Choose the ZX7 Mk II if you strike it well and want the compact head.
Choose the ZX5 Mk II if you want a little more help on a mishit and stronger lofts, or Srixon's own combination of ZX5 long irons and ZX7 short irons for some of each.
The ZX5 Mk II is the more forgiving of the two: Srixon rated its forgiveness mid to high against low to mid for the ZX7 Mk II, and built it as a forged cavity back with distance technology, where the ZX7 is a single-piece players iron. The ZX5 has the wider sole, a little more offset (3.2 mm at the 7-iron against 2.8 mm) and a slightly longer blade. Its lofts are a degree stronger from the 5- to the 8-iron (a 31° 7-iron against 32°) and two degrees in the 9-iron and PW; the 4-irons match at 22°, and every lie and length is the same. Both were made in either hand, the ZX5 in senior, regular and stiff on its stock shafts and the ZX7 in stiff, or extra stiff to order. Srixon no longer sells either, so both are bought used. We score the ZX5 2 of 5 and the ZX7 1.
