Clubs you just won't let out of the bag

[trackster]

I am probably in the line for some new everything haha.  5 plus year old driver, 15+ year old irons, 75+ year old putter (yes you read that right my putter is that old).  But I just can't think of getting rid of the clubs I have right now.  Do you guys have any clubs that are staying with you forever?  I will eventually get new clubs, but I think I am going to wait till I have money for a custom fitting.  Right now playing with a putter that is 55 years older than I am will do.

I have a 59 degree Solus wedge I'll never get rid of.  It's my go-to club for literally everything 90 yards and in (used to hit it farther, but for some reason I cant now).  I dont know if it's just that I'm very familiar with it, or if it's a great club?  Either way I dont really care haha.

As of now, the only truly "safe" club in the bag is my Scotty Fastback with the jumbo grip on it. Not for consistency reasons, it's about the only putter I can stand looking at these days.

[Goonsidious]

56* dunlop "flag attack" wedge. Had it for such a long time.. was my first independent purchase and i love it. Don't see it leaving my bag anytime soon. Still reliable as heck.

I actually have a 20 degree Zebra 5 wood that I hit better than any club I have ever used/owned.  The thing seemingly weighs as much as 2 of my MP-32 blades lol - feels like a brick.

It got so haggard that I had to sand it down to the bone and re-paint it.  I used it as a driver up until 3 seasons ago...People would bust my chops when they would see me using it as a driver, but I can hit it 230-240 from a tee/driver stance (I hit it 200-220 off the fairway in the middle of my stance).

Won't take it out of my golf bag because I am so confident with it...even though it is super out-dated/ugly.

Really like my Ping G10 hybrids. I'm thinking I'm going to get a 23 or 24* hybrid to replace my 4 iron and when I do I'll probably just get a 20 or 21* to match

[Jimbo Slice]

Im getting the feeling your talking about older clubs, but....... My new Burner 2.0 15° fairway 3 wood, it's starting to feel like I would never replace it. I already have plans to replace all the clubs in my bag with better ones, but the 3 wood will be around for awhile, probably till it breaks.

I wonder how long the New 2010 and newer clubs will last. Will I be able to keep my 3 wood for 20 years or will club head break down eventually. I figure most irons will last along time, but what about the newer drivers and fairway woods?

I have a 31* snakeeyes hybrid club that I will always keep in my bag. Ive had it in the bag for like 13 years now. I'm spot on with it from any shot from 150-165. I can draw/fade it and know where it will land within 10ft. It will be a sad day if that club ever breaks.

I'm a club wh0re, always having to repress the urge to get something new, but I have a 20 yr old Big Bertha Warbird 3-wood and a 15 yr old Ping Anser 4 putter that for some reason I don't feel the need to replace. The Warbird makes a beautiful 'ting!' on contact, not like the 'crack!' that modern metal woods make.

[The Pro Newbie]

A Wilson True Temper 3 iron, yes it's a blade iron from the 70's. I can hit it straight, fade, draw, and prefer it off the fairway more than a hybrid.

I've had my Titleist DCI Oversize irons since 1998 that I purchased with $$ saved from caddying from the previous summer. 15 year later I've had them re-gripped multiple times and just can't seem to get away from them!

In the same boat with the Anser 4.

In the past I got a Bettinardi and then a White Hot, handing down the Anser to my wife and then son, but each time after playing a few rounds with them I took the Anser back and gave them the new sticks. It just feels so right when I hold it.

I still owe you a drink dude...

Over the past ten years, I've changed my driver a couple of times and my wedges once, but I don't see my Adams A2OS 3+4 hybrids ever leaving my bag. So easy to hit well.

[sean_miller]

I rotate club setups, but the most common ones in the bag are:

Mizuno MP600 driver

Blades of some kind 3-P or 2, 4-P

2009 Cleveland Launcher 3-wood

Mizuno Pro wedges. Tweaked over the past 15 years to produce 20 yard gaps with a controlled swing 53(120 yards), 57 (100), and 60 (80)

Odyssey WH#7 - a gift in 2001 and it spent the next 8 years in my wife's golf bag.

I let it out of my bag,  but I'm thinking of putting it back in.......  anyone still carry the Callaway Hickory Stick?

I have a buddy that had one... it makes its way in and out of his bag quite often.  I love the look of it.
