They do it the clever way, "Made in Japan Sakata" is on Vizzard and Armrq shafts but not on the head of irons, woods or drivers..... So it's a bit confusing for the buyer! Do you know when they started to make the production in China, what year? On a side note, and what I have said about the "Swiss made" for the watches: off course brands like Rolex, Patek, Vacheron, etc.... are still made 100% in Switzerland. But brands like Omega, Longines, Tag-Heuer, Tissot, etc... have many parts bought or assembled in China.

There is an interesting article on mygolfspy.com about Honma and where they are made. I used to have 2 sets of Honmas, too easy to hit! I changed for Miura PP9003, yes I know my ego maybe..... But I didn't like the look of the Honmas: too much colors, too much gold, etc.., but quality is top, nothing to say about it. Having said that, 2 of the best players in my club (almost scratch handicapper) have moved from blades to Beres models, so Honma is not only for old, and or, rich people, but for players as weel! Yes, it's a bit disappointing to learn that some parts are made in China, but after all the company belongs to Chinese! It's the same thing with watches, most of them have Swiss made on the dial, when most of the components are coming from China!

Thanks Chris. AA

Does anybody have infos regarding this shaft? Is it for fast or slow swing speed? How does it compare to stock Romaro shaft? Any infos will be welcome. Thanks in advance. AA

Hi, I do have a Romaro Ray Alpha Gold in 10.5 It's shafted with a Mitsubishi Rayon Bassara GG. Would you be interested in the combo, or head only? Best, AA

Hello Bluejays, You've got mail, best, AA

Hi Chris, Any idea how these compares to PP9003 or CB57? Best, AA

You've got mail....

Game improvement serie but without a gapwedge? Strange.... Trying to compete with XXIO and Honma?

The Armrq8 is available in different weight and flexes, which one did you try?

I think your TW717 is also available with the Armrq shaft, which is a much better (and more expensive) shaft than the Vizard. Here in Europe, all Honmas are sold with the Armrq and not the Vizard.

All right.... So Romaro will release later a SpeedTune Hi-Cor? LOL Any info on the Acro fiber shaft?

So, this SpeedTune would be "in between" the 460HX Black and Gold. I am talking about performance. Thanks for the update.

Well well.... Maybe I need another driver. It seems that the face of the SpeedTune is much bigger than the 460HX.

Thanks for the update TSGolfer, So it's a new driver? Don't see it in the shop, are you going to have it, what is the stock shaft? price? Best,

Dear R-Slut, how are you? (bought the 9.5° Romaro head HX gold from you, a year ago) Let us know what you think, you THE Romaro expert! Bluejays, there is a guy looking for your driver in the want to buy section of this forum.... I guess the gold is longer, can you tell me +/- by how much?

Hello, I see you have also the HX 460 gold, how do they compare? Best refards,

Dear All, Any idea, what is this? I know what is the 460HX gold and black, but the black Speed Tune? Any infos? Thanks in advance for your feedback. Best,

Any infos? How does it compare to the previous model? Do you have it with stock shaft? Thanks in advance for your feedback.

What says Duffer! So true. Now about Honma: IMHO the quality is top, way above all the traditional brands (TM, Titleist, Callaway, etc...) If you don't want to mess with a fitter (what I did for a longtime) and buy off the rack stuff, you can't go wrong. Now If you compare with the small Japanese boutique brands, it's different.. I think the main strength of Honma is in their shafts, the Armrq6 and now the Armrq8 They also add a new line, of shafts, the "Vizzard": These are cheaper and made more for the US and European market to compete against the traditional brands. If you have to buy a Honma driver, buy it with an Armrq shaft. According to your swing you have a huge choice in the brand, you can chose different heads (TW serie has 3 different sizes and the Beres has the C-1 and S-02) with different Armrq8 shafts ( 54 & 62 gr). I see you are in HK, Honma has an incredible store there, you should go and have a look. Unfortunately the day I was there the sales persons didn't know much about what they were selling. LOL!

Hey RS! Why you didn't tell me you had this for sale? Just found out.... Shaft is not for me, but I am pretty sure you could have found another shaft that fits my need and I would have take it instead of the Ryoma. Next time. Best regards, AA
