Does anyone know of a resource I can look up the specs on a vintage club I have? Or know of the specs? I have a Wilson R20 wedge inherited from my father. Have no idea of the loft or bounce.

Thanks.

I am sure you already thought of this but you could simply bring it to a golf shop with a club making dept. and have them measure it for you.

I didn't want them to laugh at it and try to sell me clubs.

I am sorry but screw them! Your question is valid and it also serves a very important purpose. You like the specs and are curious about it.

I used to feel slightly inferior around golf store employees / pro shop employees, but then when I found out how much they generally earn I actually feel a little sorry for them. They are like food service workers and many of them don't know enough to make them any better than anyone else. I have blatently been told incorrect information from multiple of those "better than you" folks. Like UST doesn't make a V2 shaft that fits a ping g5 hybrid. Ummmm.... okay bro.

You guys are absolutely correct about these so called 'professionals'. They generally don't know beans...and will try to steer you based upon an all so much more commission differential between products.

More than anything is how the ignorant workers will try to dimmish the value of the club and try to get me to buy something like a Nike TW wedge which I have no interest in.

BTW...the R20 was made in the mid70s and in great shape. Shaft is nice and clean. Face and sole very good. Also...I even have and been playing a Wilson 8802. Not a remake or reproduction...but one that my Dad had from the late 70/early 80s. I still swear it is a great putter that even Scotty Cameron is trying to reproduce

      My Swing (saevel25)

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Still working on the backswing a bit. Hand still gets away from the body, out towards the ball, and at A2 the club wants to roll over and get flat at A3. It's just very difficult to shallow from that position like I want. Which makes my downswing work impossible.  Backswing I have been playing around with the left leg straightening to start the backswing. It's like, a slight shove of the hips right with the left leg. Then just keep the flex in the right knee as I turn into it. I kind of like it. I never had a good swing trigger. It helps keep my left knee extended.  Yea, definitely feeling the hand path is traveling down the feet line, and straight up. A little bit of wrist rotation, and a lot more hinge sooner in the right wrist and elbow. I am trying to get the feeling that the arm hinging up then is the cause for the right shoulder to retract to finish the backswing. Club feels much more vertical at A3. I am trying to have my wrist fully hinged by then.  Feel the club and arms stop at A3.5 (my A4). If my arm collapses late, then I turn into that and I am pretty much screwed. The club and arms kind of have a floaty feeling, where they are just suspended in air for a bit, then drop.  Downswing I have been trying to think of a good visual for this mentally. I like the idea of my hands taking a wide arc to my right pocket, or I am taking the back of the hosel and trying to hit the ground behind my right foot.    Left knee stuff, just sooner.
