JRosado, the MMB irons are very good sellers and will remain in the line for 2008 and 2009 as it stands now.

This is my philosophy
Maltby Golf Club Design Philosophy
I use all the tools and knowledge that I have accumulated in my 40 years in the golf business coupled with excitement and enthusiasm to create golf club designs that play better.
I push the envelope in playability and design on many of my models. If I develop a unique design, it must have provable playability characteristics that will improve a targeted segment of golfers’ games; and in many cases, all types of golfers’ games.
If I develop a club to fit into a currently existing area of design that warrants a competitive product, then it must play better. Our testing must show that a majority of golfers preferred our design in looks and playability to our competitor’s design.
When it is time to update or change an existing Maltby club model because its lifecycle is over; the new model must be more playable, confirmed not only by its new design parameters but also by actual testing with golfers.

Thanks Ralph. Do you have any plans on stopping production of these irons? I know sometimes new designs come out and the old ones become obsolete but I love these irons and hope you never stop production of them. They could be a Maltby signature line or something like that. It would be a shame for such a beautiful iron to be lost!

JRosado, the MMB stays the same for next year. Sorry, no smaller head sizes are available.

Hey Ralph, do you have anything in the works for the MMB iron? Some comments I have recieved from players is that the head is too big. Is there any plan on coming in with a tour version with a smaller head? If not, is there a way to special order a smaller head size and maybe a black ion finish?

Kazza476, I have not done any MPF measurements for Kasco irons. However, since you asked, I have put them on the list to acquire and measure.

Ralph, Is it possible for you to give me an MPF rating for Kasco DNA 101 irons. These are a brand from Japan but Jim Mclean is on the design team (at least he was in 2003). I have just changed form these to your MMB heads on an NS1150GHtous shaft. I’d really like to compare the MPF of these heads. Thanks

Lou, to find the MPF listings go to the bottom of the web page and click on “index”. Scroll down to “MPF Listings For 2007” and click on it. It will come up but it is a PDF download at this time. In a month or so we should have every MPFlisting on the site itself for you to look up.

Can you provide (or tell me where on your site I can find) the column definitions on your MPF OEM list ?
