I like them and they have the lower muscle back but I'm getting older and going to midsize. They may be from UK but I've only seen one pic on Google image and it doesn't say the model

Ignore previous. I did not read full posting. (I thought the question was dealing with what kind of club it was. Peril of reading in car on smartphone (not while driving))

Founders Clubs have been around for years.

You probably will not see many players using them.

I recall a friend in Colorado used them, and that was back in 1998.

About Founders Club Golf:
Founded in 1991 by Gary Adams, Founders Club produces high performance metal drivers and fairway woods. The hallmark of Founders Club designs were precision “face progression”, perfect “bulge and roll”, and a “blind bore” hosel that together produce low spin rates, optimum launch angle and a penetrating ball flight for maximum distance. In 1996 Gary Adams sold his interest in the company to a Japanese sporting goods company, shortly thereafter departing from the company. A change in distribution strategy coupled with the emergence of Callaway as a market leader led to the closing of Founders Club in the late 1990's. In 2002 Paradise Golf Equipment and its management team bought Founders Club from Asics Corporation and re-launched Founders Club in 2003. The new Founders Club is holding true to the original pear shaped heads designed by Gary Adams, along with adhering to his concepts of producing clubs with low spin rates and optimum launch angles.

Thanks club rat

But I got these brand new in a long drive contest and can't find the model to sell them. Going to a midsize, these are great but a little harder to hit when you get a little older. So if they are that old I have a 2 year old set? First time to go to midsize I've been hitting blades since I was in Jr. High and haven't got to hit them yet, hurt my knee the day after I bought them. I bought some Callaway Fusions, I liked them when they came out but didn't want to spend almost a Grand and grab some barely used for a steal.

Hmm.... Not coming up with any creatures which look similar to your photo in my searches.

Are there "serial numbers" stamped on the other side of the hosel and is there anything on the sole which may identify the clubs?

Maybe check at Edwinwatts  or any golf discount store in your area.

I will give my buddy a ring who have been in the golf biz, see if he has a clue.

Good luck, Club Rat

Thanks and and tree aren't any serial numbers. They are as good of blade that compare s to some o f the best brads I've hit. I even sent a message to FC and didn't get a reply. They have DG S300 shafts and tour velvet grips with the F logo on the front. A lot of trouble for a fake. Good puzzle I guess.

      Hey, thanks for the feedback. I do lift weights but I’m also adding yoga or Pilates for mobility and flexibility to my routine.

      Day 18: 2026.01.20 Continuing work on arm raise during backswing. Starting to feel less weird, especially the slower I go. Looking like a busy week so might be the weekend before I can hit some balls.

      It’s possible the graphite shaft has a small internal crack or a delamination. Tapping it and hearing a vibrating sound is usually a sign the shaft isn’t behaving as it should. Since the store wasn’t helpful, consider taking it to a club fitter or a pro shop that can check the shaft flex and integrity. If it’s defective, you might be able to get a replacement from the manufacturer.

      Maintaining Trail Knee Flex in the Backswing

      By Mystique · Posted

      It’s interesting how much a 3D system changes your understanding. Observing top players in full detail and realizing the trail knee shouldn’t fully extend is a great example of why being open to new info is so important. I like your approach: not trying to be “right,” but trying to teach correctly based on actual evidence. Makes sense why golfers would benefit from this perspective.

      Golf Workouts

      I would say both are equally not the best for golf. Is it better than nothing, sure.  Golf is an athletic motion. Professional golfers are doing a comprehensive workout routine focusing on strength, power, flexibility, stability. They might include some yoga into the routine. I would put both of them in the recovery bin, not golf enhancement bin.  If you want to increase swing speed, core strength, longevity in golf and life, then lift heavy weights.
