Prompted by the MacGregor history thread, I thought this could be fun - though it may be a nightmare for club ho's with a LONG history. I've been playing for 57 years (15+ year hiatus from early 00's to 2017), my history has been:

  • Drivers & FWs: MacGregor DX > TM Burner Bubble > TM RBZ Black > Callaway Rogue
  • Irons: MacGregor DX > Wilson Staff RM Midsize > Mizuno JPX900 Forged
  • Hybrid (3h only beginning 2018): Callaway XR > Mizuno CLK
  • Putters: Acushnet Bullseye > Odyssey (model? - blade w black insert) > Evnroll ER2 > Ping Tyne4 (very brief) > Evnroll ER5B
  • Balls: Titleist (for 40+ years, all urethane tour balls) > Snell MTB > MaxFli Tour (maybe)

Clearly I stick with my choices for a LONG time...

  • Titleist TSR2 11° HZRDUS Red CB 50 6.0 w Lamkin UTx Midsize
  • Titleist TSR2 16.5º HZRDUS Red 60 CB 6.0 & TSR2 21º HZRDUS Black 4G 70 6.0 w Lamkin UTx Midsize
  • Mizuno JPX923 HMP 4-GW, T22 54.12WS, T22 58.04DC w Lamkin ST+2 Hybrid Midsize

I can’t possibly do this. All I can say is my journey started with Ram Bob Rosburg driver and three wood, a 3/5/7/9 iron of who knows what brand, no idea of the putter I started with, then my first set I got was at HS graduation. Golfsmith woods 1/3/5, and Dunlop Diamond Max irons. After that it’s all a blur….

Interesting subject.  Started late in life in 1985.  Will give it a try and never played anything with the Nike brand on it.  Bought a pair of their golf shoes and one of their shirts way back when and both fell apart.  Felt rest of their golf stuff was junk also.

Mine would be a nightmare to remember all of them, what with all the club hoing that I used to do.

I can go brand though.  When I started playing golf in the late '90s, I was all Titleist.  My 1st real set of irons were Titleist DCI 981s  Then, in around 2005, I discovered Mizuno and there was no looking back.  Once you play Mizunos, it kind of spoils you for playing any other brand, although I have dabbled with pretty much every brand that there is.

This sounds fun. So, before April 2020, I had not had my own clubs since about 2010. I was in high school and super focused on baseball, plus I hit a growth spurt, so I had a long hiatus where I didn’t touch a golf club. 
 

My first set of junior clubs was an all blue Wilson box set. After that I got a hand me down set from a cousin/uncle that was Ping Zing irons 3-SW, Cobra Baffler Hybrid, a Titleist 980F 3 wood and some sort of Mizuno blade putter (Anser shape). The set didn’t have a driver, and I was too tall for the junior driver, so I exclusively hit 3 wood off the tee. 
 

I used that mix match set until about 2010 once baseball took over. Once my baseball career was done and COVID hit, golf courses were the only thing that was open. I searched all over the web for a full set of clubs under $250 and finally settled on clubs from Callaway Pre-Owned:

Driver: Titleist 983K

3 Wood: Titleist 909F3

Irons: Titleist DCI 762

Wedges: Vokey 200 Series, Vokey SM5 Lob Wedge

Putter: Odyssey White Hot #1

I was not working at the time and was finishing up graduate school. I told myself I would save up and buy new clubs once I got better and had taken a few lessons.

After going to the range a lot, taking lessons, and playing weekly, I saved up to do a fitting and buy my own clubs. I ended up being fit for and got these clubs (I didn’t buy them all at the same time):

Driver: Callaway Mavrik Sub Zero

3 Wood: Callaway Mavrik

3 Hybrid: Callaway Mavrik Pro

Irons: 4-PW Titleist T200

Wedges: Mizuno T20

I kept my putter until my wife bought me one for my birthday: Odyssey Toulon Las Vegas H7 neck. 

I also decided to get a new lob wedge and went for the Ping Glide after playing an early morning round in the fall and not being able to keep the ball from releasing on the green. 

Finally, I just made an iron change and purchased Miura CB-301 in 7-PW. I wanted more control and feel in my short irons, but wanted a club with a similar shape and loft to my current set to not mess up my gapping. Now I’m just waiting for the Moira’s to be built and arrive. 

Driver:titleist-small: TSR3 9° (Fujikura Ventus TR Red 6X)

Woods: (3W:titleist-small: TSi2 15° (Fujikura Ventus Blue TR 7S); (7W:callaway-small: Rogue ST Max 21° (Fujikura Ventus Blue 7S) 

4 Hybrid:taylormade-small: SIM2 Rescue 22° (Fujikura Ventus Blue HY 80S)

My first set of clubs were Top Flite which came 3 iron thru sand wedge with graphite shafts a 3 wood and driver

My second was all Callaway, Diablo Forged Irons with Big Bertha Woods and Driver

Third set was Ping G400 Irons with G400 woods and hybrids, Ping Glide 2.0 wedges and Callaway Driver

Now I have Srixon ZX7 Irons (4 thru Gap), Ping G410 17 and 19 hybrids, Titleist Vokey SM8 wedges 56.10 and 60.4, Taylor Made Sim 2 Max driver with an Evnroll ER11V putter

The biggest difference is I have been fit for all my current clubs but the hybrids which I just bought shafts with a similar profile to my driver

Hybrid- Callaway

Wedges- Wilson r 90 (back when we only had one wedge, remember that?),  Vokey

Putters- Ping, Callaway- bounce back and forth, currently Ping Answer

Not sure when I will change again, though hit a friends MB the other day and loved it

First of all this is awesome idea. 

 

Driver: tm burner 9' bubble shaft, calloway steelhead plus 7.5',6',5.5' used the v2 shaft untill last season then pxg 0811x gen 2 9' smoke yellow.

Nike clubs was part of college years team sponsorship so had to play them in irons and wood, I was allowed to keep using my driver wedges and putter due to poor performance off tee and around green using Nike stuff. 

steelhead 9°, rbz 5w, ping awr 2 bc irons, isi irons, or nike vapor irons, cleveland 52°, 58°, 64° 2 ball putter.

Goldsmith was my introduction set, worked there and got the fever. Built all of my first clubs except wedges and putter.

Moved into Taylormade woods and Titleist irons. Finally put a full Titleist set together and never really looked back. albeit two Cleveland wedges and a Ping putter. 

@prilltx

Golf is challenging, R U doing the work...or hoping 4 different outcomes?

Titleist C16 irons

Vokey 55°, 60° wedges

Cleveland 50°, 46° wedges

Ping Sigma2 41 inch putter

Titleist D2 driver, 904 / 908 3 and 5 wood

I can’t possibly do this. All I can say is my journey started with Ram Bob Rosburg driver and three wood, a 3/5/7/9 iron of who knows what brand, no idea of the putter I started with, then my first set I got was at HS graduation. Golfsmith woods 1/3/5, and Dunlop Diamond Max irons. After that it’s all a blur….

I'm thinking approximately the same thing.  I'm going to give it a shot, though.

I've gone through a LOT of clubs, and its worse when you consider I've only been playing since fall, 1998.  I will probably forget several somethings.  

Attempting chronological order...

Driver: Dunlop, Goldwin, KZG, Integra, Dynacraft, Golfsmith, Precept, SMT, Louisville Golf, MacGregor, Ram, Wilson, Powerbilt, Bang, Zero Tolerance, TaylorMade, Tour Edge, Bridgestone, Nike, Maltby, Cobra, Ping, Orlimar

Fairways: Dunlop, Tour Edge, Orlimar, Peerless, Snake Eyes, Precept, Mizuno, TaylorMade, Ram, Wilson, Cobra

Hybrid: relatively easy, lol.  TaylorMade, Cobra.  If utilities count here, add Bridgestone

Irons: oh boy...  Dunlop, Goldwin, Tour Edge, Ram, MacGregor, Golfsmith, Dynacraft, Wilson, Palmer, Powerbilt, Precept, Mizuno, Wood Bros, Purefit, TaylorMade, Ping, Tommy Armour, Pinhawk

Wedges: Dunlop, Ram, Wilson, Cleveland, Snake Eyes, Dynacraft, Palmer, Wilson, Zero Tolerance, Mizuno, Maltby

Putter: Dunlop, Ram, Wilson, Spalding, Snake Eyes, Dynacraft, Cleveland, Ping, Geo Low, Mizuno, Yes, Tad Moore

I can't mention models or even individual sets, we'd be here forever.  I've owned three sets of Precept Tour Premiums and three sets of Ram FX Nickel blades, as a couple sad examples...  🙄

Now, if I could choose 1 single club from the stash, that I wish I had never swapped, that would be the Adams Superfast 12LS. Best drives ever!

Luckily, I didn't sell it. It's still somewhere at my folk's place.

Going all the way back to the persimmon and laminated woods of the 70's.......

Woods were Hogan, Wilson Staff and my favorite driver of that era a Powerbilt Citation.  Then moved on to making my own driver & fairways from Maltby & Golfsmith then a Ping G10 now  Ping G410 & Golfsmith hybrids.  

Irons were WIlson Staff to Palmer Standards to Golfsmith Tour Cavity Forged to the current gamers Mizuno JPX 900 Forged.

A lot of different wedges until settling on Cleveland 588's about 25 years ago.

Putters.....waaay too many to remember but fav's were Bullseye wide flange, ping anser & now the Ping Heppler Fetch,
