Srixon ZXi RKT Max Targets Golfers Who Miss the Center

Srixon’s ZXi RKT Max is designed for golfers who want help when contact drifts toward the heel or toe. Golf Monthly’s on-course test found the head launched easily, produced strong distance, and stayed much steadier than a lower-MOI driver on mishits. Poor contact still cost speed and direction, but the losses were less severe.

The Max has the roundest shape in Srixon’s new driver family, with visible loft behind the ball and a large appearance that should appeal to players seeking reassurance at address. Its hosel can alter loft and face angle, while a fixed 14-gram rear weight supports a high-launching setup. Golfers wanting more flight-tuning options can look to the standard ZXi RKT model, which adds movable head weights.

Srixon says the 2026 range uses a redesigned face and internal construction to improve energy transfer and impact sound. The test found only modest progress in both areas, and the Max was not considered a major leap over the earlier ZXi Max. The reviewer also found the headcover less polished than the club itself. Still, the Max gives Srixon a credible forgiving option in a crowded driver market.
