I did a web search and I think “BeCu” stands for “Beryllium Copper” and references the material the club is made from.  Looking at pictures most appear rather old looking and are from many different manufacturers.  Could not locate Great White ( kept getting info on sharks)

Thanks--that is exactly what I found--nothing !!--These were made by Pat Simmons--the bottom markings say Great White--the shafts are graphite labelled Tiger Shark--I found tons of pictures of the chrome clubs but not a mention or pictures of the Berylium Copper clubs.

I was wondering the same thing.

My bag is an ever-changing combination of clubs. 

A mix I am forever tinkering with.

Found this on an obscure site called TheSandTrap.com 😁. Same manufacturer.

Well to answer the question outrageous is my opinion--I should have said way too much--I did a trade for a nice set of TM burner 2's--full set---bag driver/3 and 5 wood. I had to quit playing 5 years ago (shoulder)---I love the game---have been building and repairing clubs for 20 + years--played the chrome sharks back in the 80's---never new Pat Simmons made the copper variety. Have not hit these. To me they are wall hangers in someones collection.

    • Day 52: simulator day. Played Old Head and shot an “80,” which was probably more like a 78 in a non-simulator. Then worked on irons for 15 minutes, and may have found a good feel.
    • Day 14: 2026.01.16 Some swings late in the day to confine trying to embed the hip rotation I'm working on. 
    • I don't know what to tell you. You can't test wedges with range balls, and you have a LOT more info to gather before you can begin to really even test anything else, either.
    • Day 27 - 2026-01-16 Played 18 with some of the usual "too many voices" going on when I'm working on swing stuff. Fun to get out in great bay area winter weather.
    • I know one recent college grad who's trying the same thing.  This guy was a Division III All-American, went on to play one year at Division I LSU, and is not working hard.  He won the Gulf States Open, a pro event, and made it to the second stage of the Korn Ferry Tour School late in the fall.  And didn't make the cut to get to the final stage.  I won't talk about swing or play stuff, but I believe there are a couple of things that are essential.  Obviously, talent, and drive, or work ethic.   I can't tell you how to do it, but you HAVE to get through it.  Golf is going to be your life, and it takes lots of work. Two more things that are really critical.  You'll need the facility to be able to practice.  My young friend stayed in Baton Rouge, as a past player on the team he can still use the LSU practice facilities.  And money.  Its unlikely you'll be able to work a full-time job and practice the way you will need to.  You'll probably need backing, from a parent, from a consortium of friends or club members., something to support you. Good luck, its not an easy path, but anything is possible.  Another young man from our area, Mike Brennan, just won for the first time on the "big" PGA Tour.
