New collection­s unveiled

-

HONMA Golf have launched their Beres Aizu and Black collection­s, the latest in the Beres line of visually attractive and expertly crafted game-enhancing golf equipment.

Promoting straighter, longer ball flight and increased ball speed than their earlier generation­s, these Beres clubs continue the proud heritage of past Honma lines, with two bold twists on clubhead aesthetics.

The Beres Aizu ushers in the next chapter in a storied history of fine craftsmans­hip, designed in collaborat­ion with Japanese Aizu artisans.

The line’s incomparab­le beauty houses great strength, innovation and performanc­e.

Dating back to 1590, Aizu paintings represent Honma’s Japanese heritage and tradition.

With Aizu’s signature red and ornate gold accents, Beres Aizu encapsulat­es Takumi’s expertise in one of the industry’s most technologi­cally advanced constructi­ons in a golf club collection.

The Aizu and Black clubhead designs feature identical technology. The Aizu line also follows the Beres 2-to-5 star grading, with the more advanced shaft technology as the grades progress.

Each driver features triple sole slots and an L-cup face for powerful initial ball speed. An optimal centre of gravity (CG) design allows for high trajectory, low spin, forgivenes­s and better distance.

The draw bias helps correct fade tendencies associated with modest swing speeds.

The triple slots bend at impact and rebound to increase ball speed, even on mishits. The L-cup face produces high repulsion across the face, maintainin­g an elevated CT value by not needing to weld the face.

An evolved radial Ti6-4 face expands the toe and heel’s repulsive area, boosting forgivenes­s on mis-hits.

An ultra-low specific gravity titanium alloy, Ti811, thin-walled crown with varying thinness optimises impact deflection.

The fairway woods and hybrids also feature the new triple sole slot, thin crown, flexible face and low centre of gravity weight distributi­on, designed independen­tly for each head.

Honma have ensured that every wood offers better distance through speed, launch and easyto-play draw-biased forgivenes­s.

Honma’s Takumi sought to create a high trajectory ball flight with the irons, along with forgivenes­s and stability on every hit – even mis-hits.

A wide 3D L-cup structure has a new ultra-thin face with vertical slots that improve the face insert strength – maximising speed and boosting forgivenes­s.
