I have searched every kind of search you can imagine and I still can't find anything on this club. I have looked for the past few days for any information on this and I have still come up empty. The words on the club say Yamaha 4. H-204. 829606. Pure or sure sight. Hybrid Super. Anyone heard of this/know anything about it?

Just a run-of-the-mill old Yamaha 4-wood. Probably not worth more than a few bucks.

I'm assuming it is worth max $10. Is it weird not being able to find information on old clubs or is this a normal thing?

I found two very close versions of this. Is this maybe a prototype of those? Maybe a customized version?

and Yamaha X300 Compression Carbon Composite Driver. Those look very similar this.

Problem is, craigslist is Full of clubs like those, maybe not the exact club, but there's 1000's for sale, and they have been for sale, in 99% of the ad's for about a year. Then again, who knows, you may get lucky and find someone who's looking for just that club.

I'm not looking to sell it. I'm looking for any information at all about the club.

I haven't even been able to even find a picture of this club.

It happens, probably a very limited production run. I have a set of Wilson Sabres that I have run searches on multiple times over the years and have never found anything other than my own postings. They're not worth squat but I thought I could at least find the lofts but...nada.

It's an extraordinarily rare club. Only made one of it. Back in July of 1986 deep in the jungle of Belize. The club was soon shipped off to Uzbekistan. It has since made it's way to you. Thousands of people would strive for it....I'll give you six bucks for it.

Phew this is a normal thing. This was driving me a bit nutty. [quote name="RJH999" url="/t/76760/what-is-this-club#post_1045574"]It's an extraordinarily rare club. Only made one of it.

I had seen older Yahama FWs (actually with wooden heads), but the Sure Sight is a new one on me. I didn't know Yamaha golf survived long enough to get into hybrids.

Focus, connect and follow through!

    • I know one recent college grad who's trying the same thing.  This guy was a Division III All-American, went on to play one year at Division I LSU, and is not working hard.  He won the Gulf States Open, a pro event, and made it to the second stage of the Korn Ferry Tour School late in the fall.  And didn't make the cut to get to the final stage.  I won't talk about swing or play stuff, but I believe there are a couple of things that are essential.  Obviously, talent, and drive, or work ethic.   I can't tell you how to do it, but you HAVE to get through it.  Golf is going to be your life, and it takes lots of work. Two more things that are really critical.  You'll need the facility to be able to practice.  My young friend stayed in Baton Rouge, as a past player on the team he can still use the LSU practice facilities.  And money.  Its unlikely you'll be able to work a full-time job and practice the way you will need to.  You'll probably need backing, from a parent, from a consortium of friends or club members., something to support you. Good luck, its not an easy path, but anything is possible.  Another young man from our area, Mike Brennan, just won for the first time on the "big" PGA Tour.    
    • No one in the world is as smart as Phil thinks he is.
    • Get more comfortable with being uncomfortable. If you don’t like practicing then give up now. You don’t have the passion to become a pro. Unless that mentality changes you won’t do well under stressful situations.    Call the PGA Tour and ask. They probably have resources available.

    • Thanks man, sometimes it’s hard to improve bc when I’m not feeling comfortable I don’t like practicing bc I get frustrated. Any advice?
