(standard set is 5-10 irons), the forged Honma S-03 is a large-faced iron, toe and heel-weighted for a high MOI, and a deep, low COG for a stable, penetrating trajectory. A wide power face reduces miss-hits, and the model is 10% larger than 2013’s equivalent. Over 100 Honma craftsmen work on


every single club the company produces. Each clubhead is precisely finished, measured and balanced by hand, before it is shipped to the customer. Prices aren’t for the faint-hearted but


the emphasis is on real quality. Prices start at £955 (S-03 Driver 2 Star), £545 (S-03 Fairways 2 Star) and £2,295 (set of six IS-03 irons 2 Star). Honma’s Star System offers graduated options for clubheads and shafts as regards performance, materials and finish, running from 2 Star to the ultimate in golf equipment, Honma’s 5 Star grade. S-03 5 Star Woods are £5.095 and a set of six 5 Star IS-03 irons is £26,995.
