I actually at this point in time only play 12 clubs. (I'm tossing around playing my Exotics clubs again or building Maltby's).

I honestly in the modern game could care less for either. These days 5-woods look too big to be a 5-wood. I prefer a 4-wood @WUTiger talked me into that a few years back.

Driving irons I haven't really tried on grass. I hit a few Srixon U85 in the sim and the dry data goes the same distance as my 20° CBX hybrid with a driving iron that is supposed to be easy to hit. 

I am intrigued by the Maltby KE4 FDI driving irons just released. Apparently they've got the center of gravity supposedly figured out. It's a damn toss up.

    • Cool.. the pre-shot expectation still applies. Just saying..
    • Meh I don’t care anymore. I’ll have a new hybrid soon. One that is younger, with technology not from almost a decade ago, and isn’t full of baggage from hitting bad shots.
    • The '2H" wrote back -  "Well, if you had an worthwhile pre-shot routine..."
    • I have that club and absolutely love it!
    • Have a 19° (moved to 20.5°) Titleist 915H. I just love the club. Beautiful feel off the sweetspot, high launch, soft landing. Versatile. In the future, with less overall speed I will replace my 4 and 5 irons with another hybrid, something around 26°.
