Hi,

This is my first time posting as I'm looking for the help of someone who really knows their clubs! I've recently come into possession of a full set of 'Heritage' Golf Irons (3-SW, pics attached) and I can't find any information about them online. I did find information on the Macgregor Heritage range but nothing I can find looks even remotely like these.

Does anyone have any idea what they are and if they're worth anything?

Thanks in advance.

Don't know exactly what they are, but old golf clubs aren't generally worth much.

That's true, not really bothered about the value. They're almost impossible to play with and they're just cluttering the house up so I thought I'd try moving them on.

Do yourself a favor,see if a magnet sticks to the clubface. They look like zinc die cast heads.(N G) Check True Temper shaft imprint on bottom portion of shaft-- True Temper/ Temper True= commercial shaft.

Thanks for your reply. Just tried the magnet and it didn't seem to stick - not sure if that's a good thing? Haha. The label at the base of the shaft says 'True Temper', but it certainly looks like it's not the original.

I don't know where you get this from, but good stainless is non-magnetic. That's how they test steel at a scrap yard.

Yup.

A basic stainless steel has a 'ferritic' structure and is magnetic. ... However, the most common stainless steels are 'austenitic' - these have a higher chromium content and nickel is also added. It is the nickel which modifies the physical structure of the steel and makes it non-magnetic.

That said, my Miuras stick to magnets, as do my Edel wedges. (Those are the only two clubs I had on hand.)

You might donate to a local school.  Sometimes the kids want to try out for the team and don't  have clubs.

 The school could use them for loaners.

    • Day 11: did mirror work for a while. Worked on the same stuff. 
    • I'm not sure you're calculating the number of strokes you would need to give correctly. The way I figure it, a 6.9 index golfer playing from tees that are rated 70.8/126 would have a course handicap of 6. A 20-index golfer playing from tees that are rated 64/106 would have a course handicap of 11. Therefore, based on the example above, assuming this is the same golf course and these index & slope numbers are based on the different tees, you should only have to give 5 strokes (or one stroke on the five most difficult holes if match play) not 6. Regardless, I get your point...the average golfer has no understanding of how the system works and trying to explain it to people, who haven't bothered to read the documentation provided by either the USGA or the R&A, is hopeless. In any case, I think the WHS as it currently is, does the best job possible of leveling the playing field and I think most golfers (obviously, based on the back & forth on this thread, not all golfers) at least comprehend that.   
    • Day 115 12-5 Skills work tonight. Mostly just trying to be more aware of the shaft and where it's at. Hit foam golf balls. 
    • Day 25 (5 Dec 25) - total rain day, worked on tempo and distance control.  
    • Yes it's true in a large sample like a tournament a bunch of 20 handicaps shouldn't get 13 strokes more than you. One of them will have a day and win. But two on one, the 7 handicap is going to cover those 13 strokes the vast majority of the time. 20 handicaps are shit players. With super high variance and a very asymmetrical distribution of scores. Yes they shoot 85 every once in a while. But they shoot 110 way more often. A 7 handicap's equivalent is shooting 74 every once in a while but... 86 way more often?
