Honma is best known for its meticulously crafted, premium players’ clubs, but this new golf ball range and its very reasonable price tags show that there is more to the Japanese brand than meets the eye.
First up we have an all-new premium 4-piece urethane ball–called the X4.
It features the softest core ever made by the brand and joins an improved 3-piece TW-X and a new TW-S ball.
Honma X4 Golf Balls
Honma says the X4 is developed to combat the issue of distance loss off the tee, without sacrificing short game spin.
An Ultra-Soft Core delivers high compression off the club face, while a High-Performance Polymer (HPP) inner mantle and High Flex layer provide increased ball speed with the driver for a longer distance.
The soft urethane covers aid performance with a softer feel around the greens, while the 326-dimple design also produces consistency in the wind.
Honma TW-S Golf Balls
Aimed at golfers with swing speeds of around 85 mph who prefer a softer feel, the new TW-S ball offers higher spin and a lower launch than the TW-X, making it perfectly suited for windy conditions.
Its S-fast core results in faster ball speeds off the club face.
The new version of the TW-X is designed for golfers with swing speeds over 90 mph who want a firmer feel and longer distance.
