Who else plays old clubs? - Page 3

post #37 of 44

I had been using a set of '90 Hogan Apex blades which hit very nicely when you get them right. Just switched to a nice set of Miuras though and the difference is huge....

Currently gaming an old Wilson Deep Red driver.  I love it and have to plans to upgrade until I crack the face or break the shaft.

I have a set of hickory shafts irons,woods, and putter I take out for a few rounds. The certainly are not as long as the modern stuff.

 

But they are good for my swing. You need to be smooth get results. Lowest round. Par for nine holes from the whites. Old but they still work.

I had been playing with a set of Ping Eye 2 clubs from 1987.  I just recently switched to Ping i3+'s.  I'm very glad I switched, but really miss the Eye 2 sand wedge and 2-iron.  I still bring one of them sometimes.  That 2-iron is a laser beam off the tee.  It has a perfect ball flight and goes exactly where you aim it.  Overall I like my i3+'s better though.  The Eye 2's were lofted higher, but I still get more distance with the i3+'s at the equivalent lofted club.

A friend of mine is taking up the game, and I have been looking around for some irons for him for very little money.

 

I found these in a junk shop this weekend, and bought them for him. I managed to get them for what seemed like a fairly incredible price of $30 (with an old, beat-up Austad's putter of (I guess) 1970s vintage thrown in, too).

 

 

 

 

They are Tommy Armour Silver Scot 855s (3 iron - SW). A bit of internet research tells me that the yellow dot was allocated to sets with offset; and these are likely from 1996 or 1997 (or thereabouts).

 

Anyway, I couldn't resist taking the 5 iron and 7 iron with me to the range on Sunday afternoon. Fantastic clubs!

 

To be honest, I came very close indeed to giving my friend the Tour Edge Exotics XCG3s I'm currently gaming and hanging on to these Silver Scots for myself; but in the end I gave him the Silver Scots. Hopefully they will be of use to a beginner, once he's had a couple of lessons from the local pro and the chance to hit the range and the practice ground.

Yeah I use two older sets, a set of Wilson staff progressive blades from about 92, great clubs...... but am currently suffering a little bit of a shoulder tear problem so have gone back to my spalding executive xe's (hollowbacks) about 87 vintage.

 

The best thing about the spalding's is they are basically a set of what we would call today hybrids, still my favorite clubs.
