I would give the challenge ago and as has been said if I knew no better I'm sure I would have stuck at it.

But I do know better and I think if someone gave me a of blades tomorrow and said "get on with it this is all we can use from now on" I am not sure how long the enjoyment would last.

Do you know something... The only time I really thought I really don't like this, is when I was trying out clubs like the G10 irons with those really big cosseting offset cavities. Really vile. They worked well enough but couldn't abide that overly high flight, the look of the clubs, the balance was all wrong. There was really no challenge in these things at all. They made the game suddenly boring.

Now I am with you that yes we do know better & I must say I really love the clubs I'm using in the S57 irons, as they give me a balance between just enough challenge with enough forgiveness to not let me get into too much trouble & giver me more of the slightly lower ball flight I like from my irons.

That said, if cavities & deep grooves & modern balls & metal headed woods were outlawed overnight, yes I would miss them, but would get on with buisiness of trying to get what I could out of what I was given to use. As I'm that pig headed I just don't know when to give up on something.

As I said previously if I fell through a hole in timen & all I had to play the game with was whatever was available to try & play, then I'd get on with it. I still remember those two clubs my grandfather left at our house with the thinest blades you could imagine & wooden shafts & leather grips.
