Hello to everyone on the forum!

My name is Bernard, golfer from Belgium, and I am trying to buy a set of Spalding Tour Edition custom crafted (blades , with bird on ball on the back) - that was my first set as a beginner (not easy).


Despite putting a lot of time looking up the net, the only offers I can see are for individual clubs (on ebay, ironfinder, vintage-golf-clubs.com), but not for whole sets...

Could one of you tell me how to proceed? Are there specialized sites/forums?

Thanks a lot for your help!

Bernard

So I need you as an insider to get me into this thing ;-)

Well Bernard in just a few days you'll be the proud owner (already are!) of the probably LAST set of AS NEW T.E.'s around. I hope you have the best ball striking experience with these. You truly know what you want and deserve these sticks! Just as soon as we figure out where to send em" ( :)! Good luck and thanks!

ps- you WILL be staring at these for a couple days and probably won't want to hit them! Eventually you will and not regret it one bit!

I am not an expert but I was once in contact with some guy who was selling tour editions heads at 5 USD a piece. They were a bit used, but he was selling the complete set, which is a big advantage, and almost a must if you're looking for a buyer. So I would say : use them for your own! I have a set, and love them

Picked them up on eBay uk. Had been watching them and there were no bids. I missed the end of the auction, but they came around again at an even lower price!!! He started them at £25, but dropped them to £20!!!!!! I live in Australia but get clubs posted to a uk address, then deal with the postage from there. It works out a lot cheaper, but can take a while to get the clubs down under. Looking forward to having a hit with these, as I did have a set many years ago. This now saves me having to put shafts in the brand new ones I have. (back in the shoe box for now)

I have a set of these fantastic forged blades. Developed and tweaked by the likes of Greg Norman, Johnny Miller, and Craig Stadler in the 80's. Put them on the shelf today and they would easily sell for $700 - $900. A gem of a set.

or are you referring to a "special" set?

Actually, I was referring to the fact that if these clubs were brand new this year, they would be on the market in that price range. If you look at the forged irons in most tour player's bags (Tiger, Rory, etc) you will see clubs that look a lot like these. I don't know what they cost back when they were new, but they could command a high price if introduced today.

(Mine? I bought mine from an old guy at a garage sale. Practically new. $25 bucks, 3-PW.)

      Of course there's not a simple or knowable answer here. But the whole Caitlin Clark phenomenon is a nice example IMO. Suddenly there was wall to wall media coverage and national attention and... the women's tournament got similar ratings to the men's and much higher ratings than the men in the final four. With every indication that there will be some portion of the uptick that remains going forward. And there's the whole element that Sue Bird brought up. That basketball needed a pretty enough white superstar guard. One who looks like the "cute little white girls" that describes most of the soccer USWNT that's been able to achieve much higher popularity than any version of women's basketball, which is dominated by black players and none of any race who could be described as little... I do think women's sports are in a good place to start taking off more though. It's really only in the coming 5-10 years that the majority of girls will start to come of age with post Title IX grandmothers (as in their grandmothers were allowed to be serious athletes). I don't follow men's or women's basketball much, but in golf for sure the women's tour has gotten much deeper over the past 20 years and only looks to keep going in that direction. I've heard the same about women's basketball. And the patriarchal attitudes that socialized girls out of sports and everyone out of women's sports fandom aren't gone but have def diminished.

      I have nothing to add other than I freaking love her swing and I think she's hot as hell and some of my golfing buddies disagree so I fought them

      I’m not sure I agree. It’s just what the majority find more entertaining. Most people prefer women’s gymnastics over men in the Olympics. How much hype is there with the men’s compared to the women’s? I bet you can rattle off several big names in women’s gymnastics and only a handful of men. Women’s tennis …same thing. And sure enough, their purses are the same. However, WNBA, awful…LPGA, not near as much interest than PGA. Don’t think it’s really that complicated IMO.
