Letters from Santa GIVEAWAY 2 (PGAPappas 12 Days of Christmas Golf Giveaway): Srixon ZX5 or ZX7 Driver

When Santa told me he was interested in the new Srixon ZX drivers it honestly didn't surprise me.  The ZX7 I reviewed for you guys this year has been the best Srixon driver I've ever played.

What did surprise me however was Santa's decision between the ZX5 and ZX7.  I'll let him explain in his own words.  But suffice to say in my Letters from Santa GIVEAWAY 2 in my PGAPappas 12 Days of Christmas Golf Giveaway, you'll be able to choose a brand new ZX5 or ZX7 driver, LH or RH, whatever flex you want.

The ZX7 driver has been one of the longer drivers I've hit over the past year, and has a level of forgiveness significantly better than the previous gen Z785.  In fact, I actually hit ZX7 better than ZX5.  ZX7 still distinguishes center from mishits, but but also narrows the gap between them in distance and dispersion.

If you have any questions about the ZX5 or ZX7 beyond what you've read in my reviews or we've talked about on social just hit me up, and will be sure to work with you to make sure your new ZX driver is perfect.

Just like with the daily gifts in my PGAPappas 12 Days of Christmas Golf Giveaway, you'll have three unique ways to win the Letters from Santa gifts.  On twitter just retweet my giveaway announcement and follow all; on Instagram repost, mention in your story, or like, and follow all; and here on my blog leave a comment in the section below in the daily review/giveaway/Letters from Santa articles.

These gifts are great prizes of course, but also some of the best equipment and gear in their class that I played and reviewed this season.  And I hope these mini reviews and recaps give you an idea of why I rate them so highly.

Merry Christmas everyone, and here's Santa's latest letter to me again below. 

Good morning Pete,

Gonna have to make this quick.  The elves and reindeer are bickering again about who's more important to my operations.  Happens ever year, you know... tastes great, less filling kinda thing.  Usually harmless.  Few days ago during one of their usually playful snowball fights however, one of the more mischievous elves went full shock-and-awe Buddy and tagged Prancer something fierce.  Elf claimed he was just agility training with Prancer.  Then later that evening Prancer, Dancer, and Vixen broke curfew and went rogue.  They grabbed the elf from his sleep and stuffed him in a locker.  Things escalated quickly, so I have to keep one eye on em all til this dies down.

Anyway, I've seen you playing the Srixon ZX7 driver since early this year and read your reviews so of course I picked one up for myself.  To borrow one of your lines here... Jingle BAM baby ZX7 is a bomber!  And just between you and I?  Mrs. Claus digs the long ball too.

Here's my conundrum though.  I saw Brooks Koepka signed with Srixon and is playing with a ZX5 driver.  I know you prefer the ZX7 and no offense Pedro, but he's Brooks freaking Koepka.  Did you hear him at his last press conference when one of your media asked him if he can return to peak Brooks?  He was all deadpan like, "you ain't seen peak Brooks yet."  I mean DAAAAAAYUM right?  Who says that???  Besides Tiger I mean... and well, Brooks.  So I'm adding a ZX5 to the bag and going with a two driver setup in the new year.  Good for Brooks, good for Santa.  #GFBGFS

I know you're letting everyone pick RH or LH for all the clubs you're giving away in your 12 Days of Christmas Golf Giveaway this year.  I'm not spilling the beans on that one am I?  Anyway, I dig it.  And was thinking, how about for your Srixon driver giveaway you also let everyone choose between the ZX5 and ZX7?  Trust me it's the way to go.

Write again tomorrow,

Santa

  5. Dear Santa Pete,

    I’m sure if you look you’ll find me on your Nice List this year. I’d love to wake up to the RH ZX7 this year. Thanks!

  6. Please tell Santa that my King Cobra hasn't really been that good to me, or, maybe, I haven't been that good to it. For 10+ years, it has stayed in my bag more than been used. Never seemed like a good fit. I'd love a new one that doesn't have a bad opinion of me. 😆😆 #ReleaseTheKringle #JingleBAM

  24. Never played anything Srixon except for the balls. I like the ZX7 for sure for the forgiveness & a more penetrating flight, since I hit a high ball as it is. #ReleaseTheKringle Merry X-Mas Pete!
