Found my old blades... Bit disappointed

[Deleted member 18121]

Went round to my dad's today and dug out my old blades.... I bought these second hand in around 1993 for £30 from a boot fair.

I'm missing the 7 and 9 iron which is weird.... Just for a bit of fun I was going to see if I could hit them, but not sure it's worth it now.

Ben sayers crown..... Would love to find out a bit more about them.

Advertised in Golf World's equipment list for March 1978. According to the equipment list they were available with either laminated or persimmon woods.

I'd call them more of a heel toe weighted club than a blade, unusual (but useful) in having the lofts stamped on the head also. I think these had fairly strong lofts for the time.

Go out and give them a hit, I'm sure you'll find them easier to play than you imagine.

Here's a set down in Devon in case you're getting wistful. (Complete with a Ping putter and a couple of stainless woods!)

That's a great find, I did have a look.... Shame they won't deliver.

I had a set of Ben Sayers "Ray Floyd" back in the day. Proper blades and great when you found the middle. Otherwise you got punished. Adam, can you not push them to deliver?

I did ask, but she said that they were too heavy to mess around with.... I understand where she's coming from, it's not a lot of money for the hassle of packing, posting etc

Now, do I scratch my itch by looking for an old school bladey kind of set to have a mess around with.

Br careful. Just look at Crow as to how this can become an addiction
