I had the chance to demo a ts1-I’m and ts4 and Ts3 vs my current ts2
I honestly couldn’t tell a huge difference between any of them. All were excellent, felt great, had expected distance, were reasonably forgiving. The ts3 and 4 had the highest trajectories, but the diff was minimal. The TS 4 did have a few clunky mis hits but it was user error not the design.
If I were to change I’d likely go with the ts4 as I liked the look , but I could play any. I’ll likely stay with the ts2 for now though as I come back from injury
Maltby TS1 IM v ts4 v ts3 v ts2 - quick review of demo seasion
The TS4 is gorgeous and very playable for a blade. I like the TS1-IM and TS3 best. I found the TS1 and TS2 to perform just as well, but I didn't care for the feel as much. I could play any of those models and be happy though.
If you are a sweeper or shallow divot taker, you will love the trajectory and feel of the
forged TS3 with it's low VCOG and great look at address. It really is just a matter of which
head fit your swing tendencies.

Finally got some quality time in the Sim yesterday with that Maltby TS3 8 iron demo I built up with @LogicalOne 85S graphite (standard tipping and 36 3/4” length).
TS3 had the best trajectory, distance and dispersion for me.
Was comparing to my Ping iE1 with CFS 70 regular flex (37” length) and Alpha C2 forged with @LogicalOne 85S graphite soft stepped once and at 36.5” length.
There is something about this TS3 man…and yes I am a picker/sweeper…don’t think I have ever sliced a pelt of turf 
And the feel is top notch with the TS3. Told yaaaaa.

Yes you did 
Agree…it is a soft “tight” feel to me…if that makes sense
TS3 feel is great but my spin level was off the charts. Holding out for the TS3.5 or the KE4 forged for my next Golfworks build.

I am also waiting to see how these turn out…
Although, I am still tempted to grab 4ea. TS3 heads (6,7, 9 & PW) and build them to match this 8 iron demo
I thought these guys had a hollow iron as well.
backinit I thought these guys had a hollow iron as well.
The TS1 IM is hollow with da goo
- Edited
backinit depends on ones definition of hollow....the TS1, ts1-im, and ts2 are, although they are all goo filled, so not a one piece or solid piece/co-forged like they refer to the ts3 which has tungsten...also note that the TS1 and 2 were hollow/goo filled 3-9i and pw/GW a solid one piece forging.....not sure if that carried through on the TS1-IM, I suspect not as the face changed from carbon steel to maraging steel.
I’m much better with the TS2 or the TS1-IM (higher COG) in the Maltby lineup.
