I just went looking for it and sure enough the Maltby Playability rating is still rating clubs all the way out to the 2010 additions. It does not look like they have changed the ratings method but they have added a whole bunch of categories that I had not seen last time I had looked at it. They now include UGI for Ultra Game Improvement for example. That is not one I have seen before. It looks like they are trying to chop up the more traditional clubs differently as well. They have a Classic category and a Conventional category. All this is just for irons.
While I can surely see why they would want all these new categories i wonder if the rating methodology still works for all of the different irons that there are today, especially when you consider how many people are making shaft choices.
