Technology
Larger sweet spot increases
ball speed off all parts of the club face.
A slot positioned near the leading edge of the sole of the driver flexes at impact to create high initial ball speed and prevent power loss on shots struck away from face center.
Ti5N Titanium
Honma engineers use high-rigidity, high-strength Ti5N titanium in the club face to maximize face flexion.
Power loss is prevented as much as possible on shots struck away from the sweet spot of the club face.
Ultra-thin crown
Super low specific gravity titanium alloy “Ti811” is used to reduce crown thickness to 0.45mm.
It reduces weight by about 3g to give us more flexibility to maximize CG design.
HIGH SWING SPEED THROUGH SUPERIOR SHAFT MATERIALS AND DESIGN
The new ARMRQ shafts are made in Sakata Japan using the most sophisticated materials in the industry.
Multi-axis Metal Hybrid Armour fiber technology visible below the grip increases strength under the hands and provides counterbalance to increase swing speed.
For 3S grade and above new high strength, shape memory Twist Fleuret material is used to increase energy transfer to increase your distance potential.
5S grade shafts have additional bias plys of T1100G material the full length of the shaft to improve recovery and provide the highest opportunity to increase your distance.
All grades of thenew ARMRQ shafts feature a high smash factor profile with a softer mid-section.

Metal Hybrid Armor Technology
A new 7-axis material consisting of 2-axis aluminum and 5-axis carbon weave increases
compression strength to reduce ovalization in the butt for increased stability. This also creates an
additional 5 millimeters of counterbalance for increased swing speed.
Performance by Grade
ARMRQ Grade :
★★(2S)
★★★(3S)
★★★★(4S)
★★★★★(5S)
As star level increases, the stability on off-center strikes increases.

Faster Swing Speeds at Higher Star Levels
To this point, ARMRQ shafts differentiated only in consistency and appearance across star levels, but with the new ARMRQ, the higher grade you use, the greater distance performance you will achieve through an increase of swing speed. The higher the star level, the longer you’ll hit it.
