staff .... the store manager decides on where and when that money goes .. some stores do, some don't depending on the area of the country .... That said .. if a particular golfer likes the feel and play of that club, then who cares if the golf shop makes an extra $10 or $15 .....
Whats in the bag.?

Driver: Tour Edge 10* Jmax 460 Carbon with the Fuji Vista Pro 50 shaft/and, the Burrows 10.5* MAC 421cc with the Grafalloy Pro Launch 55 shaft.

I'm well aware of that... that's why I was a little hesitant to listen to them and take their word for it.

most people do not know that commissions comes from manufacturers and not the store as an incentive to sell more...

I work strictly on commission so I'm also well aware of how that system works. But as long as it's not costing me anything extra to buy the club and I like it, then what do I care?

I hear you on that one... I am always a little weary of companies who sort of join the bandwagon a little later than everyone else...

but its all feel... and personal taste, I am looking forward to the release of the 585H but my 503 is relatively new and I don't know if I want to replace it... on another not, I am thinking of replacing my 904 with a 906 (for some reason, I don't know...) either to replace my 15 degree 904 or add a 5 wood in the 906... right now I'm carrying a 22 degree hybrid and only have room for one club in the bag...

19 degree 585H or a 17 degree 906F2 ... what to do... what to do

      Day 575 - 2026-04-29 Well, shit. (Not golf related.) Did some "expert witness" stuff today, and talked with some developers about a UI/UX thing for two hours. At various times throughout the day I grabbed the putter in my office and did some downswing work.

      the rules have changed, but this would fall under 11.2 in the current rules.  General Penalty to any player who deliberately deflects a ball in motion, and you must replay the putt.

      Day 250 4-29 Getting chest through with speed on downswing and wrist arch. Also worked on some moving the pelvis slightly away in the backswing. Feel like im going too fast and long, looks like it on the recordings too.

      Interesting that it's no penalty, but then again, I can't imagine someone would purposefully put their foot out there in this situation or one like it.  And then there was the time someone purposefully deflected his own ball during a major, but that's very different too. The only time I can recall a ball I hit hitting another player or their equipment was ages ago -- over a decade and a half ago.  I had a 3' putt for an 89 and someone (a random pairing, not someone I knew) decided it was a good time for goaltending practice.  That wouldn't fall under this rule, though (and it wasn't in a tournament anyway). Thanks for continuing to share these, Dave!  I always find these interesting.

      Day 51 (29 Apr 26) - Worked with a few of the golf team kids plus my grandson (he’s too young for the team as it’s middle-high school age and he’ll be 10 Sat).  He put on a small hitting clinic (hitting off the same tees as the rest of the boys) - one of the older kids called him a “coach”.  Worked in a few shots for myself - had the light bag: driver, 7w, 4 - 6 - 8 - Pw - Sw (DCI 962’s except the Sw a 981) and Zebra putter….got in some great tee shots, a couple of recovery and an awesome up and down for bogie: 55 yds out, hitting 4th shot due to 2nd getting tangled in limbs - see the window I need to hit for a tight spinner with the Sw - nail it to a postage letter distance from the cup for a tap in bogie….my kind of practice.
