Extremely rare ALL-JAPAN by the impressive Mr Dave Wood, absolutely mint condition. Any chance we can see all the wood bros in this one thread? Post your pics. Love to see the rare ones 😀

Who can tell me anything about this little anomaly? Extremely well made, lovely block with a good tight grain, unusual orange/brown stain, stunning fibre insert and well aligned screws which “break a craftsman’s rules” sits perfectly square 👍 Stunning

Who remembers playing one of these? Vague recollection of them not going far enough to lose one 😉🙄

Can anybody throw some light on this? 1967 Masters, apparently belonged to Mr Gay Brewer who actually won this prestigious tournament that year. How totally cool.

And just like that we are back. How about this for a piece of history and a masterpiece of persimmon. Owned and played by Chi Chi Rodriguez.

As we say goodbye to 2022 it’s time to say hello to a brand new collection. Looking to get one of every model made by The Wood Bros 🇺🇸 and this is the start. Rare as hens teeth these bad boys. Enjoy.

This is one of the finest interpretations of the infamous MacGregor 693T we have ever seen, right down to the insert colour. In the words of Dave Wood an immaculate “driving instrument” Coming soon to our website.

Toney Penna spirit of 1776 Bicentennial. One of only 200 made!! Obviously this is a marmite situation here people so please let us know if you love it or hate it? The grain on the face is beautiful but personally I would rather see the wood that lies beneath.

Freshly refurbished 1960’s MacGregor, one of many services which we will be offering in the coming weeks. Club head was previously black but the new look revealed a super tight grain and a tiny carbon spot. The 60 yr old grip is in mint condition.

Check out these absolute beezers!! MacGregor screaming the epitome of retro and rare, coffee and cream ferrules, corresponding brown wrap grips with a chestnut/gold grip cap. If they were my spec they would be straight in the bag. 🔥❤️🔥

Here are the stunning H&B PowerBilt Ltd Ed Century irons to match yesterdays persimmon woods. 2-10 iron set oozing class. Neuman leather grips. Don’t make them like they used to.

H&B aka PowerBilt golf clubs (vintage) were some of the most solid clubs ever made, they had a unique style and panache. Love the woods being named Driver, Brassie, Spoon and Cleek. Ltd Ed set No 0784/1000 Neuman Grips. Irons to follow 😀😀

Dunlop Maxfli made some stunning persimmon woods. Tight grain, fibrous Ivorine inserts, face screws aligned and they sit perfectly square. Massively underrated. These are brand new!!!
