If you’re a keen golfer with an eye to looking the part on the course then you should take a look at the Honma Twin Marks MG-R18. With a price tag of around $16,000 these clubs have become a favourite for golf loving celebrities and royalty alike.
Honma, the Japanese golf club manufacturer producing these clubs have a pedigree that has been honed since 1959 by company founder Hiro Honma. In order to create something completely unique the Twin Marks MG-R18 5-Star Amazing Spec irons have been designed with gold cavity heads, as well as gold and platinum rings and a gold ingot in the grip cap.
