Does anyone have a favorite old club?

Does anyone have a favorite old club that is in the bag regardless of other clubs they use?

I know I go on about how I love my PING Eye 2's but for me its my Taylor Made 300 Series 5 Wood. It is really a 4 Wood (17 degrees of loft) and came out in 2001. It is titanium headed and not overly big but has a fairly shallow profile so is versatile. I have not really got used to hitting it off a tee (tend to use my 3H if my driver is not so hot) but I can hit it from the fairway and the rough just fine.

I have read other posts on here advocating the use of a 4 Wood as a great club to have in the bag and as mine really has a 4 Wood loft that is how I think of it. Also it is a 2 for 1 club as it took out the need for a 3 wood and a 5 wood. At only $9.99 used from Play it Again Sports, it has also been one of my most economical club purchases.

My putter. An Odyssey White Hot Tour Rossie. The first "proper" club I bought to upgrade from the Ben Sayers starter set I began with and I have never been tempted to change it since. Think I got it second hand in American Golf.

It's hardly old compared to some people's but my ping g15 5 wood is one of my favourite clubs. I have had since 2013 I think and its my go to club in situations where I need to approach the green from distance. Also out of fairway bunkers comes into its own

My Odyssey White Hot XG #7 Putter.

It's rare I consider getting another putter simply because of how much I love this one. If I was going to go for another putter I would most likely get the newer Odyssey #7 model!

Ive only played the last 10 years so don't have any old equipment as such, but the stuff thats been in my bag the longest is the two Mizuno MP10 wedges i got in 2010, love them and won't be changing until they become illegal in 2023 or when ever that is.

Yeah Taylormade Burner 5W , just about 10 years old, not exactly vintage.

Not any more as my bag has just changed completely but previously a couple of Adams Redline Titanium fairway woods that I had for about 15 years before finally changing. It took a lot to put them aside.

Odyssey two-ball putter. Got it when they first came out and it's been a regular ever since. If it gets dropped to the bench it's always only temporary.

Got an Eye2 BeCu wedge in the bag, good for all sorts of shots. Fats, thins...

Callaway Great Big Bertha 3 Wood - bought it in 1999 and still play with it when I want a 3 wood in the bag

Crow!

Very interesting old school bag. If you do noit mind, why did you make such a collection up, do you play to the same level with them as with new clubs, how is the game different for you with those clubs?

My set covers from 1982-2008, TM Burner Driver and Adams Hybrid being the most modern, Eye2 Irons being the oldest. But you have me beat by decades!

Used to...
I have a 21° 7 wood from a company called Seal - they were a component brand like Snake Eyes but cheaper.
I could hit this club anywhere between 150 and 210 yards with ease.
Had a steel shaft in it which eventually gave out.
Nobody could find an exact replacement so they fitted "something similar"
It's never been the same since.......
