Category: Better-Player Drivers

WE TESTED: 9.5 adjusts 8.5 to 10.5, 10.5 adjusts 9.5 to 11.5 with Mitsubishi Rayon Kuro Kage Black HBP 60 graphite shaft

KEY TECHNOLOGIES: The cup-face design creates a larger sweet spot on off-center hits.

DISTANCE: Average to above average, definitely not short; good overall distance; catch one on the screws and it flies down the fairway with most other drivers tested.

ACCURACY/FORGIVENESS: Fairly easy to hit straight heel/toe strikes don t lose much; this reliable gamer finds the short grass a good percentage of the time; covers up directional misses nicely.

FEEL: A little lighter than some other models but pretty pleasing at impact; a very good, stable sensation all the way through the swing; satisfying all around, even on misses.

PLAYABILITY: Mid-trajectory flight works well for most players; surprisingly simple to turn over for extra distance; not hard to hit the shots you want.

LOOK: Beautiful black paint job and classic shape a hit with most testers; sets up great, like an old-school driver; expensive and tasteful appearance.

Not as forgiving as some of the higher-rated models; provides solid distance but nothing to rave about; hard to shape left to right for some of the guys.

BOTTOM LINE: An impressive-looking head that packs a pretty good punch when struck solidly.

HOT STIX S TAKE: Best for players who want to manipulate their ball flight with a relatively low-launch, low-spin, 430 cc clubhead. Face angle adjusts 2 /-2. Launch - Low; Spin - Low

ClubTester Peter Kraus talks about one of his favorite drivers at ClubTest 2015, the Srixon Z 545.

Category: Max Game-Improvement Drivers

WE TESTED: 9.5 adjusts 8.5 to 10.5 and 10.5 adjusts 9.5 to 11.5 with Mitsubishi Rayon Kuro Kage Black HBP 60 graphite shaft

KEY TECHNOLOGIES: Changing the sole weight alters the CG, launch angle and spin on the Z 545.

DISTANCE: A top-tier performer in this category; produces long line drives that you have to love; absolutely bruising power for several testers, but not at the expense of accuracy.

ACCURACY/FORGIVENESS: There s enough sidespin reduction to stymie severe misses; plenty of roll on mishits helps when testers fail to find the wide sweet spot.

FEEL: Rewards well-struck shots a crisp popping sound off the face combines with a comfortable feel; subtle vibration on mis-hits provides just the right amount of feedback.

PLAYABILITY: A penetrating, medium-height flight; the club reacts to swing commands, so stronger players have the confidence to shape the ball consistently.

LOOK: Receives top marks; a no-nonsense, traditional black head that sets up squarely at address; the classic pear shape is a winner.

Some testers don t get enough mileage on misses; it s probably best in the hands of a player closer to the Game-Improvement category.

BOTTOM LINE: One of the top drivers in its class. A strong all-around club, the Z 545 benefits most players but will be especially effective in the hands of someone who wants to do more than just aim and shoot.

HOT STIX S TAKE: Ideal for players who need help on mis-hits and who like a classic look. It can be adjusted for face angle 2 /-2 and lie angle standard, 1, 2. Launch - High; Spin - Mid
