I have come back to the game for the third (and what I'd like to consider the last) time. At this point in my life, I feel that I'd like to keep golf as a regular part of it and do so until the day I can't walk anymore.

Anyways, I am using my wife's grandfather's old clubs. They are in decent condition, but are definitely old. Real woods, a mixed bag of irons and a new putter that I just purchased.

For those folks that have played for a long time. How long do you suggest I play on these old clubs? Money is an issue right now and I was considering replacing them one at a time (starting with the driver or the PW). I also probably will only be able to get out every 3-4 weeks max...I have two lil ones. Thanks in advance.

What's in my bag:
and Spalding...Old clubs...probably from the 70's
Go Gators!

Use them till they snap in half, or until you feel like your skill has exceeded their capabilities. My grandpa was a single digit handicapper, and he used some ancient Wilson forged Irons for like, 20 years.

      My Swing (saevel25)

      By saevel25 ·

      So, the struggle right now with the driver is that I’m dipping down with the body, shallowing wrongly.  When I try to get my arms down, I end up not turning much at all. End up hitting the sweeping overdraws or if I dip with the body then I’ll hit massive pushes. I’m trying to turn better with the body and also get the arms down at the same time. Easier with the irons than it does the driver. also, here’s an image when you almost entirely missed the ball. 🤣🤣🤣

      Issue With Finger Aiming on Short Putts

      You misread. Knee height should be between ball height and standing. Trigonometry. If you are changing the length of your arm for each of them then the trial is pointless. No?

      I hear you and hence I did say empty threats. Meaning sternly worded signs but no person to person confrontations. The jerks won't care but it does help with the folks who still have an iota of conscience but just don't think it/forget, or get de-sensitized to a point where just like the jerks, they don't care either.

      Unfortunately in today's world often times "Transgressions" are overlooked to avoid a potentially violent confrontation.  Just think how many times you hear about road-rage because someone honked a horn at another motorist or someone gets shot over some minor issue.  It would be nice to see them kicked off the course but nobody wants to be the 1 out of a 1000 rangers that gets shot by some stupid jerk.
