The anti ho club, longest living club in a WRXer's bag

[BMC]

Ping Zing 2 (bronze) and Wilson Staff JP II 55* sand wedge - both since [b]1987[/b]. All my other clubs have changed a lot!
Hard to get rid of scoring clubs that really work.

[CUTigers2011]

v-steel 3 wood since sometime around the beginning of the year (Jan.-Feb. i think). Just bought a Speedline LP last weekend but not giving up the v-steel yet just in case. might end up just give it a reshafting.

[jastac]

My scotty newport 2 studio stainless since spring of 2001, the rest of my bag my oldest club is Nov.

[indygolfman]

Mizuno T3 T-zoid 3 wood that's my constant GAMER! Pretty sure I picked it up around 97-99 timeframe. Best, most consistent club in my bag and I use it EVERY round.

[Laws of Woo]

Up until this summer, I had the same set of Adams Tight Lies Irons in my bag since they were released in 1999.

[TheMackDaddy]

cg14 58* since late 2008!! I need new wedges but these grovves are still sharp so I feel bad getting rid of them!!

[mdgboxx]

Bought my first golf bag at 51 yrs old. Wilson 1200, driver-5W, 2-SW and a Ping Pal2, ss. On a whim, I bought a Ping Zing, Mg/Br, tried it 4 rds and put the Pal2 back in the bag. That was in 1994. This september, I bought a Ping, Craz-E iWi; Shaved four shots off my game within the first week. THAT one is staying in the bag for a long time to come. I still have my Wilson clubs at home along with a few other sets but, my Ping Pal2 is actually the ONLY putter I ever gamed until now. So, I've had my Ping Pal2 in the bag all of my golfing life, 14 years.

[nitram]

Exotics CB2 15 & !8 degree fairway woods since June 2007.

[ryancjordan]

Scotty Cameron California Del Mar since like March. I think I got my 910F around then too, but that has been in and out of the bag a bunch.

[HoosierHacker89]

BMC is the leader with clubs from 1987...thats 24 years. Anybody have a club in the bag longer than that?

I was born in 89, so i really can't compete there.

[mtsmith]

Titleist 735cm since December 2005.
Scotty Studio style (although recently torched and paintfilled) since February 2006.
Titleist 906f2 and 906f4 3 and 5 wood since July 2007
Vokey SM wedges since May 2009.
Titleist 910d3 since April 2011.

I generally don't change much.

[brettmorey]

I'm still playing a Callaway Big Bertha Warbird 3 wood and 5 wood. I've had every other club in my bag less than a year.

[bullie76]

My Ping G5 19* hybrid, I guess. Not sure when they came out, probably around 2005. I occasionally play with an old set of Ping eye 2 irons. Almost tempted just to go back to those full time.

[Orchgolf]

I've had my 13.5* 975f in the bag since 98' I think... My relationship with this club is longer than the one with my wife.....

[CannonAtShort23]

Gonna have to go with my rossa corza ghost. Been in the bag for a whopping 2 seasons now ahah

[Left Rough]

I guess however long the Titleist 585h has been out.... 5 years?

[Dizz]

910Fd 15- Tour AD DI-8X since February 2011

[cmrl1986]

Have had my Scotty Mil-Spec in the bag since 05. Bought it for $60 beat to hell and just recently (last December) got it redone.. It's not going anywhere. FYI 05 was my senior year of high school... Lol

[mshills]

I had a Hogan Special SI sand wedge for so long that I don't exactly remember when I put it into my bag. 1990? 1991? Somewhere around there. It lasted until two years ago when I finally admitted that the grooves were essentially gone.

[mdb0103]

I bought a G15 4 wood not long after they came out. It's not going anywhere any time soon.

[mwink822]

Up until this year, it was my Scotty Cameron Studio Stainless Newport 2; it was in for approaching 10 years. I put a Scotty Cameron Studio Stainless Newport Beach 1.5 Prototype in play this year, however...it may be remanded to the closet in favor of my old trusty Newport 2, however.

[theelvis510]

Tad Moore Pro1X since 2005. It's outlasted girlfriends cars and jobs. I've been playing Titleist 962 irons on and off since 1998 but never long enough to claim they've been in the bag that long.

[B-Nads]

I have an old MacGregor Tourney 7 wood with a wierd double-tapered shaft that I bought in '97 - it still finds it's way in the bag from time to time. I still have my G2 Anser C from the year they were released, and a MP-001 3 wood from the year after they were released.

[johnnythunders]

I have a 1993 Merit No-bounce wedge that has been my go to wedge for 18 years. I have two others but they just don't feel the same. This is the magic club I use for all shots within 50 yards.

I was just wondering who has the longest going streak with a single club. I think that club deserves an award for being in a wrxer's bag for the longest. I basically want to find that guy that has had the same bulls eye for 35+ years and still going.

Mine is my putter. Karsten Series Craz-e Went into my bag December 25, 2009.

[Strömsborg]

I think it's mý Ping G5 5-wood, it's been around since 2008. I've become a better player since and the shaft is a bit swampy, but I can turn it both ways and that's good enough.

Come to think of it I also have a Ping My Day bronze putter, It's been in and out of the bag, currently in, and I bought it in the mid 90's.

I've had my Cleveland Reg 588 Chrome wedges (56*/60*) in my bag since I was my junior or senior year of high school (circa 1998/1999).

My grandfather used to always carry around a silver dollar in his pocket. Over the years, it would get worn completely smooth just from being in there. Eventually it would wear thin enough that the edges would get kind of sharp--at which point he'd replace it with a new one, and repeat the process.

I imagine the face of your 588 looking basically like that silver dollar at this point.

That's awesome, man.

Lol. Nope, the grooves are fine. Those wedges will last a lifetime. I recently tried something different but the Cleveland wedges just feel right. In the old days, and before all of the marketing hype, tour pros would do the same thing... You find what works and stick with it.

My actual bag itself

[Beatupfender]

Ben Hogan 3h w/ steel shaft bought at Golftown in the summer of '04, followed by a Wilson Deep Red driver bought in the Fall of the same year.
Bang Golf Beta-ti 3w from early 2005.

All still in play.

[dukedsp]

I have had my Ping Anser 4 in my bag since I got it in 1989.

A prize to the guy that is still gaming a Callaway C4.
