Thank you, Gabe! I'm a sucker for a good wedge review and this was a good one! They're in my lofts, too! I've always thought us mere mortals don't need lofted wedges over 58° unless you put in the required practice each week.
Got the 52* .90 and the 1.05 58* with my ts3s. Youre on point as usual. I think the original Maltby wedge, the TSW are a bit softer and traditional, but these are more forgiving and spin better due to the closer milled grooves. I added 6 grams (3 swing weights) to each head by changing weights to get them to play d6. Love getting my thoughts confirmed. Another great vid ty stu and Play through
One of the best things about these wedges is the ability to order just the heads. It's not hard to change a golf head and you can have very economical fresh grooves for those that play more often.
Not only does Maltby have wedge paks as several others have said you can select the custom shop option and get many more combos and most for less than $100 all built to spec. I just ordered a TS3 test 5 iron through the custom shop. Now to be sure it cost more per club than ordering a pak but I wanted a different shaft and it was still just $92 a club which is far better than the $200 to $220 a club from other major OEM manufacturers. And, yep, the TS3 is every bit as good as you said it was. Better feel and more distance than the loft difference alone would suggest over my old TE Forged for sure. I've played Maltby clubs off and on for two decades and never been disappointed. I've built my own clubs for a long time as a fun hobby and still tinker but when I can have Maltby do it for free and get the setup I want without the major OEM expense that's a deal in my book.
Gabe as always, thanks for the awesome review! I had a feeling that you might get along well with these wedges. I've mentioned it before, but just like the infamous Jules and Vincent from my favorite movie, these guys are my gangsters! They do my dirty work, they keep me safe, and they simply just get $hit done!
Love that the screws can manipulate the weighting on these wedges. I've put a 1 gr lead tape strip in aproximately the same position of my wedges, as I tend to shut the face a little too much. I then don't use tape on P to 7, and a 1gr lead strip on my 6 to 4 Irons near the heel, as I tend to push those a little. It'll probably have to do with ball position but this helps me a lot coming straighter through the ball throughout the bag.
I have a max milled in 56 and a tsw in 52. I like the extra grooves and heft to keep me more stable on the short shots, but prefer something a little smaller on fuller shots. Both are fantastic and both put sone great spin on the ball. I also have the ts1 im set as well, and 3,4,5 maltby hybrids. Alll great clubs, and if u live near Columbus like I do, you can go to golf works and swing any one of them and also sign up for a custom fitting. Best money ive ever spent.
I’d love to play these clubs. Such a great value but only have one lefty option in the irons and wedges and it’s not the type I would use. If the lefty selection gets better I will definitely look to get my next set from Maltby. Great video!
Maltby does have club pak wedges "Fully Assembled clubs" but the wedges are limited. The wedge you are playing must be am older special release? Maltby deserves more love for sure. I have their hybrids and they perform VERY well. . Thanks for the review!!!. I have a 54 degree Maltby wedge and love it.
I'm a bit of a toe striker myself. Not that I can't hit the sweet spot, but that I prefer to stay well clear of the hosel, just in case. Clubs with the sweet spot about 1/2" out from the center would work better for me.
Thanks for sharing! I'm a long-time subscriber and really enjoy your content. I bought some Legato golf balls on the black Friday sale. Was able to play a round with them today and was really impressed. They truly play like a premium ball. I played the same 2 balls all day and they held up great. I didn't notice any scuffs and I know I hit at least one tree! 😊
I have a 52 and 56 TSW in the DRM finish. Great performer, excellent price, zero compromise. Maltby is by far the best bang for your buck, especially the new line of irons and wedges
@@LetsPlayThruso the TSW wedges are their true "player's" profile wedges. I played them a little while back and they're really nice. DRM (diamondized raw metal) is similar to their DBM (black) that you experienced with the TE+ set. It's more of a pewter color but it's a "raw" finish that can oxidize over time without actually allowing for the metal to corrode and break down. I switched to the Max because I also like the full face grooves and they're just so easy to play. FYI in 2025 they have a whole new wedge line coming. This line up is much more extensive with more sole grinds and specialty options AND some lefty options too.
I also play the tsw wedges. I'm not the most experienced wedge player so the leading edge does give me some grief on wet tight lies but overall they play well. 50 degree is very good with 75-90 percent shots. I've thought about switching to max milled but will wait to see what the new wedges are like.
I'm an 8hc. And even for me the TSW wedges just dug on me way to hard. I'm also pretty steep so, they just weren't for me. The Max Milled on the other hand are hands down perfect!
Hello Gabe. Even though golf season is over for the upper Midwest, I’m going to pull the trigger on the TS3s - based on your reviews. Will be interesting to see how they compare to my gamers, Wilson DP forged.
Hey Gabe they do paks on the second page of the paks for wedges. You’ll find all their wedges on that second page iirc. I have a 60 degree max milled pak and it’s the best damn wedge I’ve had.
@@LetsPlayThru so the Paks are for individual clubs. You can have a single wedge built for $57 with the same shafts that are in the wedges you tested and the giveaway set. So basically for a little more than 1 vokey you can get a complete set built. Oh, and the Paks for this wedge are on the 2nd page of the Pak listings. Thanks again Gabe!
I’ve been gaming a set of the max milled 50,54,58 for about 4 months and I don’t see myself playing a different wedge anytime soon! These are incredible
Always struggle with less than full shots with wedges. I'm interested in new wedges, maybe I need to give these a try. Not sure if I can get them in Canada?
Been playing Golfsmith (remember them?) and Maltby for many years now, I wondered when golf component sources would begin to get their due. There are others but Maltby definitely one of the best. And - at prices then cannot be beat.
Prior to these, I had 2 TW grind wedges. Those were really great but these spin way more, feel better, and are pretty much like cheating if you have a decent wedge game. They're just so easy to play.. I'd even dare say fun 😜
Recently got a set of takomos and am using my gap wedge from my previous set of callaway xrs. I have been looking at wedges I have 2 sm9 I bought 3 years ago and am not sure if I want to have that in a 50 degree or want to go with something more forgiving these look nice
Vokeys are great no doubt.. but these are something special. These wedges easily outperform my Cleveland RTX 4's, Vokey SM9's, and TM MG4 TW wedges.. and cost 1/3 of any of them.
@@AZstu324how is the groove durability on the newer maltby clubs. My first set of clubs was maltby forged wedges and Toski t-54 irons. The grooves wore down significantly faster than PXG or Titleist irons or wedges. Maltby clubs are very forgiving but with the hero discount I found the PXG clubs to be a better value than the older maltbys with the soft 8620 forged heads.
@SasquatchTour I've been playing Maltby clubs for a good 6-7 years. I haven't had any issues with the grooves wearing out.. Disclaimer.. because of Maltby 's pricetag, and being a hobby club builder, I'm getting a new set every 1-2 years, or whenever they have a new release which is about that often. I know Maltby used to use 1020C on their forged heads but they moved exclusively to 1025 in the past couple years due to better durability. IMO 1020c is just too soft with little to no difference in feel to 1025c. These particular wedges are actually form-forged 8620c. Form forging is kind of like a hybrid of both casting and forging. The end result is a much more durable product but still retaining some good forged feel qualities. I don't see the grooves and microgrooves going anywhere between now and whenever I decide I just feel like new wedges. FYI, these have some really nice micro-milled grooves that swirl around the club face. So between the extra tighter face grooves and the microgrooves, these things spin like no other wedge I've played. Last note.. I did play a set of their original TS1s for almost 3 years. When I sold them, there was really only some bag chatter and scuffs on the soles. The faces were in near perfect shape and that's from 3 years of 1-2 rounds/week and a lot of practice. Hopefully that helped any 😁
@@AZstu324thanks for the reply. I build or at least reshaft all my clubs from woods, irons, to wedges. I was incorrect about the metal. My maltbys clubs were the 1020c metal I bought in 2005 which explains the durability issues you mentioned. I have never seen the grooves get completely rounded on any club after 2 years like the maltbys dd. If Golfworks solved the durability issue I may need to give their new wedges and irons a look. Worst case scenario is I have a travel set.
What other Tampa area courses do you enjoy to play? I’ve been playing Waterlefe and Esplanade (public course) and recently took a day to visit Cabot. Any recommendations to some must visit courses in the area?
Man I just got the Kirkland signature 2 wedge set because of the price and value mabe I should of got maltby they look alot cooler I live in Canada so I can't use my Kirkland wedges until May
I’m very never won anything in my life. I’ve earned everything with the grace of God. I would love to win these wedges as I am looking for a new set and want a full face wedge which I have never had. I ended this season with a 7 handicap at 56 years old.
I posted a main comment, but these wedges are my gangsters. They do my dirty work, they keep me safe, and they just get $hit done! And PF is also my favorite movie. So I thought the theme was fitting 😁

Yes and at $49.99 it's pretty much stealing
Metal wedge shafts can be used over and over with no issue. And they take taper tip or .370

I am really happy you and many other reviewers are talking about DTC brands. They are filling a much needed product/price gap.
Wedge paks are available on the website. I have this wedge in a 60degree.

Many modern drivers seem to favor toe strikes. I’ve noticed I can squeak out a few more yards if the strike is just right of center.
@LetsPlayThru
I think you're right. I tend to hit woods towards the heel and irons towards the toe.
You can adjust the sweetspot location by adjusting weights. Or adding some weight on these will greatly help keep it straight on toe shots.
@ughhstuff
Yep. I have a set of Maltby TE's that I'm going to play with lead tape towards the toe.

Nice! I knew I was missing it.
Maltby are just insane value, and lpt's video reviews make me hit the golf works web page practically every time.
They have wedge packs also

I have these same wedges. They are really good. I would have liked to see some more bounce options in their wedges.
Awesome content. These would replace my old Lazarus wedge set perfectly…
I've been using my Vokey SM6 clubs for years. I would love to put these wedges in the bag! :)
Gabe…you come across as a genuine guy!!
They do sale the packs. I have a 52, 56, and 60. Love them!
Ive got a vokey and the tw grind lob wedge, it looks like those would compete easily to get in the bag!

Thanks to you I bought a 58 degree and really like it so will replace others when needed.
Max 52 and 56 to go with my TS3 set
Wow these look really interesting. Almost remind me of the Taylormade MG1

Takomo made some forged wedges that were nice too, but I don't think they sell them currently. These are great for sure.
Maltby? Had a Maltby putter back in the day. Truly one of tge best putters of my life
Max 1.05 54 and 60 degree here along with my TS3 Irons.
PS: Damn you Gabe!
And damn you too, Stu!
@@nomadvehr827 I'm sorry? 😁
I have maltby iron,s maltby wedges sounds great 👍🏿
Do they make single length?
They do not
Nice vlog with interesting wedges. Think mine are 8 years old
I've been holding out for a review before pulling the trigger on these, can't wait to watch!
Glad you're covering Maltby but I'm pretty sure you are contributing to the backorder/stock issues! Lol
Sorry! 😀
Have a Maltby chipper…people always curious to try out when they see it…super club for me
I've been using the 54 for about a year. Best wedge I've ever owned.
I just replaced my Vokey SM7 Wedges 48 56 and 60 with Vokey SM10 Wedges 50 56 and 60. I don't care what anyone says they are the best.

You're winning!
They will shaft and grip them.
