I recently upgraded my irons to Mizuno MX-25's, so now I have 2 sets. My first and only newly purchased irons are now not being used, and I'm on the fence with whether I sell them, or hold onto them for when friends are over and need some clubs. The old set are Ram X2 Laser Irons (frequency matched) with Brunswick Precision Steel Regular Shafts. I have 3 - PW, but can only find 5 - PW. I also have a Tom Watson TW956 Flange Sand Wedge (56 degree with 10 degree rake). The SW has has the same shaft as the Ram irons. The irons were re-gripped 2 years ago (with the Griprite / Swingrite grips).

I loaded 11 pics of these irons onto Flickr - the link is below:

I would love some input as to what a neutral third party would estimate as their worth. This is needed if I decide to put them up for sale. Please have a look, and let me know.

Thanks in advance. Happy Hitting.

Without wanting to sound like a smart arse, I'd say that you'll get more value by taking them to the club and asking the pro to give the to a deserving young golfer on a budget. They are 20 years old.

There are so many good quality late model sets on ebay that go cheaply, that I doubt that you'll find a buyer.

Great idea! And you don't sound like a smart arse (IMO) unless a smart arse is one who gives good advice.

Smart Arse = Australian for Beer (had to do it, since I saw the two beer drinking Yuengling Animoticons). The Porter is a great brew!!

I understand completely what I have in terms of the clubs' age, technology, market pressures, etc.. I am going into this potential sale with eyes wide open, but there a few European (Netherland to specific) websites posting these exact same clubs for Euro 25 each, which is like $36, so there must be market somewhere for these fine clubs (how on earth they got to this price is beyond me, however).

I'm also a little nostalgic about these sticks, but I know better than to let emotions enter into the equation.

In all likelihood, they will be heading to eBay, buT I thought I'd tap into the wise resources at the Sand Trap to offer some decent opinions.

But, they are good looking clubs in pretty good shape, so I'm still looking for the right pot for these lids!

Happy Hitting.

Lefty...,

For shoots and grins, check out this website: http://www.ironfinder.com/?ad=0202

They're selling the same Ram irons for ~$30 each! Pics are lousy, but mine are probably in better shape.

More power to them if they get their price - I'd like a piece of that.

I have the Ram Laser Irons in about the same condition, I'd think those are only worth $75-$100. Maybe even less.

Do you want another set?

I was looking at $50 - $100 for the 5 - SW (and even the 3 and 4 if they can be found). It seems like a reasonable price for a good iron, with plenty of life left in them. I also have several Snake Eyes Fairway Woods and Hybrids that will be hitting the auction block soon. Out with the old, and in with the new.

    • Day 29 (9 Dec 25) - PW dink and rolls as well as low flighted chips.  Dink and rolls - set up with club head toe down/heel up to promote low flight, plenty of roll out.  Low flighted pitches - club flat on the ground to get ball up a Rick more and check more.   No more than 10yds total distance - focus on getting the ball to finish near (within 10’ dia circle) the target “pin”…

    • Only ever used ShipSticks and never had a problem. It's really nice because you can ship to anywhere not just courses.  No matter what you use, I take the extra care of the clubs and wrap them in something before putting them in your bag and into the shipping box.   
    • Practicing my putting after work. I put five balls on the carpet and a mug on the other side. Once I make 3 out of 5 I can stop. If I leave any short or they go to far and fall off the rug, I restart.  Focusing on speed and hitting my mark 3 inches in front of me. Trying to gain consistency and discipline in all aspects of my putting game.
