Spalding Tour Edition Specs


Recommended Posts

Just bought a 2-9 set of 1985-87 Spalding Tour Edition irons. When I was looking to upgrade from my hand-me-down Power Bilt Levelume irons in 1987, I really wanted the Tour Editions. Ended up buying a set of Titleist Tour Models instead as the pro at the course I worked at was on staff and he did not carry Spalding. I can't find the specs and Ironfinder only has a few irons listed. I imagine they are similar to my Titleist with a 49* pw. Does anybody know the loft/lie specs? I'll contact Ironfinder as well.

I've them written down in one of my note books here somewhere, you might have to give me a day or two to find 'em .... I do have the head weight's on hand if you need them though.

There were two versions of the Tour Edition. Three if you count the "S22" version.

Great we have the lofts!

As far as the blades go there were the Tour Edition, Tour Edition Custom Crafted and the Tour Edition Custom Crafted S22, which were all forged. I've never took much notice of the cast Cavity back varieties...

I'll have to do some searching around and see if any of the forged Irons come up...I've always been a fan of Spalding gear.

 

Here's a set I just spotted. Postage costs from OZ might rule them out.

I would have grabbed them but I picked up a set of 3-sw Tour Editions last week.

Super20dan if you head over to iron finder they list quite a few Spalding models so it might show you what those are. I found the model of a complete set someone just gave me '63-'64 vintage, will try to post some pics within the next few days but they are pretty sweet with still original leather grips. Setup includes 1, 2 1/2, 3 1/2, & 4 1/2 woods, 2-PW Irons, and vintage bag with matching headcovers.

For what it's worth the Tour Editions all seem to come up at once on Ebay. Often you will not see any for weeks, they still command a relatively decent price. I have 3 sets all in rather average condition found locally which i've paid no more than $20.00 for...

 

Meanwhile these should make a Spalding fan's mouth water....

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Now I cant take credit for these photo's as they are taken off the web and I believe they are from a Japanese collection.

i did as suggested and went to ironfinder and was able to ID the thrify store top flites as 80-84 models. i promised i would stop buying iron sets as storage-is running tight for them .lol sure thats a common problem on here. these might be too too nice to pass up and it would be interesting to try something different for a change. i had forgotten all about ironfinder as a pic/info source

Recently rebuilt a set of Spalding Tour Edition Ltd, Cold Forged (cavity backs from about 1991). Lofts now are 3-21, 4-24, 5-28, 6-32, 7-36, 8-40, 9-44, PW-48. They have been bent multiple times over the years so not sure what the original lofts were.

         Loft.      Lie

2.       19.       59.5

3.       22.       60

4.       25.       60.5

5.       28.       61

6.       32.       61.5

7.       36.        62

8.       40.        62.5

9.       45.        63

P.       50.        64.5

S.       55.        65

 

of course one will have the lie adjusted to fit his swing. 

 

and they are awesome. 
so soft that when you hit the sweet spot within the diameter of a quarter, folk will comment the ball makes no sound off the club. They tell me the only sound is the club passing through the grass.
