I have been wondering if anyone compared the three sets of irons.

I liked the 701 it has a better feel than the 702. The 703 is yet to be launched in Indonesia.

I just checked out the Honma 703 specs. #s 4-11 are pretty much classic lofts/slightly short lengths for #s 2-9.

Since they don't call the short irons wedges, this is actually an improvement over some of what we've seen lately.

Just think of the new numbers as Celcius instead of Fahrenheit (or something like that)!

"Yeah, I hit a six, but that's Japanese for a four."

Of much more importance, it looks to be quite the handsome golf club.

Classic lofts? The Beres 7 series is 1.5* stronger than the already strong loft Epon 701. As a matter of fact, it is the strong loft and the whip like soft tip action of this particular Armrq shaft that makes the 7 series stand out. I do not have the experience with the 702 and 3 but the 701 has a certain clickiness to the feel due to the undercut. The 701 I've played was just a 2 stars and a very forgiving club and very long.

I think you missed my point, Duff. I meant classic lots, except two full number stampings off! 4=2, 5=3, ......11=9.

Or to put it another way, if you add three-quarters or one inch of length and go 1° flatter, the Beres #s 4-11 are just about dead-on 1950s/1960s #s 2-9 clubs.
