MacGregor MT Tourney Irons

[resnor]

Picked up 3-PW, no 5 iron, at Salvation Army today, paid $15. Will post some pics later. 4 iron shaft is a little crooked, and the grips are all pretty bad. Also grabbed a sweet Wilson Staff Tour special grind sand wedge.

Cool find --- Where the heck have you been lately??? Good to see you posting again

[resnor]

Haha!

 

Mostly just lurking. I find that going into this section is bad for my spending habits. When I went to buy those clubs the cashier was like $3 a club. I said, "You want me to pay $30 for these?". Woman behind me says, "That's a great deal!". I quickly remarked that it was not a great deal when you factor in the $60+ I'll have to spend to get decent grips for them. Then I said I'd pay $1.50 a club.

 

I went and hit that Staff sand wedge today... Really nice!

that JP is worth the entire set of MTs, IMHO.

Resnor-

 

The MacGregor MTs are from 1968. Not bad for 50.

 

JP Wedges first appeared in 1980, and were named for Joe Phillips, who was Wilsons Tour Rep. Your Wilson Staff (JP) II 55 Deg SW is 1986.

 

According to the catalog, the first JP models in 1980 were RH only.

 

Very Nice!

Thanks for the info, Rex!

Thanks for the info, Rex!

 

Resnor-

 

You're Welcome.

 

Upon further review... Your "MT" Sand Iron is from 1971.

 

The mill cuts < MT > are very similar to the Penna Wedge. MacGregor also did the '71 VIP Model with these mill cuts

 

Alhough the MacGregor catalog says this block <"MT"> style Sand Iron was offered in a LH model, I've never seen one with these mill cuts.

The info you guys have on these clubs is amazing

 

You guys need to get hooked up to machines that could download all your info so it isn't lost to future generations.

How many do you want-- I got dozens of them every conceivable off set and bounce--- I had a bunch of them to begin with and then I think it was a couple of summers ago I found 18 of them in one haul no joke---

That's why we don't see JP wedge very often...... :smilie_wilson:

Went back today and found the 2 iron and the 5 iron! Set is complete. Now to find some woods...

That's fantastic and some real luck too. Few things are as irritating and frustrating as a complete set of irons with one of the middle clubs missing, but unfortunately it is often a reality when dealing with thrifts. It's especially bad knowing that it's probably because of the stores themselves like in this case. I see it all the time at my local places. Your looking at an incomplete set in a bin and have to wonder if the middle irons aren't in another bin in the back room somewhere. I've asked but always get the "Nope, that's everything." answer. What cha' gonna do? Keep looking I guess.

 

Mmmmm.... I'm rambling again. Glad to hear you completed the set!

Anyone know what flex this is?
