I've got two.  I've got my Nike VR TW v10 forged irons and I've also got some on the way!  They're another older set, Taylormade R9 TP Forged--they're a special release from Japan back in the day.  They look awesome to me.  Can't wait to play them.  If I hit them well, I may drop my gap wedge (sad because it's my hole-in-one club) and go 48-54-60 in the wedges (I think the PW in this set is 48*, but I'll check).  I'll have to retest my gapping.  I also thought about going after '09 Burner TP 3 and 4 irons to go with these clubs--they're also JDM limited release clubs.

2, maybe three.

 

My current set is the Callaway 2014 Apex MB.

My previous set, which I still have, is a set of Hogan Apex Edge Pros.

I think there's still a set of Hogan Apex PCs from the late 80s that I played as a kid somewhere in my parent's attic.  I hope so anyway.

Seems to be a recurring theme there, though I did play TaylorMade for a bit.

At home we have (mom, dad and me) +/- 5 sets put together.  My gamer is a set of TaylorMade RAC irons.  My previous set is a Dunlop rip on an Ernie Els set from the late 90's.  That has passed down to dad.  His old set is a Dunlop from 1986, which now sits as an emergency set at my folks place for whenever somebody drops by and needs it or if I visit and don't carry my own clubs.  Then, my mom has a half set (i forget the brand).  Over and above that we have a whole bunch of extra clubs that together would probably be enough to make a decent half to full set (i know of an SW, 1 iron, 6 iron and some woods).

What's in the bag

  • Taylor Made r5 dual Draw 9.5* (stiff)
  • Cobra Baffler 4H (stiff)
  • Taylor Made RAC OS 6-9,P,S (regular)
  • Golden Bear LD5.0 60* (regular)
  • Aidia Z-009 Putter
  • Inesis Soft 500 golf ball

I have multiple iron sets.  Some are legacies.  Most are either clubs I've used in the past or picked up at thrift stores or yard sales.  Here they are.

Callaway S2H2   5 thru SW

Orlimar Sf 302   4 thru PW

MacGregor PCB Tour   3 thru PW

Henning Aire-Link   5 thru SW

TaylorMade RAC HT   3 thru LW

Maltby TE Forged   3 thru GW

Maltby TU   4 thru GW

The list used to be longer but I gave the first set I assembled to a friend who is "thinking" about taking up the game and donated another (Square 2) to a kid's program at the local executive track.  

In der bag:
Cleveland Hi-Bore driver, Maltby 5 wood, Maltby hybrid, Maltby irons and wedges (23 to 50) Vokey 59/07, Cleveland Niblick (LH-42), and a Maltby mallet putter.                                                                                                                                                 "When the going gets tough...it's tough to get going."

Thought I answered this thread before. Bullet point says no. If so this will be a n up date

I have three sets right now. My main gamers are Tour Edge Geomax 2s. (5-Lw) they are an old set, but play just as well for me as any of the new stuff I have tried. They are comfortable.

My next set is made up of Tour Edge Bazooka Ironwoods.  (2-LW) I played this setup many years ago. I had a 9.5 driver, these 12 irons, and a putter in the bag. I could hit the ball much farther back then. I still play this "iron bag" at least a  couple times a month. The 9.5 driver has been replaced with Tour Edge 12*,  2 wood. Golfers who don't know me usually give me their best  "wth" look when they see this make up. 

 I wouldn't hesitate to recommend theses old Bazooka Ironwoods to any new golfer, if they could find a decent set. At the very least pick up a 6I or 7i and give one a try. Not sure, but these might have been one of the original hybrid clubs to hit the market 20+/- years ago. . 

My third set are brand new Cobra King F7 one length irons. (5-PW) won these in a raffle a while back. Just haven't bother to use them that much. Hit a few 5, and 9 irons. I hit my old 5i Geomax 2 farther than the Cobra 5i. It's a little longer. Nice clubs. Look great. They are still boxed up. Just not sure what to do with them. 

In My Bag:
A whole bunch of Tour Edge golf stuff...... :beer:

Just two. My current set of Cobra F9 and my previous set of Hogan Edge. I recently threw out my first full set of irons - Palmer Classic that I bought in 1972. I tend to play a set for a long time. Almost 20 years on the Palmers and almost 30 on the Hogans. At that rate, I figure that the Cobras will far outlast me. People like me must be equipment manufacturers' worst nightmare! 😉
