No new acquistions...?

Ah, different seller. That makes a little more sense. 

 

Interesting lofts. A 58.5* SW seems unusual for the time.

 

It is quite a big loft but there's no telling who may have tweaked them over the years.

 

 

I've found a couple of 58 degree vintage sand wedges:

 

One was a Slazenger Plus International from 1972, also in the set were a 48 degree 9 iron and 53,5 degree PW.

 

The other was a Dunlop Maxfli by Roberto de Vicenzo from 1973, 47 degree 9 iron and 51 degree PW.

 

 

It's not all about the score.

@Jiggered @LeftyMac that Slazenger head looks VERY similar (though not absolutely 100% identical) to a photo that Mike Clayton sent me of an iron that is essentially the commercial version of the Slazenger irons that Trevino got from Sandy F in Sydney. The font is identical, it’s just the logo that’s missing.

You all may have seen this before, Trevino talking about the clubs he got from Sandy, and how he ruined them. Great story!

Oh, my....😍

 

I think you just hit the motherlode.

Ya was a good day.  Interesting enough I picked up a set of m85’s (1-2-3).....2 weeks ago...rough shape but they can be brought back....also another m85 driver a week prior.  Sometimes when it rains it pours.  🙂

Just this morning someone posted a copy from Flea Bay of someone selling a LFF for $1400. That thing is rougher than a night in the county jail. But some of the experts claim the prices of the LFF are rising so great find

I shared it on Facebook persimmon golf society..   The seller is in this golfwrx thread.....note that  he isn’t selling it for $1400.....The auction bidding is determining the value.  It’s all original. We will see where it lands

It's still the best looking original condition LFF I've ever seen. Considering the scarcity of original Jumbo's, I'm not so sure you'd even want to have that club refinished. I'm honestly a bit surprised you're parting with it @deejaid, I was starstruck when you posted it a few weeks ago. Best of luck on the bidding wars!

Bought these for my son yesterday in essentially new condition but not sure what model they are.  Evidently belonged to a pro.  I think Mizuno does golf porn better than just about anyone.

Is there a slight concave shape to the muscle?  If so, I would think they might be MP-68 instead of the MP-33 they appear similar to....

I always bought it to flip, just didn’t think it would be this quickly...

 

I sold off a number of iron sets recently and it felt good to make some space.  I bought the LFF, hit it once, and into storage it went, it should go to someone that really loves Mac woods.

 

But what really made me decide to sell now is the drought we are having here.   It is forecasted to be another terrible fire season in California.   We were evacuated last year for a week.  We pack my wife’s car and our minivan with whatever we can and go.  Last year the was no room for any of my clubs.  I grabbed the clubs I was refinishing for other people but left all mine behind.   
 

You have to live minimally here or you risk losing it all.  I figured I should start liquidating in advance.

I picked up a set of 1961 MacGregor Tourney irons from eBay. They have some Avon grips that feel like they are ribbed. The grips are in great shape, but smell like the clubs were in a basement for a decade or two. I tried cleaning them by scrubbing them with a brush using soap and water, but the smell is still bad. I'd love to keep the grips...any suggestions on getting rid of the odor?

Ping G430 HL 10.5*

Wilson Staff Dyna Power 5 wood
Ping 410 7 wood
XXIO 10 5 Hybrid, Tour Exotics 6 Hybrid
Wilson Staff D9 forged 7-GW

Wilson Staff 56*

Wilson Staff 60*

Ping Anser 2 2021 34" 

Like Edberg's forehand, my swing is held together with a paperclip and a rubber band.

Interesting that they have no model number on them and no serial numbers.  Look closer to a 33 than a 68 to me.

Yep they look like 33s to me too or they could be un stamped 14s too----
