With these clubs, your golf game will be golden.
I have an uncle who simply has to buy the best of everything when it comes to golf equipment. He takes pride in having the finest quality clubs to play. When something new comes out at the high end of the market, he’s first in line. Sure, each club he procures helps his game. But it also enlarges his self-image. And I’m all for anything that will boost your confidence out on the golf course. Thankfully for my uncle, he has the means to support his habit. And over the past 30 years, I’ve found many people who share his desire for golf’s finest things.
These clubs will raise your game.
Callaway Epic Forged Star Irons

I’m rarely taken aback, the first time I hit any club. But Callaway’s ultra-premium Epic Forged Star irons did just that, when I first tested them this summer. With their “infinite black” finish, they’re gorgeous to look at. And they feel even better. But it all comes down to performance, right? Wow, these are long and straight. Yet they’re also workable. Ball flight is nice and high, and shots seem to soar into the distance. For $2,600 a set, you get all the bells and whistles. There’s a “Suspended Tungsten Core” inside—a metal-injection-molded (MIM) tungsten inside a polyurethane cartridge that’s wrapped with urethane microspheres. That gives you a controlled launch and long, consistent distance. Plus, it has other cool features, such as a 360 Cup Face that helps generate ball velocity; a special variable face thickness pattern in the mid and long irons for spin and control; and lightweight shaft and grip that help enhance your swing speed.
Majesty Golf Royale Driver

New to the market, Majesty Golf’s Royale driver is a pleasant surprise. It feels solid and performs extremely well. You will be pleasantly surprised with the distance you get—it gives you plenty of pop off the tee. To boot, I also find it to be pretty forgiving—it’s not going to correct a drastic hook or slice, but may well bring slight mishits back toward the fairway. The Majesty Royale is also very lightweight and has what the company calls a “refined Spider web face and a three-piece structure,” using a rigid and lightweight honeycomb design that promotes higher ball speed across the face. Its slightly long, ultra-lightweight shaft has double bias technology, tapping two layers of high-elasticity carbon wrapped around the bias area. The company says this helps generate longer tee shots without sacrificing control. It will cost you $1,000 for that privilege.
Titleist CNCPT CP-01 Irons

Every now and then, companies unveil concept products that are loaded with every conceivable technology that you can purchase directly from the manufacturer. Which is where Titleist’s CNCPT CP-01 irons come in. At $500 apiece, these feature golf’s thinnest unsupported, constant-thickness face. A Super Metal L-Face insert produces plenty of ball speed for noticeable distance, while lots of high-density tungsten—it makes up almost half of the total clubhead weight—helps yield high launch with forgiveness for impact made across the face. The company’s engineers told me their assignment was to redefine what’s possible—regardless of cost. Mission accomplished. Their promise to golfers: These will produce the world’s most satisfying ball-striking experience.
Honma Beres S-06 5-Star Driver

The most expensive club on this list, Honma’s Beres S-06 5-Star driver can be yours for $4,300. It’s sexy, no doubt—designed and built in Sakata, Japan by veteran master craftsmen committed to making high-quality and beautiful performance golf clubs. It features advanced materials such as an exotic light gravity titanium body and specially rolled titanium clubface, has an elegantly sculpted wrap-around sole slot that increases speed and forgiveness, and is finished in, what else, but gold. A low-deep center of gravity makes a large sweet spot that generates optimum launch, spin and speed. You have to custom-order the club, so it can take a while to receive. Frankly if you buy the driver, you might as well go all the way with a set of the somewhat matching Beres IS-06 5-Star irons (also $4,300 per club).
PXG 0311T Sugar Daddy Wedge

What good are your irons if you can’t follow them up with accurate chip shots? That’s where the PXG 0311T Sugar Daddy wedges come into play. Your short game is surely worth $650 per wedge. The company calls this milled model the jack-of-all-trades of the high-lofted wedge world, because you can use it with ease from a variety of turf and sand conditions to play pretty much any shot you need. It has a blended sole design for versatility: Its highest bounce angle is in the center, then it tapers off toward the heel and toe. And the tight groove radius creates an aggressive bite into the ball, which generates more backspin on the higher lofts. Traditional grooves on the stronger lofts produce optimal spin, and the wedge is available in eight different lofts. You can also get it in either a chrome or a sultry dark finish. But go for the latter—it’s what the pros prefer, as will you.
