It's refreshing to see that some of the best players in the world understand that you don't have to fix what isn't broken. It's gotten out of control how many new clubs constantly hit the market. On top of that, they only get more expensive.
I get this guy. I grew up in Jackson, Michigan. Dave and Mike Hill both came from Jackson. In the 1980's I caddied for Dave Hill 10 or 12 times. His irons had all sorts of lead tape all over them. They were Spalding irons from the 70's if not the 60's. The man was one heck of a ball striker.
always love hearing Dave Hill stories. I have been a big fan for a long time now and have only ever seen a video of his swing one time, it was about ten years after I became a fan and I cannot find it again!
This is cool but I'm questioning why wouldn't he just have titleist get everything to his spec when building the clubs with tip weights or powder rather than use lead tape?
The player has to grind the leading edge a little at a time...its not a simple forging for one of the guys to do, need to be on the range with the trailer next to the range with a grinding wheel...then you add back the weight

What I love is that you can buy the old stuff cheap. I love my old blades and feel like a pro golfer when the form is good

@@johnedward5520 he could really play. His brother, Mike, did very well on the Champions Tour (Senior Tour, back then).
I have a set of 680s and 681s. Excellent clubs!!
I still game my 660s, have no desire to change. Beautiful blades
I've been playing the 690s since they came out. Great for distance control.
I struggled for ages then finally hit a whopper and it was with a 690 5 iron.
I just love my blades
I’m still in 680’s also. Best irons ever made for me. Unfortunately I’m not a touring pro so getting sets is getting near impossible
Wow awesome to hear
Ever look at those titleist custom grind irons from the 1990s…I believe they ended with the 681 custom grinds 😁
I have a set with Rifle shafts. Awesome irons but a little bit beat.
More of this please..😎👍
So many tour pros who want a bit more offset. Meanwhile, basically every single digit forum warrior seems to want 0 offset.
These look like my mbs covered in leadtape and all built or altered to perfection.
Scott uses a 10 finger grip, pretty rare on tour

@@jdub7552 Didn't think about the grinding aspect... Thank you for the reply!
Because he's the pro and not the wannabe
I rather these irons than the Titlest irons now days
682’s in 2023 ? !
Only a hack golfer would scoff at using clubs that aren't the newest
Jesus.
Awesome .. this reminds of PXG 0211ST. Little more offset , little bit longer
