Talking Cult Clubs - What are your all time Favourites ???

[drvrwdge]

Cleveland 588 MB’s.

[davetmo]

Can I throw into the mix

Mizuno T-zoid Pro irons with the Brunswick Rifle shafts. Never had a better feeling iron, and fairly forgiving.

[platgof]

Callaway FT-5 driver lots of confidence, Rocketballz fairway woods and hybrids, took a long time to replace them, and I still ask myself why. Callaway Fusion irons, everyone is copying them now, even the lob wedge was good, my son still uses them. Ping Eye 2 Beryllium wedges, still a great wedge. Ping Craz E putter, I was amazing with this putter, and honorable mention to Kirk Curie putters as well, as it stayed in the bag the longest of them all. I had a Sonartec hybrid that was the best feeling of all the clubs I have ever had. It was amazing. It just could not go as far as a Rocketballz, nothing else could either.

Taylormade RAC LTs (1st generation)

905T with grafalloy blue

[dmael]

For me, #1 would be the TourEdge Exotics CB2 3-wood. I owned two of the 13* Strong 3-woods back when I was a younger and stronger player (I wore the first one out and bought the second one to replace it) and they held the 3-wood slot in my bag for several years, only to be replaced by a 15* Exotics CB5 3-wood, which held its place as my #1 “gamer” until the CBX fairways were introduced a couple of years ago. As many golf equipment aficionados know, the CBX Fairways were designed to be a modernized version of the CB2, with the exact same head profile and some added playability features built-in.

Second place In my book would be the TM R510TP driver (I still have one of these with a “real deal” Fujikura 757 Speeder shaft in it). However, that Adams 9015D is also a great call — I also have one of them that I re-shafted with an ACCRA FXx260 shaft a few years ago and it still gets taken out for use at least a couple times a year.

They seemed much harsher than I remember, I was playing them alongside my Apex CF16 Combo set with KBS. Tour 120 The DG S300 might be part of the difference, or the additional materials in the Apex vs the DCI that is just a pure chunk of metal with no damping.

[10&8]

Maybe not a classic or cult club (yet), but for me it’s the OG Callaway Epic SZ. Just an absolute bomber and still in my bag. Great sound at impact too.

[TeeBonZ]

Haven't seen them mentioned but I've been playing Nike SQ2 3 & 5 FW's since they came out.

Also, a shout out for Cally '07 X-Forged!

[Mr Smooth]

Another vote for rbz hybrid, specifically the 3 hybrid.

[simon1988]

I still play with a set of Callaway X-14 steelheads

[RyanBarathWRX]

The 962 B's are right up there for small cavity back too.

[bigalittlea]

Macgregor PCB Tours - managed to piece together a NOS set and I couldn't be more exicted. Will be my... 3rd set. Miura forged (supposedly near identical to the 301's) and spin like sandpaper.

[Silentbob6]

 

Still have mine!

[RyanBarathWRX]

Literally the exact same as the 301 head - as chosen from the Miura catalog but with different stamping.

[craz-e]

Favourite set of irons

Wilson Staff fg59

Always on the look out for another set

[Yuck]

Cally X forged ‘09, ping S55, Bridgestone J40 CB, WS FG 17 tour blade, MP14, MP 29, MP 62 Ram tour grind. Hogan Apex (from the 60’s & 70’s)

[sdandrea]

These. Getting ready to shaft them up and try to recapture some glory days fun.

 

[RyanBarathWRX]

Bringing this one back after Brian Gay's win using the ever popular Srixon Z745s.

 

The other set from Srixon that is WAY underrated are the i701 Tours - you could call them the precursor to Z745

 

[RH82]

Callaway Optiforce 440 Driver. Such an underrated driver. Never hit another one like it!

If we are talking cult clubs then has to be Sonartec fairway woods and hybrids!

Sonartec np-99. Easiest 3 wood to hit off the deck. Considering putting it back in the bag but will feel my super hybrid is pretty similar. 

[theothertwo]

Cleveland Hibore XL Tour

Adams Idea Pro Hybrids (A2 generation)

Adams Insight Fairways (BTY was king, but BUL was good too)

 

L4V X Speed and HiBore XL Tour were so good. 
 

As far as fairways, Mizuno F50 and Adams 4060. Those Adams tour models had such a large following. 
 

2009 TaylorMade Rescue TP is still my all time favorite hybrid. 
 

Taylormade 300 forged with the Lehman grinds and the original Nike Forged Pro Combos.

[jplroper]

Titleist 975d    best if a low loft and a steel x100 shaft

[golfday]

- Original Steelhead fairway wood

- Original Tightlies fairway wood

- Titleist PT fairway wood

- Original Cleveland 588 wedges

- Original Scotty TE3 - Santa Fe putter

- Ping ISI woods

- Ping i3 irons

- Hogan Apex Plus irons

- Hogan Forged Wedges - I don't think these were labeled with anything other than loft and bounce. They were making them around 2000

I have both the Srixon z545 irons and a Callaway big bertha alpha 816 3w in the bag. Both are very hard to replace and are as good as anything currently out there.

[GBBM]

For roughly the last ten years I was a dirty club ho and went thru countless sets including the JDM bug. Late this summer I constructed a gamer bag composed of the true standouts from that breadth of experience and finished the year really strong.
