Found my first ever clubs, a real oddity!!!

Found my first ever clubs today from my early teenage years

Browning 440's

Planning on giving them a bash at the range next time I go, they kinda remind me of a mizzy fli hi very narrow faces on them and no cavity at all, like a lump on a stick

Sorry but I thought those Brownings were pretty horrible clubs

At the market today a guy was trying to sell a pristine set of Bobby Locke Slazenger irons.
He was quite amused when I told him they were over 50 years old.

They are horrible, was never able to hit them right, cost me about £40 at the time if I remember correctly

Wow they are weird. Seem like a strange combination of 1890's and 1970's.

I can remember when Browning were trying to get into the golf market but they never really succeeded.

 

[Coatsy79]

Oddly enough they're from the mid 80's I think

I got them some 10 odd years later recommended from a local golf shop when I was 13 reckon he was just trying to get rid of them :rofl:

An example of the short lived trend for low profile irons.

I have a JPX hi fli around somewhere that looks just like these. Well not such strange looking lie angles but very similar looking.

This the same Browning that makes submachine guns?

Only one thing more dangerous than an Uzi.....

An Uzi with a slice.

Gives a whole new meaning to shooting a low score.

Ugly as sin and I remember Browning trying to come into golf. They never really broke through and you can see why.
