I was working for Wilson as a production engineer and actually built these clubs. We made 5 of them at our plant in Tullahoma, Tn. I sent 4 to the headquarters in Chicago where John picked out one to play. I STILL HAVE THE ONE I KEPT. NO IT IS NOT FOR SALE. It is a very playable club and I have hit it a few times. It is now put away and is a great story for me.
How much
@@JeDxDeVu he said not for sale 🙄
@@bigbluemsp I know.
🤥
You are your last name! ;p
Caddy absolutely striped that ball
Oh ya, that was a nice swing
He’s got a nicer swing than most of the golfers he caddies for I dare say 😂
Caddies do be the best golfers they’re on the course more than we think
I’m sure most caddies are pretty awesome golfers in their own right, at least compared to the average scratch golfer.
Caddie had the best swing by far!
for real it was so nice
I’m sure most caddies are pretty awesome golfers in their own right.
I briefly thought it was going to be some surprise where the guy was actually a PGA golfer.
3:24 that's a smooth looking swing!
Like fucking butter. I aspire to have a swing like that one day
Learning to play golf in the late 60s then high school golf late 70s one irons were quite common,
I carried one for years my dad called it the stroke saver, for when you driver went bad.
In highschool and college it was always in my bag. My favorite club was my ping 2 wood.
When lynx made the black cat the one got replaced with a 2 iron.
When your caddy is better than all of you 😂
most likely. they spent more time on golf course than average golfer so it's no surprise.
A lot of people caddy so they can play golf for free. And nobody wants a caddy who doesn’t know the game inside out. A lot of caddies are as good as the club professional.
Usually the case
Unsurprising really
Must be tough watching people with shit swings all day long.
I once played 9 holes with a guy who only had 3 clubs. He had a zero iron, 9 iron, and a putter. I was a 10 handicap at the time and long story short he beat me by 3 strokes. It was a crazy day to say the least.
@@DarkkitesTV gfy boomer.
Wow who gives a crap
@@dailytimes6787made enough of an impression on you to comment!

@@beavisbuttgoblin fuck yeah bud
My brother in law played on the Nike for a few tourneys before joining the Marines (and played for the Marines) and he carried a custom Merit 1 iron. That thing was like hitting a boulder with a hockey stick. He could shape it out to about 260. It was madness.
Cool story bro

Long irons especially off the tee are severely underrated. I love my 2 iron off the tee which I get about 220 to 245 yards. I am sad to say not really much far behind my playing partners using their drivers.
Yeah I have a Mizuno hitogami 1 iron in my set just because it was sitting with old used stuff in a bin and I snagged it for like $20
Saw this bad boy in full action as a steward at birkdake in 98......had no driver at all abd just hit this. Got on the 16th, with Mark calc and hit 3 unbelievable shots with hit.....straight, long draw and power fade.....just fantastic to watch, the strike on the ball and power was something else
I actually purchased a 0 iron in Japan in the early 90's it was made by an unknown (to us in the west) Japanese company. but it was little advantage to the 1 iron I carried
Never sleep on the caddie, odds are they're the best stick in the group.
I think it would also be uncomfortable. I prefer a mattress.
He used this, along with his driver, to make the 630 yard par 5 17th at Baltustrol in 2.
not quite - the Staff RM irons only came out in 1995, and the 0 was developed from there. He was still hitting a 1-iron (Wilson Staff Ultra 45) back in '93
@@euan1234 According to a Golf Digest article I have from back in 05’ (when they were covering the upcoming PGA Championship), he used a 0 iron. The writer even said “(yes, a 0 iron)”. Whether that information was correct or not, I cannot say, but I can certainly say that’s what was written in the article. It’s the only reason I’d ever even heard of a 0 iron.
@@thetowndrunk988 - yes, for sure. I also saw something saying it was a 0-iron as well, when I was double-checking. But I'm pretty sure I'm good with saying it was a 1, as the actual irons from the 1993 tournament was auctioned a few years back. I tried to link it but I don't think youtube allowed it. Entire set of irons sold for only $500 at the time, but more importantly it was a 1-iron in the set. I think the 0 came out in 1995, after he had won the Open at St Andrews. We are discussing such a small detail, but it was just because I was a huge fan of Daly around this period, and I remember the notoriety of the 0-iron (I am left-handed so it was unavailable to me!)
That bunker shot! With a zero iron!!!
Love it Boyz ! Keep going in this direction, love the changes
The caddie even mimicked john Daly’s swing 👏😳
I was at TPC Avenel for the Kemper Open and followed JD all day when he debuted the Zero
I carry a 2 iron...but it looks nothing like that 😂. I remember trying to hit a Cobra 1 iron back in the day. It was the smallest head I had ever seen. I tried hitting it a couple times...the vibration was unreal...it stung like crazy.
In the 90s I found my dad’s old golf clubs that he played while he was in his 20s (he’s almost a hundred years old now).
I took it to the driving range just for pure curiosity.
Apart from harden grips and I believe, super stiff shaft and those tiny driver head which made of real wood.
I can’t hit those damn things with any good result.
Made me amazed of professional and amateur golfers in the past generations hundred of years ago.
Fast forward to a decade or two ago…
I tried my son’s brand new driver that’s, ridiculously, as big as a baby’s head.
Omg, it’s so easy to use.
Golf manufacturers are so great at R&D to make golf much more fun for average players.
3-4 decades ago I know a lot of friends who gave up golf because the slow progress were simply too upsetting for them. The technology does helps a lot these days.
Imagine the bear in his prime with modern equipment...
25-30 years ago I carried a 1 iron for specific courses that were more narrow. At that time my driver club head speed was 128, so one iron off the tee was not as difficult as for others. I could get it out there about 250 and straight. I couldn't hit it off the deck for anything.
how did you measure your clubhead speed 30 years ago?
Video idea. 5/7 wood vs 3/4 hybrid comparison. I’m torn and like to hear your thoughts!
Interesting ….
@@Golficity I think it’s a hot topic for those of us that, let’s just say, are happy to break 100 but are going for that 90 barrier.
It was fairly well known that JD didn’t like fairway woods but did like long irons. Also, this was before hybrids were in existence.
pretty sure a 7 wood lines up with more of a 6i/5i distance. a 3hy would carry 60 yards more.
@@snowboardfamilyof4 my 5 iron is 24 degrees so I’d say a 7 iron is closer to my 4 iron
I had a Lynx Parallax 1 iron once and it was hard as hell to hit. When you connected though, no other club felt better.
Still have mine-1 thru pw
When lynx came out with the black cats my 1 iron got replaced with the 2 black cat
What was that app you were using?
It looked like a very informative and well thought out app
I used to have a 3-PW set of Staff Midsize cavity backs. Loved those clubs. Wish I still had them
What app do you use to get the yardages and other stats?
A 2 iron sat in my bag for a long time when I was younger. Would be a preferred club when trying to reach longer par 5s in two.
I need one of those, I LOVE long irons.
I have an adjustable I can set to 0 degree needless to say it impossible to get off the ground but you can get like 100 yards carry due to the spin and if you hit it well
I used a lot of time a mizuno mp 33 2 iron, i used that iron when the day is windy, and is a great iron
I was playing a money game with daly at MSU two weeks prior to him winning the PGA Championship.................... an example of his length: on a 239 par 3 he hit a 5 iron ( I would hit 1 iron or 3 wood depending on conditions, and on most drives he was 60 yards ahead of me :( Thats with balata balls and lofts nowhere near what are on irons today.
He was a beast back then. I watched him play on what was then the Ben Hogan Tour the season prior. Wish he would have taken his health and fitness half way serious through the rest of his career
I still carry and play my tommy driving iron. I tee off with either that or my 2i. I don’t carry any woods. haven’t replaced my dci’s because no one make long irons anymore
Yea i have a set of tommy armour 845 evo cavity v31s. And i have a 2 iron everybody is always shocked that i have one. Nobody is used to seeing any irons above 3 lmao. Excelent clubs though. Very accurate and true. The 2 is a bitch to hit tho
It’s also a great club for keeping the ball below the tree line. Makes a difference.
I have a 2 iron blade. It's great for punch outs
i would love to have this club it is a perfect inbetween club for that one situation you need for distance and spin to have a gum ball the perfect impact landing where it stays in place for medium distance sake but good for the tight shots too.
In 1998 my T-Zoid pro mizuno 1 iron was 15degrees, almost no spin (except side spin 😆) but into a strong wind it would go about 2/3 in the air 1/3 along the ground and down wind it was 50/50 so al long as you knew where the line to land the ball was , it was good of the tee , but compared to my 17 deg PXG 0311 hybrid i use now for the same stuff all these years later , mehh .
Ya I used to have a “Driving Iron “ also. But it was before John Daily
That caddy’s swing I pure asf sheesh
I used to use a DI (driving iron) cant remember who made it but it had a chunky base and was, for me, easier to control than a driver.
I love my driving iron, i got it from an estate sale and I’m not even sure if they make them anymore. Its always the best reaction “what club are you using?” Driving iron. “Driving what? What do you mean?”
Thats wierd, I hit a 3 Iron 215 Saturday on the green. I cant remember what I could do with my 1 iron but im going to get it out this weekend.
Classic. Not surprised the caddy has the best swing hahaha. Good video!
Got another one coming out Monday where we challenge people with Tigers 97 driver. 😬
This is cool, I've amassed a good collection of 1 irons, found a 10 iron, I need to find one of these
I have a 10 but not a 0 😭
I have an old 11 iron and I love it
10 iron is usually curtsies for pitching wedge.
10 irons are confusing macgregor called their pw 10 irons but then you also get the 10 degree irons
@@chubeviewer I used to have a putter that was labeled 10
i got an old wilson 2 iron, i choose it over hybrids or my woods still
I'm a long iron hitter and would absolutely love to hit this one time. John Daly was one of my favorite golfers back in the day!!
Second dude up had a beautiful swing. Balance was on point, just came out of it a bit.
I never had a zero iron. But back in the day I used a one iron off the tee. I could hit it as far as the driver and much more accurately.
Your driver must have sucked then
Wilson Staff RM Forged Midsize, I still game mine! Mr. Mandrella would be proud.
First swing caddie looks like it caught it nice.
What’s that app called tho?
caddy swung so much cleaner than anybody else. thing of beauty
I use a 2 iron on the tee box. I usually hit it 220 yards.
No you don’t.
I just bought a Silver Scott 845 0 Iron (14*) but haven't hit it yet but I'm not worried as I can hit old school blade a 1 irons (16*) no problem. Now I have to find this Wilson and buy it to try out but man 12* will be tough. I love collecting these weird clubs. Also just snagged a Mizuno 13* driving iron but havent received it yet. Lets GOOOOO!
845 0 iron. Great score 👍
As long as your hands are leading the clubhead through impact and your bottoming out in front of the ball, it doesn’t matter what club you’re using.
You’ll have consistency in your strikes.
Problem is most people suck at golf.
That caddy’s swing is so smooth
I have a Jack Nicholas 2 iron. I am terrified not to hit it pure 😂 At 62 with arthritis it pains me to do otherwise.A good hit for me is around 200+ yards
I have an Aussie Lynson 2 iron. When you find the sweet spot😮💨, eventually, it is so fine. Much better than some of my 3 irons.
What app did you use to tracer the ball with distance and information on it ?
Omg. None of those guys can actually play golf. And then comes the caddy and hits it like a pro! Great job mr caddy!!!
My body hurt’s watching these guys swing 😅
Ahh I’ve got that Midsize golden RM 3 iron and my god that looks good
Club performed a lot better than I thought it would
I just know that caddie had a looonnngggg day with that group lol
You all should take me golfing. I promise you'll laugh harder than ever before.
Seriously, it's that bad. My handicap is just a picture of a wheelchair at this point.
As someone that can’t hit a wood or hybrid shot to save my life, something like this or a 1-2 iron would be a great addition to my bag
I doubt it.
whats the app you use for the carry etc??
ive played for 40 years and met many handicappers who had 1 irons for basically bragging rights, but hardly any consistently hit the ball well with it. fast forward to today, you don't see as many around these days
What app is that for tracking your swing and shot?
Back in this time I was playing HS golf with 845s and nuking 8 irons over the green from the center of the fairway. Not the best era for clubs but the long irons went a mile.
Awesome video, new subscriber
Ive got an old school 1 iron my uncle handed down to me because I cant hit a driver or wood to save myself. Its probably my most used club
Caddy killed it, love it
He had a great swing!
Guys are u.doing a updated what's in the bag
Coming in January!
Will thier be much change in the bag
U say u something special for me I'm in england uk
it's called a "driving" iron for a reason obviously, but most golfers don't need it for accuracy, rather due to the fact that average players (Daly included) couldn't turn a driver over right-to-left not only from a lack of loft but also the pulling motion they use to keep the face open at impact to get the driver off the ground. 12 degrees is more than enough. Micah Morris made a video with Kyle Berkshire on this very subject
What app is that to tell the distance?
What app is used for tracker?
Man that caddie had a swing on him!
I hit a 2 iron off the tee occasionally. I occasionally hit it poorly
Flop Shot Challenge with the zero iron would be awesome!
Let’s go!
@@Golficity I'm ready to go😎
It doesn’t hurt that that fairway looks better than the greens at most of the courses I play.
Played College golf 91 - 94; had a Ping Eye2+ bent to 12, x stiff titanium shaft. Using school provided Titleist Tour 100 balata balls I could count on 265+ off the tee, 240+ off the fairway. We Had a good enough team to attend state regionals my final year, but the rest of the team focused on liquor and weed, so we did not advance, even when schools we had trounced during the season qualified to state finals. I still have VIP 1 irons, Muirfield 1 irons, Apex II 1 iron, Titleist 1 irons. Due to shoulder injury I can no longer use them, and no one is interested in purchasing them.
I used to always have a 1iron for every set of irons that I used, but a 0 iron ?
Guy in the white coveralls has a beauty swing
a friend of mine was telling me about his one iron...he was in his yard and teed up a ball....he said he hit his one iron pretty good...went inside and poured a cup of coffee and came back out...when he got to where he could see the shot...the ball was just coming down in the field next door.......I was amazed....heres your proof mike....
whats that app at 1:32
I've tried a 1 Iron before was very young at the time but struggled to hit it....
I have a friend who, 45 years ago, could hit his Ping 1-iron 10-15 yards farther than pros hit their drivers. He was as long as Evan “Big Cat” Williams!
The fact that no one hit a stinger with this makes me physically ill
I’m amazed every time I rip a 3 iron.
I wanna know how to get one
How much for the club please?
What was the app called
As a Jr golfer my favorite club was a 3 iron. Could get distance with accuracy, hit from the tees with that club so often. So I feel it
I just came from 18 holes and watched this! I would LOVE to try that club!
I need that in my life immidiately
I was curious on what J.D was using back then.
Where can I buy one
I got a one iron on Amazon, I can hit it just like my 5 taylormade sim 2. Except it goes 270 yards.
How can I buy one of these clubs?
I hit driver off the deck probably on average 3 times a round. Especially on par 5s. How is this a problem? I’m usually worse off the tee than I am from the fairway with it. Sometimes when I am properly struggling off the tee, I hit driver from the tee box without a tee. I’m not even that good. Only 6 handicap. I’m sure if you got actual golfers to play it, they’d do ok.
I’d probably love one. The lower centre of the club than driver would make it easier to hit than driver from the fairway I think. Although could be wrong. Got a mate with a blade 2 iron and that thing is rough in my hands and he crushes it. It is like a butter knife.
Damn I where was that when I used to play golf?! I would always tee off with a 5 iron and do pretty good with it. I hate drivers
Love your freckles!!!!
Did you sell that iron yet? I’d be interested. Currently playing a 14 degree iron, I want something more aggressive.
