Overview
The 2025 Srixon Z-STAR Diamond is a premium, tour-level golf ball designed to offer a balanced blend of distance, spin, and feel. Positioned between the softer Z-STAR and the firmer Z-STAR XV, it caters to skilled players who want both control and power, particularly in the mid-to-short game.
Design & Technology
Core
-
Built with a FastLayer DG Core that is soft in the center and gradually becomes firmer toward the edges.
-
This design provides a soft feel on shorter shots and firm energy transfer on powerful strikes, especially with the driver.
Cover
-
Features a thin urethane cover enhanced with a friction-boosting coating called Spin Skin+.
-
Designed to increase interaction with club grooves for more spin and control, especially on approach shots and around the green.
Dimples
-
Uses a 338 Speed Dimple pattern to optimize aerodynamics.
-
Helps reduce drag and maintain lift, resulting in a stable flight even in windy conditions.
Sustainability
-
The urethane cover incorporates plant-based materials to reduce environmental impact during manufacturing.
Performance
Driver Performance
-
Delivers high spin relative to most tour balls, which helps shape shots but may reduce roll-out.
-
Produces a penetrating, mid-to-high trajectory.
-
Performs best at moderate to high swing speeds, where its firmer structure enhances distance.
Irons & Wedges
-
Known for excellent spin and control with irons and wedges.
-
Offers a strong stopping ability on greens, making it ideal for players who rely on precise approach shots.
-
Enhances long iron spin, which is beneficial for aggressive, high-launching approaches.
Short Game
-
Around the green, the ball provides excellent feedback and control.
-
Performs well on chips, pitches, and bunker shots, allowing for confident play in tight scoring situations.
In Wind & Weather
-
Aerodynamic design ensures consistent ball flight in crosswinds or gusty conditions.
-
Materials are engineered for performance stability across different temperatures and environments.
Who It’s For
This ball suits golfers who:
-
Have a driver swing speed of 90+ mph.
-
Want a ball that offers high spin and control without sacrificing too much distance.
-
Prefer a medium-to-soft feel and responsive touch on finesse shots.
-
Play in conditions where wind resistance and consistent flight matter.
Trade-Offs
-
Higher spin off the tee may reduce total rollout for players who prefer a lower-spinning driver ball.
-
Players with slower swing speeds may not compress the ball fully, leading to reduced distance.
-
Like most urethane balls, it may scuff more easily and comes at a premium price point.
Summary
The 2025 Srixon Z-STAR Diamond is a versatile, high-performance golf ball aimed at players who demand both precision and power. It excels in spin control, especially with irons and wedges, while maintaining strong tee-to-green performance. Ideal for serious golfers seeking a ball that bridges the gap between distance and feel.
