By Michael Cooney THE Srixon ZX MK II irons are fantastic. What a beautifully constructed iron-head that really looks unreal.

One significant drawback with most distance-oriented irons has been that, when compared with traditional blade styles, their profile often tends to be larger and thicker. While not doubting the game-enhancing performance of such clubs, some potential customers are wary of their oversized, heavily-offset appearance.
