A few months back i happened to inherit an iron set. I wasn't able to find much information on them and thought they were something of no value originally. The clubs are numbered only 333 sets were made. After doing a little bit of research i found that the person i had inherited them from won them as a prize for a golf tournament while in the middle east.on a business trip. I haven't been too successful at finding much information on them other then they originally were valued at 10,500+ dollars. Each club is fitted with diamonds and small rubies on the club head. They are also engraved and numbered. The clubs have all matching club heads, velvet lined box and have never been used. Each club is mint still in the plastic wrapping on the grips and club heads. They definitely have a wild look to them nothing i have seen in the likes of golf. If anyone has any information or a lead to possibly sell these i would greatly appreciate it. I will post detailed pictures in a little bit when i get back home tonight of the clubs. Thanks everyone for your help.

Very cool @kkozyk88 .  I don't have any info to help you.  I would suggest trying to track down the maker.

I suppose you could always try painting them...

Would anyone put them into play? Probably not.

Japan does tend to produce a lot of status symbol golf equipment and these seem to be right up there with the tackiest. I dare say you could also buy a set of platinum nut crackers encrusted with diamonds, but at the end of the day they still serve the same purpose.

As for their actual integrity as golf clubs? Well, there's an old saying: "you can't polish a turd, but you sure can sprinkle glitter on it"

Those are wild looking.  If I were you I'd be looking for a buyer ASAP.  I mean hell they're too ugly to even put on display, all due respect.

Try to find some Japanese golf forums, Muira forums, etc and nail down your market.  Then post some high quality pics.

    • My flop shots are 6-7° down (AoA). Does that answer it? 😄  The longer answer is… You have to be able to do both shots.
    • I hope you don't mind me raising this one from the dead. I got shortgamechef's video access thing for a few months in 2024. I watched his yip fix videos (the general gist is similar to the first video above, but with a lot more detail) and it made a lot of sense. I was working on it in my backyard off a mat for a while and my yippy thing was mostly gone. Aside from anything else, the flop shot using that technique is so easy and controllable. But I got onto a golf course for the first time of the year and found myself by the green on a downslope with the ball sitting down a little in the rough and I was, not to put too fine a point on it, f***ed. Shallow is all well and good from a good flat lie and I understand it, but you can't make that your be all and end all. I still don't know if it's a good idea to use steep all the time or just when you need to. I have a hard enough time with one technique, let alone too.  Just got a pitching skillest lesson with Erik and unless I misunderstood things some, he wants me a bit steeper. @iacas - where do you fall on the steep vs shallow argument and how do you vary it according to need?
