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

Isn't that a Founders Club logo ?

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.

    • Day 10 (10 Jun 26) - Played in the midweek shootout at my home course - on aerated and sanded greens - day of trying to figure tempo to get the best roll on the greens.  Approach game was decently solid as was shots off the tee.  
    • Ok, I'm trying to find a feel to hit a consistent ball flight (irons).  My current predicament.  1. I try to do the arms down stuff better, with the club feeling like it is way behind me more. It's just a cluster of results. Most of the time, I can't get any speed on the swing. If I get my arms down faster, I just throw them out.  2. I focus all my attention on turning better. Pushing off with my left leg and getting my right side through better. On the DTL view, this doesn't produce anywhere close where the hands and club should be. The result is usually ball first contact, lower ball flight, more centered contact.  At this point, I am going with option 2. Stop thinking about what the hands do. Just make a shorter backswing, keep it wide, turn through. Somehow, the club head finds the ball. My focus is so much on just making sure I turn, it's like, "Oh, that contact was better.... Oh, that bell flight looks playable." If not, I will just be practicing my entire summer.       
    • Nope, they spent too much money. They are in over 28 million on the football roster and related NIL compensation at this point. Boosters associated with any Texas college football team has HUGE sway. The AD is between a rock and a hard place. They put a lot of money into Sorsby, at the chance of winning a NC this year. If you move on, you basically wasted a lot.  This is why Ohio State wants 3 QB's they feel can start. That is why the backups the past 5 years at some point transfer. Texas Tech has no backup near the quality of Sorsby. If they move on, they are screwed for 2026. 
    • Maybe there's something I still don't understand about the situation. Wouldn't Texas Tech do itself a favor to move on from Sorsby at this point?      
    • Day 281 6-10 Full swing, fast, getting low point ahead of "towel".  Working on flow during this seems to help.
