I have in my possession a set of irons, (3 to 10), H&B; Powerbilt Century 1984, which are a limited edition set to commemorate the centenary of Hillerich & Bradsby. They are 1 of 1000 made. They have 0627/1000 stamped on the hossle of each iron. I have played with them, but very rarely so they are in very good condition. I do not use them anymore. Could anyone give me a ball park figure as to what these clubs are worth, and any information on them please. Thank you in advance.

Powerbilt has a pretty good name in the early 80's so if in good shape they probably have a little value. Best place to look is ended auctions on eBay. You may have to go back into some history but I am sure a few are there. There are a crowd of golfers who still like to get their hands on the older equipment. Without seeing a picture if you want a guess I would say $150-250.

They are only worth what someone will pay for them. Looking at prices online can be misleading because just because someone is asking a certain price does not mean they will get it. It also may lead to disapointment if you cannot find someone who will pay what you want for them.

Your best bet would be to put them on Ebay and see what you can get.  I looked around a bit and I think 150 is probably pretty accuate maybe more if they are in mint condition but you would most likely need to find a collector to get that price because there are a lot of great iron sets you can get for around $200.00 that are newer and more playable IMO. You could also try the marketplace on TST since it is full of avid players and knowledgeable buyers who would be willing to pay fair price for a classic set of clubs. Good luck.

Thank you mchepp and thank you CanuckAaron. Your posts are very much appreciated. I reside in Manchester in the UK, so I'm not sure if me advertising them on the marketplace on TST will be viable. I think I will just put them on EBay at a starting price of 99p. I'm not sure about putting a reserve on. What do you think? Thank you both once again for your posts.

      Favorite Las Vegas Course

      By Maroon88 ·

      I've played Bali Hai, Bear's Best and Painted Desert. I enjoyed Bali Hai the most--course was in great shape, friendly staff and got paired in a great group. Bear's Best greens were very fast, didn't hold the ball well (I normally have enough spin to stop the ball after 1-2 hops).  The sand was different on many holes. Some were even dark sand (recreation of holes from Hawaii). Unfortunately I was single and paired with a local "member" who only played the front 9.  We were stuck behind a slow 4-some who wouldn't let me through even when the local left. Painted Desert was decent, just a bit far from the Strip where we were staying.

      Day 106 - Worked on chipping/pitching. Focus was feeling the club fall to the ground as my body rotated through.

      Honestly, unless there's something about that rough there that makes it abnormally penal or a lost ball likely, this might be the play. I don't know how the mystrategy cone works, but per LSW, you don't use every shot for your shot zones. In that scatter plot, you have no balls in the bunker, and 1 in the penalty area. The median outcome seems to be a 50 yard pitch. Even if you aren't great from 50 yards, you're better off there than in a fairway bunker or the penalty area on the right of the fairway. It could also be a strategy you keep in your back pocket if you need to make up ground. Maybe this is a higher average score with driver, but better chance at a birdie. Maybe you are hitting your driver well and feel comfortable with letting one rip.  I get not wanting to wait and not wanting to endanger people on the tee, but in a tournament, I think I value playing for score more than waiting. I don't value that over hurting people, but you can always yell fore 😆 Only thing I would say is I'm not sure whether that cone is the best representation of the strategy (see my comment above about LSW's shot zones). To me, it looks like a 4 iron where you're aiming closer to the bunker might be the play. You have a lot of shots out to the right and only a few to the left. Obviously, I don't know where you are aiming (and this is a limitation of MyStrategy), but it seems like most of your 4 iron shots are right. You have 2 in the bunker but aiming a bit closer to the bunker won't bring more of your shots into the bunker. It does bring a few away from the penalty area on the right.  This could also depend on how severe the penalties are for missing the green. Do you need to be closer to avoid issues around the green?  It's not a bad strategy to hit 6 iron off the tee, be in the fairway, and have 150ish in. I'm probably overthinking this.

      Day 283: Putted on my mat for a while watching an NLU video. Worked on keeping my head still primarily, and then making sure my bead is okay.
