Was looking for a 1 iron to go with my 72 button backs and ran across what looks like a button back but without the button. Looks like it says j-100 but can't find no information anywhere.

Can you show more pics? Need all the club head to be seen.

I think the stamp reads 4-199

It is a custom shop buttonback. 1971-ish. Those alphanumeric stampings give it away, along with the lack of a button. I’ve had my eye on a custom 1 iron from the 73-75 line that lacks the removable weight port

Sounds like it would go good with my set then. Here are my button backs that I currently have in the bag.

Oohhh, those are pretty. I’ve been coveting a set of buttonbacks, among a few other Wilson staff models I’d eventually like to add to my collection

    • 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?
