Nice gear. Why did you go TS2 over TS1 in the longer stuff? I've hit both and found them to be quite similar!

[ajgoodal.704]

I read a lot of Popeye's posts about the TS2s and his experience with them. When I'm at my best I drive down into the ball and take a good size divot which seems from more suited to the TS2. I opted for the TS1 in the GW more so to test out and because they are so beautiful I had to have at least one in the bag. I've hit it pretty solid so far. I think I could easily bag a full set of either. You may see a TS1 9 and PW go in at some point.

Nice job. You need more pics of the putter and shafts. Haha

[Dgott0502]

Nice!

Where did you get the shaft for the putter?

 

Was thinking of making one but I couldn’t find a black shaft in a flare tip.

 

Edit: Nevermind I see it doesn’t take a flare tip. Would still like to see more pictures.

I will say right off the bat Maltby makes some good stuff. It is also a good inexpensive way to change up some within a set like you mentioned on the PW and maybe the 9 iron. Me I mess around with the older stuff a lot but say someone told me I had to build and play new stuff that is absolutely the way I would go for the quality and the price.

[ajgoodal.704]

Great point Stu. I love the fact that for $100 I can switch those 2 heads out compared to around $300 or more for the big names.

Liking the Maltby irons. Had a set of the MTF (predated the TE) and they were a high quality forging. I’ve been really intrigued by their new stuff, especially the TS1/2 sets. Very solid bag you have,

[ajgoodal.704]

Thanks Cy. I’ve been wanting to build a set of Maltbys for awhile. I had built a bunch of different demos but none never hooked me like the TS2 did.

Thanks for the pics. Do you have the Apollo or fst shaft in the putter?

[ajgoodal.704]

Its the Apollo PVD

[budnc6721]

How long have you had it and play and what are you general impressions of the putter?

[ajgoodal.704]

Just over a month. I had the larger sink grip on it at first but was having issues releasing so I put the smaller version on and have found some touch. I feel like especially from 6 feet in I’m putting it right on my target line and making a lot more putts. For $60 I really can’t complain.
