So who's regularly using the oldest stuff here? I'm not talking about that hickory shaft set that comes out one a year, or the old clubs in your garage. But a set you routinely put into play, maybe 50% of the time. I don't mean how long you've had them, but when that model was released.

I should maybe be excluded from this since I am only really playing again after mostly 8 years off. But my list is
Wedge 2008
Driver 2007
Irons 2002
Putters 2002 & 2000
Fw 2001
Bag must be pre 2005

How do you find out when they were released?

I just googled my toppies, says 98-99.

Everything else though is probably later than 2010.

Correction, j33 hybrids are 2005.

It's near impossible for me to answer this question as since January last year I've used 7 sets of irons on rotation. 3-6 games before switching again. Just as many drivers have been used in that time also. Nothing meets the 50% requirement.

Played 10-12 rounds with the 1984 vintage Cobra Tour Model II's in that time.

Ping Zing 2 putter. Game it every week. Google says they were released in 1984. I can't remember when I got it, but I've had it for a long time.

I played a charity day a while back with a bloke still using the same clubs he bought in 1988. From the same pro shop of the course we were playing. Spalding blades, with a daggy retro spalding bag. Persimmon 3 wood, but he did have a metal driver. The bloke just played golf everynow and then, but he flushed those old clubs. Still would be a single marker.

Been playing some Dynacast irons for a little while now. Tour model 3 which are eye 2 clones. Must be 80's I reckon. 431 stainless and just work great for me. TM rac wedges what are they, 2003? Sonartec fairways, pretty old now. Driver is probably most recent but the zl encore would be 2011 or 12 I guess. Cameron Kombi s is pretty recent also I suppose.
All in all not a very new bag.
