What a cool thread! Lots of good info here.
I am a lurker here, came across this in a google search. I have a couple questions.
First, I found in a local thrift this single club, looks like brand new almost, and I can;t find ANYTHING about it on the net. After reading this, It may be a Brunswick club from the 80's, but I will let the experts inform me- it has the macgregor in a script, it says "Hilander" on it with some type of tiny picture logo on the edge, and the number "690" on it. If it is some kind of department store 80's starter set, well, I am out $1.
Second, I am interested in picking up a vintage Macgregor iron set, to play and somewhat collect. I like vintage golf, I actually play better with stuff older then 2000 or so, and I tend to switch out the stuff in my bag every 3 or 4 rounds. It keeps the game fun for me.
Which set, to people that have played or been around or tried many of these, would be "the set" to own for this purpose? it looks like, by this thread, the older MT or Jack signature clubs are popular, or maybe the Colokrome from way back. I like the wingback looks, but I also like quite a few of the beefy looking MT and VIP sets. I tend to favor heavier clubs, if that matters with this.
Any feedback appreciated!
