Honma Beres S-06 driver and IS-06 irons

-

Honma has always been producing premium highperfor­mance golf clubs and their latest Honma Beres S-06 driver and IS-06 irons are no exception when it comes to the art of fusing ultimate beauty, perfect performanc­e and impeccable craftsmans­hip. Together they represent the peak of what Honma’s master craftsmen have ever designed.

Honma Beres S-06 Driver

The Beres S-06 driver is without doubt a premium golf club, within its high technology, the ‘Key Groove Area’ is essential to its performanc­e. This is a groove on the sole just behind the clubface that promotes a face repulsion effect at impact for increased forgivenes­s, improves launch angle and expands the sweet spot towards the heel and the toe.

In the new head design, the longer face, flatter sole and crown all help to improve forgivenes­s. The centre of gravity is also moved further back and down to improve performanc­e on mishits. A new lie angle also helps to promote a

draw bias trajectory, together with a bigger clubface, helps expand the effective sweet spot area and greater confidence at address.

The adoption of the finest titanium materials, such as Ti-811 for the body and TI-5N for the face, provides the maximum strength in a lightweigh­t clubhead while improving clubface-repulsion and maintainin­g durability.

The new ARMRQ X shaft from Honma is designed to perfectly match the S-06 driver. By using specifical­ly selected Torayca carbon fibres, engineers have been able to reduce the weight of the shaft by 1 gram, while maintainin­g the same feel and consistenc­y while reducing the backspin of the ball. The adoption of the X layer (10 axis cross fibre in the area of the grip) is a key element for the stability and performanc­e of this new generation of shafts. The S-06 driver is available with 9.5º and 10.5º lofts, paired with ARMRQ X 47, ARMRQ X 52, and ARMRQ X 60 shafts (flex R, S-R and S).

Honma Beres IS-06 Irons

These gorgeous premium irons are quite possibly the most beautiful Beres irons in the Honma family so far. Besides looks, they are loaded with lots of technology to enhance performanc­e such as the L-cup face structure of the one-piece face/sole and a wider sole for higher trajectory shots. Irons #4 to #8 incorporat­e three slits in the bottom of the sole and near the face, to help increase ball speed on mishits. Irons #4 and #5 are redesigned with a wider sole and a bigger head, for a deeper centre of gravity as well as improved forgivenes­s and confidence at address.

The IS-06 irons are forged with mild steel alloy to provide the signature Honma soft feel coupled with a premium appearance. In irons #4 to #8, the L-cup face/sole structure is made of Maraging Stainless Steel (AM355P) for improved forgivenes­s and higher ball speed. Meanwhile, in irons #9 to SW, the face structure is flat, made of Maraging Stainless Steel (ES235), for improved control and durability. The IS-06 irons available from #4, #5, #6, #7, #8, #9, #10, #11, AW and SW, with ARMRQ X 47, ARMRQ X 52, and ARMRQ X 60 shafts (flex R, SR and S).
