Whats your oldest club in the bag?

Posted by: user516308 | Thu 9th Jan 2014 09:06 | Last Reply

I'm only 3yrs into this great game and 2yrs at my club and I have already come across many players who constantly tinker with changing their clubs, either complete bag changes or singular clubs.

My oldest club is my putter, the 1 club I have never changed since I began, a trusty Ping G5i Tessa, so 3yrs for me.

What's the oldest club in your bag?

Taylormade R510 TP is currently in the bag, and is by a long long way the oldest club in my bag !

I've owned it for many years, but it only recently got a place back in the bag, after I sold my newer drivers. Currently deciding if it stays there, or if my new 3deep fairway can take over completely.

An Old 1 iron, Ben sayers i think, i used to use it all the time before i got a driver which was about 8 years ago.So i know its probably abvout 10-15 years old prob more actually. Doesnt get much use now other than some punch shots where it comes in really handy!

Although I have used 3 sets of irons since starting in 1975/6, my latest ones are quite new. I also rarely change my fairway woods, and have never had rescue clubs, making my putter the oldest club in the bag. It's not even anything special - I believe it was £29 and is called "one time". It is shaped like an odyssey 2 ball, but with lines instead of the two balls. Probably 10 years old now, and only been re-gripped once, at which stage I took the opportunity to get it cut down as it was too long for someone as short as me! It has served me well, although I do have to threaten to go back to the previous (and more expensive) one at least once each year!

My driver dates from about 2006, can't be sure bought it second hand off e-bay from a guy who had used it for a week or so and claimed 'it didn't work'... Got it re-shafted a few years ago with an Aldila DVS 60 shaft and it's brilliant.

Having said that a guy across the road gave me a Acushnet Bullseye putter the other day, the old brass job, probably about 25 years old. No idea if I'll ever use it though. Stamped as an FL5MC, which I believe is a flange putter, 35" long, medium lie with a cord grip (missing). Probably worth, ooh, £5.

I have a Ping Slazenger Kushin putter from the 1960's. The first Ping putters to come over from the USA were sent over just as Putter heads and had shafts and grips fitted by Slazenger in the UK. To be honest its not in the bag though - I collect putters.

my TM Rescue mid has got to be 10 years old easily, and my putter is also a 2006 model, but my oldest club was a ping i3 3 wood was older than all of them until the shaft snapped mid swing a couple of months ago.
