Ignore previous. I did not read full posting. (I thought the question was dealing with what kind of club it was. Peril of reading in car on smartphone (not while driving))

Founders Clubs have been around for years.

You probably will not see many players using them.

I recall a friend in Colorado used them, and that was back in 1998.

About Founders Club Golf:
Founded in 1991 by Gary Adams, Founders Club produces high performance metal drivers and fairway woods. The hallmark of Founders Club designs were precision “face progression”, perfect “bulge and roll”, and a “blind bore” hosel that together produce low spin rates, optimum launch angle and a penetrating ball flight for maximum distance. In 1996 Gary Adams sold his interest in the company to a Japanese sporting goods company, shortly thereafter departing from the company. A change in distribution strategy coupled with the emergence of Callaway as a market leader led to the closing of Founders Club in the late 1990's. In 2002 Paradise Golf Equipment and its management team bought Founders Club from Asics Corporation and re-launched Founders Club in 2003. The new Founders Club is holding true to the original pear shaped heads designed by Gary Adams, along with adhering to his concepts of producing clubs with low spin rates and optimum launch angles.

Thanks club rat

But I got these brand new in a long drive contest and can't find the model to sell them. Going to a midsize, these are great but a little harder to hit when you get a little older. So if they are that old I have a 2 year old set? First time to go to midsize I've been hitting blades since I was in Jr. High and haven't got to hit them yet, hurt my knee the day after I bought them. I bought some Callaway Fusions, I liked them when they came out but didn't want to spend almost a Grand and grab some barely used for a steal.

Hmm.... Not coming up with any creatures which look similar to your photo in my searches.

Are there "serial numbers" stamped on the other side of the hosel and is there anything on the sole which may identify the clubs?

Maybe check at Edwinwatts  or any golf discount store in your area.

I will give my buddy a ring who have been in the golf biz, see if he has a clue.

Good luck, Club Rat

Thanks and and tree aren't any serial numbers. They are as good of blade that compare s to some o f the best brads I've hit. I even sent a message to FC and didn't get a reply. They have DG S300 shafts and tour velvet grips with the F logo on the front. A lot of trouble for a fake. Good puzzle I guess.

      The Golf Swing Being Repeatable…

      By billchao ·

      My two cents? Don't. As a beginner that's interested in learning about the golf swing, you'll find yourself consuming a lot of information, most of which isn't even relevant to your own swing. You need to learn you can't think your way to a good golf swing. Focus on the one thing that you're working on and doing that on every swing, come what may. And remember, mishits happen.

      Day 6 (7 May 24) - More work in the backyard focused on tempo in addition to setup.  Worked with 6 and 7 irons hitting hard foam balls - used the old MacGregor irons to mix it up a little.

      No! lol. But they have to be in the right sequence to play mid-handicap golf or little better. Mostly. And even in that there is range/margin for error in the motions and positions that most normal humans can handle. It helps if you have a decent idea of how a golf club moves around the body like you would any other equipment sports (baseball and hockey might be the closest) After all, fairways are 40 yards wide. Don't overthink it. Be diligent in getting basics right. I will concede that it is harder than it sounds but it certainly is not exact angle/exact position/exact degree of bend/exact speed/exact facial expression, etc, every.... single.... time or the result is horrible death.

      Spark League at Severna Park Golf

      By Paloma ·

      Looking to play in the Severna Park Golf league and it got rained out the first three weeks. I know the course is being renovated so it is not in great shape but the location is easy for me and I would love to meet some other golfers in my area. Anyone here in Maryland Annapolis area?

      I like to look at the positives.  Overall you are fairly consistent down the center with most shots 20 yards or less off center.  On most fairways that should be in play.  Sure, you had some very short duds, but also if you look there is a good cluster in the 110-125 yard range.  Sure, we would all like to be longer, but knowing your typical shot is more important than trying to hit the 7-Iron 175 Yards.  Just take more club for longer shots and do not worry about it.  Your distances may increase as you improve over time so do not get caught up on that now.
