Put together a 29Β° EQ1-NX 6-hybrid (36.5") to most likely replace a 29.5Β° Sterling 7-iron. Couldn't resist matching the ferrule to the crown. Yes, like AdamMH, I too have yet to turn the ferrule.

    There's still some hope for golf club making humanity after all

    May as well put today's build in this thread instead of the other one.....

    Still fully curing, but set. I give you a Maltby KE4 Max 4i with KK shaft at 39" D1.5. Maiden voyage tomorrow,. πŸ˜‰

    Having trouble uploading pics....hopefully soon.

      sdandrea1 They still make 4 irons?

      Like Tom Watson use to say when warming up. if I can hit this 4i well, the rest of the set should
      be easy peasy. I'm not sure it will make the bag, but it might be fun to see if it can replace my
      4hy. Cheap enough, fun experiment. Off to hit it now.... 🏌

      ode I have some shafts curing in All Fit adapters.

      How does that work?

        I put a Tour Swing Okato Green in my SMT AF 460.
        It's my most modern driver combo now.

        LBlack14 they work. One adapter and then you can buy the different collars that fit the specific brand head. The n screw needs to be swapped as well (less TMag, those fit). It's clunky to start but is a nice process to be able to use one shaft in multiple heads. I would think it would be very handy for fitters.

        Eguller thx.....offset barely noticable. I'm use to a thicker topline so that looks fine. πŸ€” Don't know why I'm procrastinating!

          Cautionary tale on the KE4 Max.

          Took it to the range, teed up a fresh ball and tapped the head on the ground - 'rattle'.
          Oh crap. Loose epoxy ? I was careful. Could not ID the area of the problem.
          Got home and decided to dis & re assemble the club. No epoxy plug.....Then it hit me.
          The screw-in weight in the head was loose and rattling. A tiny dab of the blue stuff & cured.

          As far as the KE4 Max....Got to be the best value head I've seen in a while. Feels top notch,
          looks fine at address despite the slightly thicker top line, and hides the small offset. This will
          be my windy day club as I hit mid trajectory bullets with it. I was shocked at how 'pure' it felt.
          Anxious to see what Maltby will do with the new TS3 & TS4 coming out.

            Subsonic They look great time for a full set!

            From my experience with the 4i, it would be hard to pick a more fun set to hit at that price.
            Let us know how they work out for you.... πŸ˜‰
