The club also features optimized progressive sole weighting that adopts a shallow and low CG design that results in high trajectory and low spin. This provides a playable, strong trajectory that can resist wind while still maximizing carry from a variety of turf conditions.
Behind each TW757 hybrid is Honma’s Vertical Rib face design, which along with an advanced sole slot increases initial ball speed and improves weight distribution in a classically shaped, compact head design.
The TW 757 fairway woods feature a strong, compact look at address and many of the construction features found in the hybrid for faster initial ball speed, stability and control. Classic shaping blends a 455-steel cup-face with an ultralight carbon crown to deliver a true player’s 3-wood. Tour-proven compact profiles and optimized adjustable sole weighting with a shallow and low CG design results in high trajectory and low spin. All of these are features that make this a good replacement for a driver on many holes.
As with any club, the shaft is the engine and, in the fairways, and hybrids, Honma has developed its own proprietary shaft made specifically for these clubs. The exclusive VIZARD for 757 50 Shaft was holistically designed to synergize these woods from grip to tip. The strong mid-section in conjunction with a sub 5.0° torque value stabilizes club delivery and maximizes energy transfer at impact, while a softer tip provides for high launch and optimal spin. This versatile shaft has a smooth feel and is excellent for a wide variety of players looking for a premium ultra-lightweight shaft. As with all VIZARD shafts, this proprietary shaft is spine aligned at 6 o’clock for added stability.
These shafts have a soft but controlled feel that add to the distance and accuracy attainable with these clubs.
To complement the standard VIZARD for 757 50 Shaft, Honma produces several other high-end shafts through Sakata’s worldrenowned Custom Department. Produced in-house in Honma’s Sakata factory to the industry’s tightest tolerances, the VIZARD MA, MP, FZ and Platinum shafts hold their own on professional tours around the world.
The TW757 Hybrids come in 18, 21, 24 and 27-degree lofts, while the fairway woods come in 15, 18 and 21-degree lofts.

When it comes to jackets that fit the bill for both playing golf and traveling, it would be hard to find anything as versatile and accommodating as the SCOTTEVEST Tropiformer 3D--that really is the Swiss Army Knife of jackets.
Although CEO and founder Scott Jordan established SCOTTEVEST more than 20 years ago because he couldn’t find cloths with enough pockets, it is only recently that the Idaho-based company has reached out to the golf market with reformulated products.
Jordan, who has coined the company motto: “It’s not rocket science. It’s pocket science.” Has taken the art of designing super functional clothing and really made a science out of it.
Along with his wife Laura, who is the company president, they have built a reputation for producing quality products that cater to carrying your electronics with you with a personal touch--and even include such notables as Steve Wozniak—one of the co-founders of Apple—as a member of their Board of Advisors.
In addition to the 22 pockets in the Tropiformer 3D jacket—yes 22 pockets—the jacket easily transforms into a nice vest with the magnetic removable sleeves. This is an excellent feature for those rounds where the temperature rises, and you need to quickly shed sleeves. And when the temperature dips, you can easily reattach the sleeves to match the conditions.
The Tropiformer has tons of features designed for your life on the go. A a removable/stowable hood and the ability to pack into its own back pocket are just some of the very nice features that include: large inside pocket that easily stores a tablet; chest pocket with drop-in pocket; glasses pocket with chamois; key holder and bottle holder; two phone pockets; two handwarmer pockets; digital camera and Mymemory™ pocket and the personal area network that allows you to wire headphones and power cables through specially designed channels in the garment without getting tangled in loose wires. This is really the ticket for going through airport security—just take off the jacket with all your gear and put it in the tray!
The jacket is made of water-repellent Aquapel™ by Nanotex treated 100% Polyester shell with breathable mesh panels that repels liquid spills and is fluorocarbonfree and Pfoa-free. It is also machine washable.
In addition to the Tropiformer jacket, SCOTTEVEST has a large and versatile assortment of other designs with loads of innovative features and pockets, such as vests, jackets, hoodies, button downs, teeshirts, polos and pullovers, pants and shorts, PJS and underwear.
The company also has a well-designed lineup of fashions for women, including jackets, vests, hoodies, dresses, skirts, tops, pants skorts and more.
