+TourSpecGolfer Posted April 15, 2014 Report Share Posted April 15, 2014 I wanted to highlight the players clubs that Honma has to offer. Although I have not hit it yet, not sure I will as it could be more than I can handle which is something I never expected to say about anything Honma, the TW717 is for the athlete & better player. Compared to say the Crazy 435 it seems noticeably smaller when looking down at it based on design not being 5cc's less. Basically it's a club designed for those who want to maneuver the ball and are looking for a strong mid trajectory. Shaft options, of course we can have any shaft installed but what Honma offers is worth considering. For the average player the new ARMRQ 8 Mid Kick 66 grams in stiff 8 weave Japanese carbon made in house. If you need more than that try the Vizard TA65 or TA75 which is also mid kick just a bit heavier and more stout. It's butt stiff to give the impression that the tip is softer than actual. And finally the Vizard TZ65 & TZ75 these are the stronger players high kick 67g - 75g shafts. The TZ is butt soft and tip stiff designed to prevent the left side. Here's the skinny on the TW717 430: - Matte Black Finish - Designed for workability - High back side to promote a level impact plane - Front of crown is thicker than back for a stronger more piercing trajectory - Slightly oval face helping the club stay open at impact - variable face thickness to increase rebound - 5 piece structure - crown = 3AL 2.5V Ti - sole = G4 Ti - hosel = pure Ti - weight = 13g neutrally positioned tungsten - face = 6A-4V Ti Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian-500 Posted April 15, 2014 Report Share Posted April 15, 2014 Great looking driver. I've hit all 3 in the TW range and my fav was the 455. Lovely feel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vma03 Posted April 16, 2014 Report Share Posted April 16, 2014 Wow that's pretty cool. I can't wait to see if they'll have this at an upcoming Demo Day. Honma has really suprised me. At the last year's Demo Day, I tried the new blades and not only could I hit the ball solid, I was able to move the ball left to right and right to left. I can't even do that with my regular cavity back irons. Might have to give Honma another look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
