Now In stock. @DonM are you ordering? 🤔 https://www.golfworks.com/maltby-ke4-max-iron-heads/p/ma0337/

Par4QC That's what I was afraid of. I'd like to go at least 2 flat and at least 1/2" over.

For an extra $5 per head, they can either hand select or bend. Break out the rusty money. 😉

colej

IMO, it would be difficult to get them to 2* flat. I really struggled to get them 1* flat. I don’t do a steady pressure either. I try to bounce on them to get them to bend.

Eguller

sdandrea1 No, I'll play them std lie. My swing won't know.

Really curious to hear how you get along with the KE4 Max. I'd think they'd be spot on for you.
Go hit them ! 😜

They may go out on Wednesday. For sure they're going to Florida with me next weekend. See how they do off tight Bermuda.

DonM

sdandrea1 Funny you mention that. As it's gotten super hot here, they are watering more, and I have shifted back to the STi's with their bigger soles vs the TS2's with the lower sharper leading edges. I was sticking the TS2 in the ground 2 or 3 times a round and hurting my elbow. The STi barely takes a divot.

I dug some septic tanks holes with the Eye 2s!

$30/head for 17-4 cast is a bit steep IMO. Weight adjustment I would do on build out so interchangeable screws meh. I don't see the interest but that's just me. 😊

Of course you don't. You're not a hobbyist who likes to tinker with the latest offerings just because they're new. 😉

scotts33 What are some more affordable options?

It's a sign of the times. Even cast clone iron heads are selling for $12

scotts33 I would agree, but it's pretty hard to find reasonably priced golf stuff these days. I don't think they needed to add the screw either, but it is kind of a cool look and you couldn't say that about older Maltby designs. I sort of miss the days of inexpensive (but good quality) Maltby heads, but the last few years their stuff has gotten a LOT better IMO.

For hobbyists, I don't think you can beat Hireko/Value.

For me Swing Science, I use both FC-One 431 SS options for my clients and it makes decent heads affordable as an actual fit end buyer. I pass the savings on to my clients. In the $15/head range. Both Jeff Sheets designs and good for what they are designed for.

KCee I don't think they needed to add the screw either,

Possibly a COG issue, but a screw makes it easy to change weights without lead tape or a disassembly.
Non issue IMO. Virtually hidden. I was honestly surprised how nice these felt on a good hit - flight too. 🏌
Now.....we await PappaD's review. 🤔

bad9

KCee Don't sleep on the M890 irons. Very forgiving, easy to launch with sensible lofts. They feel pretty good too. I put together a set to leave at my place in Nova Scotia and found they play really well for me. Have them on Xcaliber RT75 a flex shafts. The hybrids are nice too.

They're going out tomorrow. Stand by. Hope I'm hitting it as well as I did today.

The fc one swing science heads have a weight port in them (like the old golfsmith and wishon heads do)?

Meh 😄

bad9 I recently built an M890 hybrid and it's a nice club. I also have a KE4 Tour 4 wood in the bag. I might have gotten Golfworks irons, but I had a ton of pro shop credit last year so I went with some TM irons.

Built 2 sets now for VA buddies. They are nice SGI clubs. The M890 hybrid is a sleeper too.

sdandrea1

Played 18 holes in a family scramble today. Hit the KE4 Max 9, W, or G at least once on every hole.
Caveats:

My swing is in a good place right now
This is my first KE4 build of any model.
This is my first build with these Integra shafts (Professional 50g)

This is AN EXCELLENT GI club head!! Feel is almost forged -like. Not clicky......solid.
Flight is surprisingly high for the strong lofts. My shots landed and almost stopped. At address they are very "Callaway" looking (think Rogue, XR,). I held the 9i right next to my buddy's Rogue and the Callaway has a touch more offset. Distance - wise they're a full club longer than my GigaGolf but that's loft I guess. What I liked MOST was the sole design. This sole is TURF FRIENDLY!!!! I'm ordering the 7i & 8i. PapaD tested, PapaD approved. They're worth $30/head to me.

Oh, and as stated above, the screws were all loose. You'll hear a rattle. I plan to remove them, put a touch of silicone sealant on them and screw them back in tight.

sdandrea1 How do they compare to the Ping G425s you had earlier in the year?

Loctite, gorilla glue, and plumbers tape will also work on those weights.
