Key technologies for your game and playing comfort
Maximum flex for greater speed: Triple Sole Slot
The underside of the head (sole) features three strategically positioned slots (Triple Sole Slot), complementing the ultra-thin crown construction.
-
What this means for you: At impact, the entire lower section of the head flexes efficiently and then propels the ball forward with enormous energy.
-
Benefits to your game: You gain exceptional initial ball speed even when the shot is struck low on the face. The ball launches easily into the air with a high trajectory and low spin, providing a stable carry distance and a long roll on the fairway.
Flexible steel face: Flexible Face Insert
A thin, flexible hardened-steel insert forms the heart of this fairway wood’s face.
-
What this means for you: This construction maximizes the trampoline effect across the entire face.
-
Benefits to your game: Even shots struck away from the ideal center (sweet spot) maintain high speed and a penetrating flight. This significantly reduces distance loss on mishits, giving you consistent results and confidence on the course.
Easy launch from any lie: Low CG Design by loft
The positioning and distribution of the center of gravity (CG) are individually designed for each wood according to its loft.
-
What this means for you: Each clubhead has a specifically optimized center of gravity to match its loft.
-
Benefits to your game: Whether you are playing from a perfectly manicured fairway, deeper rough or the tee, the club helps you get under the ball easily and launch it with the ideal launch angle. The natural draw bias also helps close the clubface at impact, eliminating a slice and keeping your shots in the intended corridor.
Premium ARMRQ MX shaft: The engine of your swing
The fairway wood is fitted with the exclusive ARMRQ MX graphite shaft, handcrafted at Honma’s Japanese headquarters in Sakata from the highest-quality materials (Torayca M40X and T1100G carbon fibers).
-
What this means for you: The shaft uses new 10-axis armor technology (4 aluminum axes and 6 carbon axes) as well as a counterbalance system.
-
Benefits to your game: The shaft does not twist during the swing (high torsional stability) and makes the clubhead feel lighter. This allows you to increase swing speed effortlessly and ensures that the clubhead returns to impact in the perfect square position relative to the ball every time. The result is an incredibly smooth swing feel and maximum control over shot direction.
