When a golf club set consisted of a 1,3,4 wood (all made of wood) a set of 2-SW irons, all from the same mfgr and a putter from either Acushnet (Bullseye) or Ping (Anser).

It does not seem that long ago but maybe I was just dreaming this....

Man I remember when I was 15, working my butt off the summer of 1980 to buy my first set of real professional clubs, MacGregor MT persimmon woods and forged blade irons!

You mentioned the "Bullseye" and the "Anser", but I played the Wilson "8802" which was huge back then!

I just decided to start playing golf last week. I was able to find an old set of clubs my dad gave me several years ago. I think the brand is First Flight. 1-3-4 wood, 2 - PW. I like the irons but at his recommendation I've decided to ditch the woods. He gave my one of his titanium drivers and I proceeded to hit by far the best drive of my life. Even my miss-hits were going farther then my perfect drives with the real wood. Amazing how far club technology has come...

Now, does anyone still use these? My first set when I was 11 (2001) was persimmon with Northwestern blades and a Sam Snead 2 iron. Used them for 2 years until I saved enough to buy my own sightly newer set.

I remember when the SW wasn't part of a set. And there were Bullseye and Wilson putters. Ping didn't come along until recently.

      Dr. Raymond Prior and Block vs. Random Practice (The Spin Axis Podcast)

      By iacas · Posted

      It may not have been block practice, though, is one of the main points here. You may have been serving and from the same place, but you were likely trying to do slightly different things. It seems that would only be blocked practice if you were trying to hit the same exact ball hit to you to the same exact place in the far court. I'm not sure that's as random as if the ball that you're given to hit is at different places, too, but again…

      I played tennis in college. I thought block practice was great for serves because you were starting the point and  you could easily adjust where you wanted to place the ball based off the same motion. I equate those to tee balls. I despised block practice for groundstrokes once you reached a certain level and your fundamentals were good. To me, hitting a 100 crosscourt backhands in a row was silly because I would never do that in a match. I needed to randomize it by hitting some deep, some angled, all with different speeds and spins. I share that same thought about iron play. Because we seldom hit the same approach shots hole after hole, I prefer to practice irons randomly.
