not sure how old they are (shrug)  but i built a combo set of Titleist 690mb's and 716mb...   the 690mb irons i was able to slowly buy here n there, and the irons are basically slightly used or barely used..  the 2 iron i snagged looked brand new lol.....    the only reason i went with 716mb's for the 7-8-9 irons is because those in mint condition are hard to find, for older irons..     i dont ever feel like i am losing out on anything distance wise playing these...  

 

my normal playing set is Titleist 735cm irons and i think they are about 10 years old and still play very nice...  and like my other set, i dont think i am loosing out on anything with this set vs anything new....

All of my clubs are over 10 years old, with the exception of a Titleist 915 D3 driver i just bought (used of course).2004 Tommy Armour 845 C Silver Backs, used Vokey Wedges of unknown vintage 54 & 58, Ben hogan strong 3 wood- unknown. Taylor made Tour Cleek 16# at least 30 years old. Scotty Cameron flanged Bullseye  ( a gift) at least 20 years old.. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

    • My two cents? Don't. As a beginner that's interested in learning about the golf swing, you'll find yourself consuming a lot of information, most of which isn't even relevant to your own swing. You need to learn you can't think your way to a good golf swing. Focus on the one thing that you're working on and doing that on every swing, come what may. And remember, mishits happen.
    • Day 6 (7 May 24) - More work in the backyard focused on tempo in addition to setup.  Worked with 6 and 7 irons hitting hard foam balls - used the old MacGregor irons to mix it up a little.   
    • No! lol. But they have to be in the right sequence to play mid-handicap golf or little better. Mostly. And even in that there is range/margin for error in the motions and positions that most normal humans can handle. It helps if you have a decent idea of how a golf club moves around the body like you would any other equipment sports (baseball and hockey might be the closest) After all, fairways are 40 yards wide. Don't overthink it. Be diligent in getting basics right. I will concede that it is harder than it sounds but it certainly is not exact angle/exact position/exact degree of bend/exact speed/exact facial expression, etc, every.... single.... time or the result is horrible death. 
    • Looking to play in the Severna Park Golf league and it got rained out the first three weeks. I know the course is being renovated so it is not in great shape but the location is easy for me and I would love to meet some other golfers in my area. Anyone here in Maryland Annapolis area? 
    • I like to look at the positives.  Overall you are fairly consistent down the center with most shots 20 yards or less off center.  On most fairways that should be in play.  Sure, you had some very short duds, but also if you look there is a good cluster in the 110-125 yard range.  Sure, we would all like to be longer, but knowing your typical shot is more important than trying to hit the 7-Iron 175 Yards.  Just take more club for longer shots and do not worry about it.  Your distances may increase as you improve over time so do not get caught up on that now.
