The one club you'd never sell for sentimental reasons

Not just a club, buy my dad's whole bag. He passed well before his time at only 64 in 2007. I am tinkering with the idea of pulling the heads from his irons and making some sort of wall rack (think coat hooks on a board) to display them on. Plus shafts can be condensed pretty easily. House and garage are getting a little crowed these days. Might pull my TA1 heads and do the same.

My putter, had it sent in for a COA as well.

 

First "really expensive" putter I ever bought which was last year. Was still in the plastic. Original grip and all. Being a massive McIlroy fan, this one they'll bury me with.

 

This is also when he used to be a good putter, lol... Should have signed with Titleist! Or at least a 13 club deal with Taylormade.

I have a Dynacraft Avatar Evolution driver that I've had since around 2010 or so that is probably the best club I've ever owned of any kind period. I used it all of 2014 when I had my best year on course (20 straight rounds in the 70's and low index of 3.1). That thing just found fairway after fairway. I'll never get rid of it for two reasons: 1. It's a component club so it's not worth jack squat for trade in value and even if I sold it to someone who knew what it was I'd still not get anything for it. And 2. It's got sentimental value now. It was looking a little haggard so I sent it in to Continental and they gave it a paint job and I had the new release of the UST ProForce V2 High Launch put in (the red one) to replace the original High Launch (gold and black). I really don't play it anymore because around 2015-2016 really began to notice it start to lag behind distance wise to new releases so I moved on but it'll always be a favorite.

Have posted this before but my Epic Subzero...i believe i was the first amateur lefty in the world to own the club . So it's pretty special to me

 

Wasn't your driver originally suppose to be used for some commercial shoots with some other prominent professional lefty before he had to reschedule?

 

Yep! It was slated for a well known lefty Callaway staffer who actually had to re-schedule due to hernia surgery. I'm not sure i mentioned to you but i was actually booted off the trip for a bit due to being a lefty, and then re-invited due to this.

 

Not only do i own the initial Subzero (Rod owns the original Epic "non" SZ) but i also hit the blacked out , blank face prototype the first night. I believe that was the first lefty Epic ever created

Large Marge 3-wood I assembled in the 90's with a Leland stiff graphite shaft. That thing was just money every time I hit it. Just retired it to my wife's bag a couple years ago. Would gladly still game it if not for the RBZ 3 HL that replaced it.

My first venture into club building, I purchased a stock Nike T40 tour 3 wood. My first reshaft included installing the infamous Pro lite S shaft, cut to my desired length, hot melted the head, little custom detailing, plus my initials under the Nike grip. I played it for 3 or so years before the club ho in me struck & convinced me to sell it for the next greatest 3 wood on the market. I always enjoyed the muted sound/feel, almost like a purely stuck forged iron. Years passed, and I always scanned the Bay looking for another one I might like, w/ little success. Well, one day last Spring, I was looking at used clubs in my local Play it Again Sports, and was stunned when there in the rack was my actual Nike tour 3 wood. Same shaft, same pro lite, same custom detailing, & after peeling back the end of the grip, my initials. Couldn't believe the condition, almost like it was when I sold it. Call it Karma, blind luck, or whatever. $40 later it was back home where it belonged, never to be sold again. I'm currently gaming a Cally Rogue, but once in awhile put the ole Nike Tour back in the bag for old time sake. I won't make that mistake again.

Of all the clubs I've gone through since I started back golfing in 1989 there is one club I promised myself I'd never sell because it was my first real store bought putter. An original Ping Anser that I had countless years of success with. Everything else is fare game for sale or trade...

 

Bought a Ping Anser 3 putter in 1990, first one I bought and it will stay with me forever. Another one is a Slighter Seattle putter custom made 50th birthday gift from my wife and son.
