I’ve been playing Maltby clubs for years. As a Christmas present, to myself, I recently ordered a set of TE Forged irons. Most the people I play with, or encounter randomly, are puzzled by this. They seem to be laboring under the misapprehension that a 320 dollar set of irons couldn’t possibly be as good (or better) than a set costing 3 times as much. Shouldn’t performance enter into the discussion somewhere? Why are so many people suspicious of clubs that don’t cost the earth; or brands they are unfamiliar with?
Thanks Michael. It just puzzles me, sometimes, when I make a club for someone, they like it and hit it well, then turn up a month later with used (fill in the blank) they bought on-line…for as much or more than they paid me for a brand new, made to order, golf club. Not saying I haven’t had some successes; but it still seems odd that so many put so much stock in paying too much. Ah well…that’s life in the food chain. Thanks again for the reply.
