Best club you ever had?

Persimmon Hogan Apex Speed Slot driver. The best I have ever hit the ball off the tee. Damn those metal things.

With me at the moment it has to be my Wilson Staff FWC 5 wood...It has a stiff Grafalloy Nanotech shaft and its probably the One club in my bag you'd have to prise from my cold dead hands to get it from me

I picked it up 2 years ago for 20 euro and the confidence i have had in it from the first ime i hit it is huge.
In todays terms im not sure how forgiving it is but i use this when im about 195-210 mtrs out...
iIt hits as good out of the rough off the tee or off the deck and i hit it as straight as a die!

So if these clubs were the best club you ever had. Where are they now?

Traded in because of the lure of the shiny stuff, cf session lead to a new club?

I just wonder why if it was so good, why change?

Same reason I changed most of my clubs when I was starting out. I thought I was better than I was, I was stupid, I believed all the manufacturer spiel and I thought I could buy a better game and so I changed clubs whenever I went through a bad patch.Always the fault of the club and never me. Basically I was far too easily lured by new shiny things.

I had a Callaway Steelhead 3-wood that got used all the time. Wasnt much of driver back then with my 975D so used to tee off a lot with my 3w. Boy could I get that beauty out there , par 5's I used to eat for breaky going in with this club.

Gave up the game and when I started again I just thought it was old technology so moved it onto someone who needed it more than I did. I've probably hit 2 decent 3-woods in the 2 years i've been back playing

My old Burner Bubble, copper head looked great at the time but after years of use it had to get shelved.

Got rid of my steelhead+ as it seemed antiquated against the bigger head of the modern fairway wood and I allowed myself to be told that newer was better in terms of technology. Wish I'd kept it but hey ho

.....is the correct answer!

Mine was a Callaway ERC II driver before they banned it!!

Won loads of long drive competitions with that one.
Even duffed shots went miles.

That's probably not current anymore.....

Mine was a Warbird 3 wood I bought 15 years ago and in a fit of stoopidity sold it to my mate who plays off 3 and still uses it.

I also remember having a Slazenger 10 iron 25 years ago and it was a wand. That as when I took my first divot.

True , in fact I think there have been 4 or 5 models since I got mine.
But it's a hell of a club & won't be changed for a while.

Callaway Steelhead 4 wood with firm shaft. For many years my go to club for tight tee shots and great for approaches to our long par 4s. Went like a bomb, but over time my swing slowed down and I felt I needed a softer shaft so it was relegated to the reserves then traded on. No regrets though, replacement Steelhead III is also a great club.

Other favourite is my Odyssey Dual Force Rossie. A real quality classic club. Have tried, and will try, other putters but have a feeling I'll be hanging on to this.
