Hi, new to this forum. Very high handicap golfer looking to improve my game.  Currently using a set of irons I bought used about 10 years ago.  I went to research the clubs to see if I could learn enough about them to decide to reshaft, sell, keep or what to do with them.  Google searching has brought up no information on this set of irons and I was hoping you golf educated individuals could help me.

The head of the club says "Legend" by Palmer on the back of the club.  I can't find this set anywhere. The head is a stainless steel head. They have a Palmer logo graphite shaft.  The main issue I have had, is over the last couple of years I have head the head of the 3,7, and 8 irons all break off and multiple other shafts showing wear and dings and I'm worried I'm going to lose even more heads. So trying to decide between buying a new max G I set, or if getting this set re-shafted would be worth it ( if the clubs are only worth <$100, dont see point in spending more than that on just shafts).

Any insight would be greatly appreciated!!

Thanks

Ok thanks for the info.

So today I went to local golf store to try out some used and new clubs to find a full set of irons.  Picked up a 4-PW used set of Callaway Hawk Eye VTF irons with steel shaft for $225.  Couldn't find much info about them other than a few reviews.  Will take them to the driving range later tonight.  Finding these online with a wide range of prices, do you guys think I got a fair deal?  Can take them back within 30 days if I don't like them.

I was a Callaway guy for years I only switched to Ping in the last months only becasue I liked the way they played and need new clubs. Although I had never played that model I have friends that have owned or still do play those clubs and they have been very happy with them. I dont recall if they have the Uni-flex shaft in them or not that may be the only issue you have with them, that shaft is a love them or hate them relationship. IMO it was a bad move to go to that shaft, but my son likes them I hate them.

You have 30 days give your self a bit of time to get used to them. As far as the deal goes my sons X20 in really great condition where $200. Callaway has your model on the Pre Owned site for $212 on up to $348 so if your happy with the price and the clubs fit you well , you got a good deal and you are the one that matters.

Have fun Callaway is a great brand.

AP1's titleist very forgiving and the 710 can be had for a good price on line or a good resell shop.

    • Ok, I'm trying to find a feel to hit a consistent ball flight (irons).  My current predicament.  1. I try to do the arms down stuff better, with the club feeling like it is way behind me more. It's just a cluster of results. Most of the time, I can't get any speed on the swing. If I get my arms down faster, I just throw them out.  2. I focus all my attention on turning better. Pushing off with my left leg and getting my right side through better. On the DTL view, this doesn't produce anywhere close where the hands and club should be. The result is usually ball first contact, lower ball flight, more centered contact.  At this point, I am going with option 2. Stop thinking about what the hands do. Just make a shorter backswing, keep it wide, turn through. Somehow, the club head finds the ball. My focus is so much on just making sure I turn, it's like, "Oh, that contact was better.... Oh, that bell flight looks playable." If not, I will just be practicing my entire summer.       
    • Nope, they spent too much money. They are in over 28 million on the football roster and related NIL compensation at this point. Boosters associated with any Texas college football team has HUGE sway. The AD is between a rock and a hard place. They put a lot of money into Sorsby, at the chance of winning a NC this year. If you move on, you basically wasted a lot.  This is why Ohio State wants 3 QB's they feel can start. That is why the backups the past 5 years at some point transfer. Texas Tech has no backup near the quality of Sorsby. If they move on, they are screwed for 2026. 
    • Maybe there's something I still don't understand about the situation. Wouldn't Texas Tech do itself a favor to move on from Sorsby at this point?      
    • Day 281 6-10 Full swing, fast, getting low point ahead of "towel".  Working on flow during this seems to help.
