Srixon's charts put both at the top of their lines for forgiveness, with a high launch, mid spin and a straight flight with a slight draw, for low to mid swing speeds. Both are 460cc heads in 9°, 10.5° and 12°, with one weight low at the back that sets the swing weight. The RKT MAX is the newer head: a body of a new titanium alloy, a carbon crown, and a face whose curve Srixon says holds back a hook from a strike high on the toe. Left-handed, it comes in 10.5° only.
