Maltby TS3 Forged DBM Iron Pak – Dynamic Gold 115 Gunmetal Tour Issue

Head swap for the pak is no problem, just need to contact customer service, like Shrek74 said. As far as new models, there are a few, but the TS3 will continue as is at least through 2027.  Our best...

Robo testing irons article compare to Maltby irons

Interesting article and data.  Thanks for sharing.  I have done robot testing in my career and it is great for ball testing.  It can give you some valuable information in club testing, but is not as...

I don't think the post could be bent that much. It's a relatively short hosel post, so not really meant to be bent that much. A degree or two, maybe. Britt Lindsey

In 2014 we had the KE4 Tour HDI (Hybrid Driving Irons) and we had a #1 with 17 deg. loft. I think 2016 was the last year we had that model. Current TS-UI Hybrid Driving Iron Hybrid comes in a 2,3,4 and...

As far as the shaft to try with the 4 UI, I like the SteelFiber. I use the 95 g weight. My irons have the Nippon Pro Modus 120, so you can see I did go lighter in the driving iron. Lighter in the longer...

Face On Putter Build

We could not build the putter you describe.  The RT head has a 72 degree bore angle and uses a straight shaft, so no way to get to the 80 degree lie angle you are wanting.  Possibly using a head, not...

reshafting old Callway 1 iron

We have in our database that the X12 irons took a .370" parallel tip shaft.  No idea the head weight, but if Callaway says 40" is the standard length, I would want to know if that was with a graphite...

No progress on getting a water activated tape.  Still working on it with our supplier. As far as which solvent works best with our tape, either the All Purpose or the Pro Blend.  Slight difference in...

4 and 5 iron change

I can speak for myself, in that I play the TS4's 5-PW.  I put the TS-UI Di #4 to replace the #4 and absolutely love it.  I do, from time to time remove the #4 and put in the #3 as well, but mostly stick...

Short-ish 7 wood for 5’7″ son.

Based on the 41" and a head weight of 228 (with the heaviest 14 gram weight installed) and a grip weight of 50.5g (the weight of the Z cord standard), the swing weight calculator tells me it would be C9.1....

Short-ish 7 wood for 5’7″ son.

Difficult to recommend a playing length for the #7 wood without actually fitting him, but can offer some things to consider.  First, the toe sitting a little up is not unusual for a fairway wood.  There...

Rapport hybrid shaft

We don't have any data on the newest Diamana Blue (BB) Hybrid yet as they have not delivered those yet in 2026.  MCA tells us they delayed them until late summer or fall.  Once we receive them we will...

Ferrule question

After prepping the shafts, installing those ferules with a little epoxy should not be a problem.  You can warm up the ferrules a little if needed to make them more pliable, but really shouldn't be necessary. ...

Shaft Options

First thing to know is what weight shaft you really are wanting.  The KBS is 57g and the Xcal appear to be 75g range.  That's quite a difference.  If you are looking at going to a lighter graphite,...

I'm sure he did not mean anything by it. Still... Needs to send us a #6 iron and let us measure it. See how it rates in the MPF. Britt Lindsey

Forward Golf?

Interesting.  I think we, the actual Maltby brand and company, have been doing a pretty good job of carrying on the legacy for a while now.  Not sure the timing or the wording is quite right on their...
