Honma T//World-X irons hit retail
Honma T//World-X irons are available now for pre-order and will arrive at retail on June 17, the company announced today.
The popularity of the high-launch TW-X long irons among tour pros prompted the Sakata, Japan-based company to extend the line through mid and short irons.
According to the company, the prototype TW-U utility irons (pictured below) spawned the T//World-X, which the Honma calls a “players distance iron with strong game improvement features.”
“The new T//World-X irons truly offer something for every level of golfer who appreciates a blade iron but wants playability. The full set can be played by low-single digit players all the way to mid and higher handicaps, and the long irons have already been put in play by the best in the world,” said Honma’s Vice President of Product Chris McGinley.
Honma describes the TW-X as a hollow-construction forged iron featuring a S25C and MS300 high-strength steel face.
Retailing for $175/club steel and $200/club graphite shafts, the TW-X are available in a 4-10 full set configuration and 5-11 full set configuration.
Additionally, single TW-X irons will be available.

Spotted: Nate Lashley’s Ping PLD “Wolverine” putter
Ping PLD putters have been a very common site on profesional tours. Pros seem to gravitate toward the PLD line’s custom options and precision milling. We have seen the PLD line expanded over the years, but we haven’t seen too many, if any, large mallets.
This week we spotted a PLD putter in Nate Lashley’s bag that has a similar look to the old Ping Wolverine head shape. This putter is a large mallet with the famous “claws” on the outside and oval center that housed the alignment aid.
Nick’s putter has the PLD logo on the back but also looks like it might have an insert installed on the face. It is hard to tell but at the address picture, it looks like the face is a lighter material than the rest of the putters. The putter is center-shafted and should be face-balanced with a high MOI for stability and forgiveness on mishits. The sole is completely milled and has no markings of name or technologies that might be present in the head. A single white site line is on the top of the putter for alignment.
Nick’s putter is finished off with a chrome steel shaft and a Super Stroke Zenergy Flatso 2.0 grip in black and white.

Oh, so the “3” iron here is 18 and on down from there.
Notice they no longer sell the TW-U 2.
