How to Choose Vintage Irons

The set for 240 looks to be in good shape. @Blades4life has a recent thread here about those. Hit him up for additional information.

The other set for 195 is a good example for paying close attention because a Percussion Center was inserted into the set. Since it was you might be able to really low ball the offer and turn around a get another single club off Ebay but with a different serial number- so, some options there. In both cases the amount of offset is one of the main features to identify. I’m not that familiar with those specs but I have some older Hogan Apex gear with the smallest amount of offset. Offset figures are generally available online I believe somewhere and I wouldn’t be surprised if Lag, or other folks here, have those figures. Shoot Lag an email, or maybe @NRG might have a stash of offset figures lying about.

Here’s what looks like at first glance to be a decent set of PC’s, but not sure why the ferrules are all black, maybe that way from factory, not sure but if I was a buyer I would first find out about the ferrules, maybe a shaft pull at some point. But a cheaper set for getting your feet wet.

Check out Macgregor too, tons of stuff on Ebay.

edit: just saw you purchased set, good deal, have fun.
