Wilson R20 Wedge

[La Costa Golfer]

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.

if in good condition it may be worth something, check ebay

A Wilson R20. depending upon the year it was made and the overall condition can be worth from about $30-100.

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
