Are you kidding?!?!?

A full set of bounce soles, 2-E, but not just in excellent condition .... it's NEVER BEEN USED! That's a time machine from the late 60's, complete with the original box it's been shipped with, with a big, red and blue, Ben Hogan written across it.

Incredible that it's a late 60s (early 70s?) club that's for all intents and purposes, brand new!

The *only* thing that sucks is that they have aluminum shafts.

I've never tried aluminum shafts, so I wouldn't know. I heard they were supposed to be lighter, and thus the shaft lengths could be a little longer, thus the +1 on some model bounce sole heads.

The faces look awesome. I don't think I've seen a vintage hogan face that has no marks at all. I also love those BH grips ... I wonder if they're still good, or if the rubber is destroyed or hardened/crumble-able because of age.

I couldn't buy it, though. Knowing how rare it is in that condition, I probably wouldn't want to hit it. Give me the rusty ones and I'll hit those any day, LOL!

I haven't hit aluminum in a long time. I remember not liking them. I've heard from others the same thing, too light...lack feel.

Great set of clubs though, but $900 (and whatever you would pay for new shafts) is too steep.
