We recently reviewed the Honma TR21 Big-LB and have nothing but good things to say. Having put out hands on the TR21 hybrid since then, we’re here yet again to sing the praises of the Honma brand.
Designed with many of the same materials and characteristics of the TR21 Big-LB fairway wood, this hybrid is a step above many of its more widely publicized competitors. That’s because Honma isn’t trying to manufacture as many clubs as possible and sell them to the masses like other companies. While they want to get their clubs into the hands of discerning players, they’re focused on ensuring the quality and performance of their equipment above all else.
Key Features
- Tour-proven high-speed face affords maximum ball speed and distance.

Who Should Buy the Honma TR21 Hybrid?

The days of trying to hit long irons to small targets a long way away are over. The TR21 is a game changer that’s sure to help almost any player shoot lower scores and have more fun.
Honma TR21 Hybrid Detailed Review
Design and Technology
The head of the Honma TR21 hybrid is constructed of the finest steel around. An ultrathin, high-speed face produces high ball speeds which result in explosive distance.
The TR21 is also one of the most adjustable hybrids on the market. That’s thanks to a non-rotating hosel that allows you to customize both loft and lie angle while maintaining shaft spine alignment.
VIZARD graphite shafts are designed exclusively for Honma in Sakata, Japan.
While the design and look of the TR21 is clean and simple, it’s full of design and technological features that far surpass other hybrids on the market.

The TR21 comes in lofts of 18, 21 and 24 degrees. Lengths are 40.5”, 40” and 39.5” respectively. Lie angles are 57, 57.5 and 58 degrees.
VIZARD shaft options include the TR20-65 and TR20-75.
The TR20-65 comes in regular or stiff flex and the swing weight for both is D1.5.
The TR20-75 shaft is available in stiff flex with a swing weight of D2.5.
