I have the irons previous to these, and they are excellent for mid handicap golfers. They are showing good longevity. The after care from Caley is excellent. And previously you could return them, Ryan said use the seven iron only to test and return them all if not suited. Don't know if that still the case. These irons are fairly priced, high quality and recommended.

These companies most likely aren't doing their own R&D. A number of DTC brands get their club heads from Deson Golf. That's probably why these look almost identical (other than the logos) to the Sub 70 699s and the Takomo 101s.

The launch and spin are about equal, so it looks like the TMs probably have slightly more speed and with that some forgiveness probably within to achieve that speed. timestamp from the other video 9:30 (have to look at the screen) (kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z5q3oWNogLyoaJo) timestamp in this video 8:15 Good stuff Rick!

I agree with you! His numbers were super consistent with that 7 iron. I have a set of PXG GEN3 0311XP. I absolutely love them, and they are extremely forgiving. But I do catch some flyers that just jump off the face and go 10-15 yards further than I want them too. For example, today I had a 194 yard par three. There was about a 6 mph wind behind me so I grabbed my 7 iron, which is at 30° loft that I typically carry 178 average yards. I landed about a yard before the pin, and bounced off the green for a total of 213 yards. That’s the only thing I dislike about these game improvement irons. I’m looking to get into a more player style iron where my numbers will stay consistent. But these iron prices are just getting out of hand.

I almost got some takomo's (which are exactly the same club). I was going to get fitted for p790's and use the length/lie for the 101's. They were out of stock, so I just got fitted for some pxg 0211's xcor 2's($99/stick). I'm so happy to see that there are options for game improvement irons and even players irons that don't cost $1300 for a set. Golf prices have just been through the roof and I think that these DTC brands are going to put the larger companies in a tight spot from a value proposition perspective.

I have Mizuno JPX 923 Tours that I just bought in May and I adore. Expensive set to be sure. The data from these irons is impressive for their price and I'm glad to see that. I don't feel robbed at all having spent nearly 3x the price on my Mizunos but I feel iron prices have just gotten criminal. You even mention it, 20 years ago they were priced around this. Now, I'd understand $800-900 for premium irons and MAYBE $1000 for sets that are 4i-GW but 1400 is just outrageous. Happy to see these direct to consumer brands making real strides in quality while staying cost competitive. Hope it can really humble some of the kings of golf equipment. If only we could get a golf ball that rivals pro v1s for a solid price. For me, I game Bridgestone B RX but still feel like Pro V1s are the absolute best golf ball around. In particular off the face of a blade putter they just give so much feedback and inspire so much confidence that I legitimately save strokes in my putting game with them.

Nice review. Because of their huge R&D budget, clubs from the big brands will almost always perform better than smaller DTC brands. The real question is how big the difference is and if it is worth the ridiculous price difference. It's at least worth testing them out.

Unfortunately guys like Rick or any of the other KZbin golf personalities won't likely ever be reviewing Maltby clubs. I had a chat with Britt Lindsey at Maltby and because they won't participate in giving out free sets for reviews like all of these DTC brands that we're seeing, AND no KZbin reviewer will likely ever come out of pocket to buy a set of Maltbys, this is a dead discussion. It's really unfortunate because Maltby are 100% original designs. Craftsmanship, and quality are far greater than any of these other generic looking DTC models, and they actually have decades of design pedigree and history. Unbeknownst to Rick, a set of TS4's could be his next gamers but he'd never know because they'll never cross his path. 😢

@@AZstu324yeah, I actually live about 20 minutes from their HQ. Really awesome people over there. But I've heard the same about them not really wanting to push their clubs on "influencers". They frankly keep busy enough that they probably don't need it. Still, I wish more people would know about them. They really are outstanding clubs. I haven't hit the TS4 yet. But have gamed the TS1/TS1-IM. Put them up against comparable clubs and they are every bit as good, with zero compromise. They're actually better than a lot of the stuff I've hit from Callaway and TM. I think the only irons that felt better were the Mizuno 223/225. Hoping Rick will see this comment though and shell out a couple hundred bucks for a nice sampling of the Maltby irons. He is one of the most unbiased and genuine reviewers out there.

I think with irons it’s all about what you prefer, when I used to play a lot I played the titleist 714 mbs and they were amazing, for a blade they were forgiving, went miles, could hit all kinds of shots with them, now after not playing for a few years, I started playing a little after lockdown and got given a set of the taylormade p790s, I truly find they are nowhere near as good, the feel and looks are nowhere near what I expected, if I was to play more no way would I keep them in the bag, the only club I find amazing is the 2 iron, for me I don’t feel irons have come a long way in the last 10 years tbh, so maybe the cheaper irons have caught up and its worth saving the money for a decent driver, the driver is the second most important club in the bag now (putter always first) the big brands are untouchable with the big stick

Hi Rick. Has your opinion changed on the clubs since half the 'technologies' they claimed have been withdrawn, like the tungsten weight and areofoam?

@RickShielsPGA, If you had to describe the difference in feel between Aerofoam hollow body iron to a full solid metal forged blade, how does they differ from each other?

These look like great irons for a player who knows they want to play Golf, but maybe aren't ready for a fitting since their swings are WIP. If I knew about these a few years ago, I probably would have purchased since I was using 20 year old hand me downs

You should cut it apart and compare it to a p790… can’t imagine them being that much different

Please do the Takomo 301CB and MB and the Sub 70 659 CB’s, TC’s and MB’s. I’m stuck between getting Sub 70 659 TC/MB combo or the Takomo 301 CB/MB combo sets.

I'm probably not the first to make this observation but it would have been nice to match the 7 iron against a 790, both wet and dry.

Rick to improve for us that looking at your video. Maybe You should introduce weight system where You classify the club You testning in different for you important funktion and looks. Like forgivness, lenght, spinn etc

Hey Rick, I love this channel man. So good to see your insight further in depth with numbers etc. I’ve purchased a Taylormade brnr mini because my driver is a bit wayward. I’d love to see your thoughts on the club reviewed on this channel and even compare to your daily driver. Thanks

PXG pioneered the foam technology that has allowed iron faces to become thinner so they are hotter and more forgiving.
