It's sad but I think it would be passed over because it is Honma. Just like the majority of the "follow the herd" golfers don't give W/S and TEE a second glance.I have a question for those following this thread and driver. Is $599 in a little bit of no man's land? Meaning less than the super premium drivers, but not much more than the market share leaders. Does it get passed over because of it?
That being said, even those golfers that realize that there is more to life than the number and color of the stars a certain magazine gives each club could, understandably, be hesitant to spend more than they would for one of the market leaders. Especially since they know that in a few months those drivers will go on sale.
The super premium crowd will pass on the TW series of clubs for the same reason they pass over the "C" class Mercedes. Yes, it has the same hood ornament but it's not an "S" class.
