Okay okay, I’ve been injured so I apologize for not getting the sticks out and following through. I’ll be rocking what is basically a high school dream set. The 3 wood is actually one I’ve used intermittently from like 2009 to this year. And I have such vivid memories of absolutely drooling over the R9 supertri working in the golf shop in high school.

Final setup after some testing. Fresh grips on the bennys brought back some great memories.

The bag is very additive to the overall anesthetic

Got my bag all set. Probably need to swap a new grip onto the 5w but am ready to go otherwise.
Super excited about all of it, but there’s something really exciting about playing my great grandfather’s putter.

I’ve only hit the irons so far…hope to hit the long stuff before Sunday, if not, be prepared for some fireworks! The putter is my brothers first ‘new club’ he ever got in 1982ish, my birth year. Looking forward to Sunday fellas!

Working on my WITB for tomorrow and have most clubs solidly in the ‘retro’ category. Does anyone know when this wedge was made? I got it used around 2005-6 so it might not qualify. Cleveland DIADIC 588 tour action wedge.

Was listening to the Nest Pod today, and I believe @Cody dropped out he’s going to be traveling through Grand Rapids this weekend. Just wanted to tag him in and let him know there’s an opportunity to pack an old set and join us out there

I get in at 11. Believe that is past tee times. But would love to swing by and have a beer

We should be coming off 18 right around 1230 - 1. Would love to have you out if it fits your schedule. No specific plan on the post round bevvies yet but we can put the word out when decisions are made. We’ll have to make a little bit of a scene somewhere to hand out this dope trophy

I’m going to declare this a retro set but welcome the discussion with the group.

Driver - Taylormade burner 420
5W - offbrand Orlimar trimetal
3-PW - Wilson FG 51s
SW - Wilson Dyna Power Staff Model
Putter - 1985 Ping Anser (not pictured as my father still uses it and I can only borrow it for Sunday).

Newest club is the driver ~2002
