A hobby within a hobby. I love searching Goodwills, yard sales, flea markets, etc. looking for vintage clubs. Buy the ones that look promising, try them out at the range, keep the ones I like, and trade in the ones I don't at a local Play it Again sports. Lots of fun and quite the money maker. Lol Got $10 credit for a wedge I paid $2 bucks for. No dirty Scott Cameron putters yet. :-) This morning I found a whole set of irons 5-sw for $12. I took the 6 iron with me to the range and oh my I've never been more accurate and I was hitting it longer than my other clubs. I have steel shaft and these are graphite so maybe I found the shaft for me? I have tried graphite before and preferred steel in the past. The crazy thing is I tried researching the club online and can't find any info anywhere. I was wondering if anyone could help. On the sole of the clubs is the number of the iron in red and the word classics..... Cavity backs with the Answer TM. The W is in red with it's ends spreading across the other letters. P.T.G. In red in the corner. The shaft starts black and the top changes to red halfway down. Answer Master Torque HMG R flex. Answer on the grips too. Ok, I guess the company name was Answer. :-P Anyone ever hear of these clubs and where I can find more info? I can post some pics another day if anyone is interested. I know I have to give them another look at the range soon. The kicker for me is that they are right handed. Just when I thought I had things all figured out.

If you're spelling Answer correctly and the spelling isn't "Anser" then they are probably some cheap knockoffs of the Ping Anser line.

Yeah, they sure look like them. That's the problem I am having finding out more about them online. If you type in Answer golf or Answer irons Ping Anser comes up for every link. Lol. I hope to take them out for 9 holes today. I have been looking at a set of Pings at our Play it Again Sports. I had given my set of Cleveland Vas irons to a friend hoping he would caught the golf bug like me. Instead they have sat untouched in the same spot for months. I saw this set and thought I would just swap them out since he isn't using them and trade in the Clevelands toward the Pings. The Pings are orange dot though and i'm a black, and I just can't believe how good I hit the six iron at the range. Never tried graphite shafts before in my irons so maybe that is the difference. If I shoot lights out today I'm certainly going to surprise the guys Saturday for our big championship showing up with a right handed set of irons I got at Goodwill this week for $12 after playing left all year. :-P

Sweet. Thank you. Wonder what other clubs they made. I just got back from the range comparing my 5,6,and 7 irons and the Answers were head and shoulders above the rest. A good 15 yards longer and straighter. I must have found the perfect graphite shaft for me. I can't believe I'm changing things up again. Haha

Yup. Thus the name Answers. Very happy with these unless I find some Ping Eye 2s with graphite shafts. :) Playing my first round with them Saturday. Dialing in my distances will be the challenge now.

Iron play was strong today. Definite keepers. My buddy shot lights out 6 over par. Distant 2nd place for me with a 52. Struggled off the tee. Picked up a Tom Watson adamsgolf gap wedge for $3 at the clubhouse though. :-)

    • Day 76 - Pretty sore today, so I opted for putting over my Stack session. Primary focus was on starting line, as my putting has been pretty poor this year. 
    • Been a bit of delay in updates but I needed to come back east as my mom's health has taken a serious turn for the worse. In a 3 day span we learned she had a tumor to she has stage 4 cancer and stopped eating and drinking for the most part. She has had a rough 3 months but certainly didn't think we'd be at the point of setting up hospice for her. My mom was never into any sports really other than following the Red Sox because my dad was a big fan. She always cared about what we were involved in including asking about how golf went.  I have kept up with my 5 minutes of daily practice and will go to the gym here in NH tomorrow morning. Despite the somber nature of this trip my family has commented more than a few times about my weight loss so it's important to me to keep it up. I know my mom always wanted us happy in whatever we did so I'll continue with my fitness journey keeping that in mind. 
    • Day 109- Putting drills on a putting green for 20 minutes. 
    • Day 252: did a stack session. Did some slow rehearsal swings during breaks. 
    • Day 82: 3/18/24 Tried a Stack session but could not certify my warmup. Finished with indoor chips and putting.
