GETS Golf looks at two of the top game improvement irons for 2024, the Titleist T-350 and the Srixon ZX4 MK 11.
The Titleist T-350 stands out as one of the premier game improvement irons in 2024, boasting exceptional accuracy, reliable forgiveness, and commendable distance capabilities.
In a comparative evaluation with the Srixon ZX4 Mk II, the key factors under scrutiny are accuracy, forgiveness, and distance.
The Srixon model demonstrates remarkable accuracy, offers consistent forgiveness, impressive distance, and reliable distance control.
Titleist T-350
True Player's Construction
The T350 features a new multi-material, hollow-body construction inspired by the T200 distance irons used by professional golfers. This design enhances performance by providing maximum forgiveness while maintaining a pure player's feel.
Fast Across the Face
The T350 incorporates Max Impact Technology and a dual-taper forged face to deliver exceptional speed across the entire hitting surface. This technology ensures consistent carry distance and speed, even on off-center strikes, resulting in improved accuracy and performance.
Effortless Turf Interaction
Through collaboration with Tour Pros and Vokey Design experts, our engineers have enhanced the Variable Bounce Sole of the T350. By softening the trailing edge, the club moves smoothly through the turf, enhancing post-contact performance and providing a superior feel with every shot.
Better Tungsten for Better Results
Utilizing dense D18 tungsten and a precise 2000º aerospace brazing process, Titleist engineers have optimized the CG placement in the T350. This iron now features dual-tungsten weighting, similar to our Tour distance irons, resulting in a solid feel and maximum forgiveness for improved results on the course.
