I have a set of MacGregor XW Registered irons and woods with matching serial numbers in fair condition.  Can you give me any info on these such as manufacture date and value? 

Welcome to the Sand Trap. Most of us would do Google searches for this. I am not aware of a vintage golf club site, but there may be one.

Search these on eBay and often times it will lead you to a site that deals in vintage clubs.

I happen to know more than I should about MacGregor forged irons of the 1950's, 1960's and 1970's.

I probably own 18 sets of these vintage beauties.

If you have questions about this era of golf,  I may be able to help get some answers.

I have studied and still use as a reference the Jim Kaplan MacGregor and Wilson golf history catalogs.

Hello. I am a fan of anything and everything old that man has created. What can you tell me about this set of 2-10 Macgregor blades I just picked up?

I've been using a set of the Macgregor Silver Scot Tourney's, Rec No. 915 and love them. The shafts still have the silver labels on them, saying Tourney V. Would you know what level stiffness that equates to? I can't seem to find it anywhere.

 

Thanks

Hello all, I have the opportunity to buy a complete set of McGregor Tour Classic II irons. They come with a bag and trolley and thought they could make a good set to lend to visitors who come to see me and don't want to bother travelling with their clubs...Would it be a good Idea  to have them around ?

Seeing as how @GAA started this topic and hasn't visited the site since June 2019, I'm going to say these questions are probably not going to get answered.

I'm not sure if we have any other MacGregor experts here.

GAA here. Yes I have been away for about a year and I have seen a few Posts asking questions.

The shaft stiffness question, the Tourney V shaft is a stiff and those were probably second line department store sold clubs and not Pro lines, especially if they do not have a double row of XXX on the upper hosel.

Don't know anything about the Graham Marsh clubs.

The MT's look very much like the 1968-69 M/T's with heavy muscle back. RT2CA. 

The MT Tourney TR9 also is similar. 1969 step sole version with the heavy muscle back.

I probably have five sets of this vintage, most are Step Soles.

I am not familiar with the MacGregor Silver Scot Tourneys.

Do they look closer to the Tommy Armour 985's the Collector 709's or the Tourney Master 234's?

Definitely  prior to split sole

Thank you

Don

    • You all are right, its not that big of an issue, I'll leave it alone, especially after looking at that picture of Tigers beat up putter. But I also noticed the small circle worn on the sweet-spot where he hits it every time, I definitely don't have one of those. Thanks for the replies   
    • Committing to one brand of ball this year - Snell MTB Prime X, the 5 doz. pack. Like how they perform for me. At $18/doz., can live with cover scuffing. Iron regripping with GolfPrice MCC+4 Teams std. in red/navy. May be retiring Odyssey Dual Force after 30 yrs. Seems like I can't get it to the hole anymore. Kind of light and has lots of toe hang. My reg. group's hounding finally wore me down.    From Callaway preowned - trying out the Odyssey Tri-Hot 5K in double wide (less toe hang) and triple wide (face balanced). Both also noticeably heavier...we shall see.  
    • WOW, it looks like he has been hitting stones with that putter to put all of those nicks into it.  I can't see how a ball would cause many those dings.
    • I'm fighting a knee as well as a foot so I "Feel your pain".  Luckily for me the PT is helping at this time and I am hoping knee surgery is not imminent.  Best of luck to you.
    • I would guess putting grooves in it might make it non-conforming. I am not sure how stringent the USGA is on restoring golf clubs.
