Anybody currently bagging an obscure ancient club you pulled put of the garage?

Recommended Posts

Just recently put the Adams RPM Low Profile 5 Wood with the Prolaunch Blue 75S shaft back in the bag. I believe I bought this club at Wal-Mart for under $100 in 2007. Once upon a time it was as reliable as anything. It's filling a spot I'm struggling with at the moment. Probably the only really shallow fw I've ever agreed with.

_"Anybody currently bagging an obscure ancient club you pulled put of the garage?"_

 

Not currently but sounds intriguing...

 

FWIW from what I've seen and experienced holding on to a favorite club from generations back is often the case with 5woods for ams and 3wds for pros.

 

I believe the reason why is because in many cases might be something like Irons are indications of our lifestyle and how we see ourselves. Drivers are aspirations and often these woods are really just tools for a particular job so it's easier to keep one that works in-spite of the potentially small status loss or gain from playing something newer.

 

Just my 2cents

I recently put my old Cobra Trusty Rusty 53 (bent to 54) degree back in play. Pretty sure I got it in the mid/late 90s. I moved to FL from NJ and this wedge gets it done for me. The "Tri-Bounce" sole is awesome for a variety of lies.

Pulled out a Pole Kat 3-D+ 13 degree offset mini driver to try out at the range, and I'll be carrying it as an alternate driver, at least for a few weeks. Was hitting it well at the range. Pretty deep face, SP-700 titanium.

I'm not sure it's quite ancient or obscure... but I still game a 909 5 wood with a whippy regular flex titleist diamana... i hit nice high cuts that long soft... I'm always trying to replace it but it flat works

Nickent hybrid. Have messed around with some Hogan Apex II's from the late 80's / early 90's, but playing Mizuno 62's while waiting for my JPX 919 Forged & S18 Wedges...patience is a virtue? If so, developing some right now!

Recently put an older Mizuno Raw Black Ox 58* wedge in. Not ancient, but I think they were from around 2002 or '03?

The other thread about Bermuda grass / low bounce wedges has me thinking about trying my '69 W/S Dyna Power sand wedge, though.

Um, how do you forget your putter? It's the last club you have in your hands, unless you chipped in. Even then you will realize the very next hole unless you got lucky again. And if you went back and the group behind you denies finding it then I hope lightning strikes them down the next time they play.

If OP's 2007 Adams club is ancient, your wedges would probably be prehistoric/big bang era. :)

I put my old Ping ISI Nickel irons in the bag this week, immediately came out of the slump I was in. On the 1st hole, hit the 6-iron to 8 feet, and was like "Hello old friends".

I think they stopped making the Hogan Beryllium wedges in 1998 , The set I have were

brand new and mixed in with a rental set of Ping Eye 2 irons. Found them in @ 2005....
