 NEWARK,
Ohio — Providing the distance of woods
and the shorter-club length playability of
irons, The GolfWorks’ exceptional MXU
Utility Woods were a huge success in 2004,
providing exceptional control and great shots
for thousands of golfers and clubmakers. For
2005, the ‘Maltby Xtreme Utility’ (MXU)
line has expanded to include a new 20-degree
model for drives the ball farther, while still
retaining a higher trajectory than most fairway
woods, as well as new left-handed models in
24- and 28-degree options.
“Playability is the key to the entire line
of MXU Utility Woods, and we’ve received
dozens of testimonials from clubmakers and their
customers,
all saying the same thing — the MXU Utility
Wood has become their ‘go-to’ club
for mid-distance shots in easy and tough lies,” says
Mark McCormick, co-CEO of The GolfWorks. “The
MXU line has been a real success story for clubmakers
looking to fit their customers with extremely
playable clubs, and the new 20-degree model and
new left-hand models will greatly increase their
fitting options.”
The GolfWorks research and design team, led by
company founder Ralph Maltby and vice president
of technical services Britt Lindsey, explains
that the all-new 20-degree-lofted MXU head provides
more distance with the same, higher trajectory
for which the MXU Utility Woods are famous!
Using long-iron length shafts, MXU Utility Woods
feature an offset, closed face that keeps the
club face square at impact for straighter shots
and a higher 1.45-inch-tall face that reduces
a player’s tendency to pop the ball up
when hitting from fluffy lies. A thick, heavy
sole of 17-4 stainless steel lowers the MXU head’s
center of gravity and helps pick up the ball
up, sending it on an arcing trajectory. The rear
of the sole features soft, rounded edges to minimize
snagging on turf or digging into the sand from
fairway bunkers. The 24-degree model is designed
to replace 3- or 4-irons, finished to a length
of 39 inches to 39.5 inches, and is now available
in left-hand options. The 28-degree model is
designed for mid-length shot and also now available
in left-hand options.
