Just put an old set of Adams MB2s back into the bag. Always loved the look and feel. Blades are blades no matter how old they are.

Well today I snuck out early and played 5 holes since our course closed at 10:00 for Thanksgiving. Played my 54 Hogan Precision Irons with Hogan Special K Grind 51 and 54 wedges. LOL my putter for today a year unknown Otey Crisman "Billy Baloo" style hickory shafted. Played my Power Bilt Driver Macgregor Cloverleaf 2 wood and a new acquisition a Auld Classic 4 wood. Shot +2 for 5 holes which was not bad since I have not swung a club for 3 weeks now. I have been letting my back rest some in which I know you can relate to. I did walk those 5 holes though. Did not put the Mashie in because I already had 14 clubs and wanted to see how I would carry them in an real light old school nylon bag I picked up the other week.

I think we discussed this in The Classics one night--- Remember the Pedderson clubs? Kinda like custom PXGs etc back in the day---- They made it their "thing" and had it stamped on the back 17-4 Stainless. I think also back in those days Golfcraft made their irons out of 17-5 too

I dragged out my DCI 962 2-pw set a few weeks ago...i threw a few of them in the bag alongside my Apex CF16 Combo set. The DCIs just didn't do it for me at all, I tried to like them as I remembered them, but the Apex just performed and felt much better. Hitting the 2i off the tee was a nice "bring me back" moment, but the Apex 4i flew higher and further. Yes, my swing is different than when these were my only clubs, but time marches on!

I dropped my GBB in favor for the RFE driver which still has one of the hottest faces I ever hit. I prefer the "window" of the flight too vs the GBB. The Rogue feels hotter but when I did the demo in the spring, I wasn't sure how much I would be golfing in 2019 so wasn't buying anything.

I haven't gone real far back in time, but picked up a set of Nike VPs early this summer and played them the entire season. Then found a set of Cobra ACPs at my local golf store in great shape and for a good price recently. Making it a winter project and will be putting them to play this spring. I'll also be putting the BC+ driver back in the bag to make them feel at home. For whatever reason I love buying older used irons in great shape for cheap. I don't like the jacked up lofts on a lot of the newer sets so I seem to have a weird connection to the older sets.

Just bought a set of MP32s that will go into the bag for a while. Took them to Dick's tonight to get them regripped. Grabbed the 3i while I was waiting for the rep to finish with another customer and went over to the hitting bag. Yeah... buddy... thats nice. :)
