Oldest Club in the Bag?

Those Tourney PCBs have got to have a mileage and years on them. Is the White Hot really older?

That is an excellent putter. I put a Classic #5 in my wife's bag but she's never played it. Such a shame...

Those are the irons I remember Furyk playing with a lot of success if memory serves...

Other than that I still use my original Scotty Cameron Newport in gun blue finish. Many grip changes and it's due for a refinish. Only been benched recently as I'm using a TM spider tour my kids gave me.

 

The EI-70 is still a great shaft. I believe it can hold its own with any modern shaft...

The manganese bronze PINGs are so timeless that it's hard to pick a favorite. I really dug the Kushin for a long time and that connection to the head has always been my favorite. It's a shame they're so darn light...

I don't play quite as much as him, so it's not that bad.

A 20 year old Yes! Victoria II Putter. I’ve been with ole “ Vicky Deuce” longer than my wife. And she’s made me almost as much cash as the wife has cost me.

[jrobrojas]

Scotty Cameron Teryllium Del Mar Two, 1998

 

I remember this thing sitting in the proshop at our home course in High School. Could never make that kinda scratch, parents would never spring for something like that either...

 

So as an adult, I bought one! Look, feel, swag, I love it. It has seen better days, and the insert has a big ding. I dont know how I feel about t22s. Contemplating having mine refinished or fully refurbished.

 

Tei Del Mar & Older Napas are the best thing Scotty has ever made imo...

I miss Adams Golf, too. I bought a set of Blue woods and irons for my son just to keep the memory alive...

I've seen them with the single flange sightline (shaped like the B60) and with three flange sightlines with the straight trailing edge. Which one is yours?

[TheRoomWrecker]

my trusty isn't as old as some, but nothing can shift my Callaway X2hot pro 20-degree hybrid, the thing can't be beaten on any test! on and off the course

[Milosh11]

2002 Mizuno Fli-Hi 21* driving iron. Left-handed to boot. Tried many times, can't kick it out of the bag.

Two SM7 wedges from the Spring of 2018

The G700s didn't come out before that? I thought for sure they released in 2017. Still, good form for standing by WRX standards and keeping everything in the bag fresh...

I hardly ever see Fli-His listed in the bag, so it's refreshing to know that this one has been around and worked well for so long. It's a neat club...

I was looking at the X2 Hot woods before I settled on the Optiforces (which I got for a song). They have a great feel and sound...

The Mizuno 3-PW replaced a 2i-SW set pf TourModel IIIs that I've played since about 1990 a few months ago.

 

The SW only gets used in sand only so not noticeable. The 2i is off the tee only. No compelling reason to replace either of them.

 

As for how the TourModels and Mizunos compare... there is no comparison. Mizzy's are more forgiving, better feel out of the middle and have better turf interaction. Best $110 I ever spent.

can fix that with leadtape of course but i think it might be a good thing also, forces you to use a lighter grip..

My driver and irons date back to August 2017.

[jrobrojas]

14max -

 

3 sight line, I like the straight line trailing edge over that beveled edge.

 

Do you have a preference? Back in the day I remeber people being very hot and cold on the Tei stuff. How do you feel about the old Teryllium, and the new releases?

You're right. They did. But I've only had them since this summer.

[ProjectX]

Everything in my bag is relatively new, but I do have some oldies I will never get rid of that occassionally cycle their way back in. I have a Taylormade R9 Superdeep, a Tayloramde R9 4 wood and an Odyssey Metal X #7 that will get burried with me. My current SeeMore z3c and Cobra F9 Fairway woods have a chance to join that status as well.

As it turns out, no. PCB Tours are around 5 year older...2002?

At the moment, it is a Ram Tom Watson Scoring System 55*, which is from the mid 80s. If I decide to set the MP37s aside for a short time, my answer would be 1980 Golden Ram Tour Grinds.

 

I'm also going to play an 8813 the next couple rounds, but have no idea of its vintage...

LOL with folks like you and I that can be subjective as to which club can be the oldest in the bag that day. I guess for tomorrow for me it will be the Bullseye putter and the 80 Machogans
