I currently play PING g400 4h and 5h with a recoil ESX hybrid shaft..

I use these as iron replacements at the same length as a standard 5i or 4i, as the hybrid design helps me get a little more height and spin.

Problem I have is that the G400 hybrids, and most hybrids for me in general, tend to have a draw bias or closed looking face, and I tend to hook or miss left often, yet have no trouble fading my irons.

Which Maltby hybrid design would provide the highest launch and most neutral to open face st address, or possibly provide less draw bias than the g400s I currently play? I really want to eliminate the left side of the course with my hybrids.

Our current KE4 Tour TC hybrids have a square face angle and are not designed to be draw biased. Our new KE4 TC Pro Hybrids are not either and also have a square face. I have had a similar issue with some hybrids and all I can say is that in testing with our new TC Pro hybrids, I did not see the left miss that I have occasionally with other hybrids. I can’t really tell you why, but for me they were good. I play the TC Tour hybrids occasionally (depends on the course) and I do like them, but have moved to the FDI hybrids mostly because of course I play the types of shots I need for that course. The new TC Pro hybrids are a little different shape, kind of in between our TC Tour and the HyWay utility hybrids. I prefer that shape for that kind of hybrid. Again, nothing in the design of either of our Tour TC hybrids is draw biased. The new MA0363 KE4 TC Pro Hybrids are suppose to ship May 10th, so we should have some in stock by late May.

Great! I was looking at the new TC Pro hybrids in the catalog actually, and thought they might fit the bill… it appears to have a slightly more shallow face, which usually helps me get a little more launch from the fairways, which is where I use my hybrids a lot actually.. my longest iron in my bag is a 6i, and then I move into an iron length 5h and 4h… I’d even consider swapping out the 6i for a 30-32 degree hybrid if you ever consider developing one! ** hint hint **

Thanks for the advice again, appreciated.
Britt, are the weights of the new TC Pro hybrids correct in the online catalogue? They are much higher per loft than previous models, which I think is a good thing.
