Great Equipment Alerts

This doesn’t come around very often:

If I may I call dibs on the RC945 4 wood, the Wood Bros 3 wood with the solid white insert, the BG1W 4 wood & the 6 screw M85W driver. There’s no need to bid all over each other on these beauties and there’s more than enough to spread around. I’d love love love to pick up that All-American but I know the price is gonna go thru the roof.

Post what anyone wants to bid on this thread so nobody goes broke please.

Nice find lcdv!

I have my eye on that 5-screw M85W, which is a bit of a strange item. White/Red/White EOM insert instead of a White/Black/White insert. 5-screws, but “Eye-O-Matic” on the soleplate.

Oh Lord… On priciple I will have to bid on the first Wood Bros Driver (the darker one) and possibly the All-American.

The Penna JS is giving me heartburn :imp:

J, you saw this hours before I did hehe. I want just about every darn one of these but of course I value my marraige far more :wink:

Nice thing about this collection is that so many of the oldies have been reshafted with DG and possibly refinished so they’ll keep the high dollar collectors away who look for all original only. I saw that other EOM too I don’t remember any like that with T pattern screws. I’ve got Bud McVey’s '48 Tommy Armour driver with the solid red insert with the 5 tiny screws in an X pattern and almost all the 5 screw patterns I’ve seen were always an X rather than a T. I want the other one because from the pic it looks like it has more carbon deposits than anything I’ve ever seen. Could be a camera thing but I don’t think so. There’s a lot of heads with sketchy grain so take a look before anyone bids. One thing for sure, whoever this guy’s dad was, he was a player with great taste rather than just a collector.

The 5-screw pattern was only used for one year when the introduced the eye-o-matic insert in '51 or '52. After that they changed to 6 screws. The '51 or '52 M85’s normally don’t have the Eye-O-Matic engraved on the soleplate. And the White/Red/White insert is usually found on the M75W not the M85W. Here’s a pic of my M85W.

freddiec’s keyboard might short out on this post :smiley:

great find…no money here, so no bidding…glad I have my driver and 3 wood

all i need is a 4 wood!!! (did Wood Bros make a 5 wood? I have never seen one)

Some cracking clubs on there but no international shipping Im afraid. Might have had a dabble otherwise!

I took my first lesson from Lionel Hebert in 1956. I used my father’s MacGregor Tourney clubs, he had the complete set, including 4 persimmon woods. They were D4, stiff flex. I gripped down almost to the metal, but they were still awful hefty. Perhaps these clubs were a factor in my being a hooker from day one. Anyway, thanks for bringing back fond memories.

Pretty sweet

Might not be a ‘great equipment alert’ but i’m looking for some opinion if anyone has one on these puppies

are they heavy heads & stiff heavy shafts ? (Mac medium 2 shafts)

anyone know what year they are & anyone used them & have an opinion ?

Thanks for any input

Medallion Hogan full set- with legend 5 shafts

These aren’t in ideal condition as far as the heads go…but the apex 5 shafts could be a winner to pull and re-use

And maybe a good set here for the ABS wife to keep her in the good books

How much are 5 flex shafts worth? Theres a lefty set here at a pawn shop but its grouped together with some other junk. They want like around $120 for it…

Bspeck, what are the lefty set? I might take the heads.
