Hi guys, wondering if anyone has any idea on Howson carbon steel blades. Saw a set on eBay for no money so I bought them there and then. Now I’m trying to find anything about them and failing miserably. Never seen another set, probably won’t again. Fitted with R300U shafts and heads marked TOUR with a golf flag logo (don’t think they’re forged ). Any help greatly appreciated.

All steel has carbon in it. The amount differs from grade to grade, amongst other additives.

Howson Golf Clubs are Great!
Hmm... maybe I should qualify that a bit. 

Howson Golf Clubs have GREAT Names!

Actual Howson Golf Club Names:

  • The Attacker
  • The Enforcer
  • The Assassin 
  • The Hippo.... (record scratch)

All of them up to that last one sounded like a 1980's Chuck Norris Movie title.

My bag is an ever-changing combination of clubs. 

A mix I am forever tinkering with.

I've got a set of those.I bought them for 25 pounds and refurbished them to sell on But....Took them up the range and couldn't believe how easy and nice they are to use.I've hit the hundred yards flagpole quite a few times.I've played 3 rounds of golf with them and hit 2 par 3 pins .I've just ordered some graphite iron shafts for them.They also are very forgiving. My other sets include,starting with the best for me are;Mizuno mp37,Ben Hogan Apex Grind,Mizuno ms3,Wilson Staff fg43,Slazenger Seve Ballesteros signature irons,Ram Tour Grind custom nickle,.These Howson are going to be my Number one Gamers.Regards David

    • Hello all.  I'm about to be 57 yrs old, started playing when I was 16, and have quit and restarted the game more times than I can count.  I had started playing a weekly round with a friend, and finally made the jump to Senior A shafted Tour Edge clubs.  Instantly gained 10 yds with an easier swing (why didn't I make that jump sooner???).  Glad to be a part of the group. Cheers all,
    • I think I like this hole.  It is a clear "Risk-Reward" choice.  Since most of the shots in your cone cleared the bunkers I would say they are a minor risk and not a big issue.  Playing the aggressive line may give you 70ish yards in from what looks to be playable rough while conservative play is 120ish from fairway.  I know you said 70 vs 120 is minor for you but how does the approach angle in impact your results?  I figure both strategies are playing for Birdie since holing out from either is mostly luck. Looking at your proximity hole I think it says @ 50 feet when hitting from the fairway from 100-150 and 40 feet if hitting 50-100 from the rough.  Neither of those is an easy birdie putt.   I like the approach angle from the rough between the bunkers & the adjacent tees over the angle from @ 120 in the fairway but I really do not like the idea of hitting onto the adjacent tee boxes and that may impact my confidence with making the shot.  Also, too far left may be a worse approach angle then from the fairway short of the bunkers. For me this may come down to how confident do I feel when I reach that tee box.  If I am stroking it well off the tee leading up to the hole I would try for over the bunkers and the better angle in but if I am struggling that day I would likely opt for the fairway to take more bad stuff out of play.
