Estimate How Old Of Your Clubs(Ii)

There were clubs manufactured after 1930 where pre-owned golf clubs with metal shafts were overlaid with plastic covers. Even though these are often represented as authentic wooden golf clubs, the old reliable magnet test can always uncover whether the original shaft is wood. If it not, this is a post 1930 age factor.

 

The Metal Club Head - Simple test. Prior to 1920, a different grade of steel was used to manufacture club heads. This inferior grade of steel, as you would expect, results in today's clubs like taylormade r9 irons which look more dated; dark colored, sometimes even rusty. An old golf club that still exhibits a shiny club head would point to a piece dated post 1920.

 

Markings or Stamps - If there is a marking or shop stamp, an Antique Gold Club Reference Guide , like our recommended resource could be used to date the club pretty precisely.

 

As with many vintages, often times the best way to preserve the value of a best set of Callaway golf irons is to do nothing at all in the way of polishing, or painting, or shaft repair that would compromise the original integrity of the piece. Any reputable antique dealer, and particularly those in the golf collectibles arena, would be well equipped to help you understand those things that would enhance value vs those things which would compromise value.

 

Remember when you acquiring an antique golf club, especially through a commercial channel, you should ensure that you receive a certificate of authenticity, and if possible, a golf club appraisal with your purchase. Good Luck.
