Here's my bag as of 5 minutes ago. As you can see, I have covers for EVERYTHING as even my handful of irons are hollow Cleveland Launcher HiBores that require covers.

 

Here's the breakdown of my Frankenstein set:2W - TaylorMade SLDR Mini Driver @ 12*3W - 2005 Cleveland Launcher Steel @ 15*5W - 2005 Cleveland Launcher Steel @ 19*7W - 2008/2009 Cleveland Launcher @ 22* (this is my favorite club)9W - Adams RPM Redline Low Profile @ 25* (another great fairway wood; currently sporting a #7 headcover)9W/10W - MG Golf Black Steel @ 28* (The black #9 headcover is correct for this club, but at this loft I consider it more of a 10 wood; if I like the Bang Storm #11 fairway wood @ 31* I just purchased, it will replace this club)7 Rescue - Vintage persimmon Cobra Baffler @ 27* or 28* (I bought this club for $4.99 at Value Village and restored it; it has an original ladies flex steel shaft; if I like the new vintage Baffler #9 (@ 30* to 34*) I just bought, it will replace this club. I can't find any info on what the 'official' loft is for this new club, so I'll have to figure it out myself once it arrives later this week)4 Iron - Cleveland Launcher HB @ 20* (this is my 'cheaters club' that takes the count to 15; but I need something that goes low to get out from under trees; everything else in my bag goes too high)8, 9, P, D, S - Cleveland Launcher HB irons and wedges @ 34.5*, 39*, 44*, 49*, 54.5*, respectively. (For some reason, Cleveland calls their 'Gap' wedge a 'Dual' wedge, hence the "D" on the headcover)Chipper - Ancient Confidence 7 iron cavity-back head with a chopped ladies flex Fujikura Vista Pro shaft; I built this club for my wife, but she never used it, so I auditioned it as my chipper, and it won. Awesome Frankenstein scoring club!Putter - Odyssey Stroke Labs #9 @ 34 inches

(There's also a Tour Striker practice 7 iron in there)

So, that's what's in my bag! Other than the irons and the putter, every other club was purchased at Value Village for less than $13 or from eBay for less than $35. I also have a nice collection of vintage persimmon Gintys that spend time in my bag. I'll post some pictures of them another time. I'll also post additional pictures of the clubs themselves without the headcovers."Old School" and low-budget FTW!

Pics of Persimmon baffler please!

Will do once the sun comes up and I can take some photos outside near my snow-covered lawn. On it! As I mentioned, I have the #7 now, and a #9 is arriving on Friday. That new one is sweet looking, trust me!

I do have an old pic related from back when I was refinishing my persimmon Baffler last summer. I'll post more photos later - enjoy.

Very nice. Kudos for doing your own refinishing work.

You're a better ( and younger) man than me if you carry that bag around a course.

Those Cleveland Launchers from the 2000’s are still solid fairways! Cleveland makes solid no-frills equipment that performs. Nice bag... Hit’em well!
