Limited Release Futura 5MBS Japan

The Limited Release Futura 5MBS Japan shipped in 2017 with a 303 stainless body and a 6061 aircraft aluminum face-sole, a combination that runs through the Futura line's push toward mixed-metal construction rather than a single milled block. Loft is set at 3.5 degrees with 70 degrees of lie, and the head carries no offset, a detail that separates it from the more face-forward, offset-heavy members of the Futura family built for players who need help squaring the face at impact.

The build comes to 34 inches with a pair of 20 gram weights in the sole for balancing, and the whole thing is finished with an 11 inch School Bus Yellow Matador Mid-size grip, a color and size choice that reads as a deliberate statement piece rather than a quiet stock setup. Against the rest of the Futura 5MBS releases, the zero offset and the loud grip are the two details on record that mark this one out as its own variant rather than a straightforward reissue.
