In putting together my set of clubs I have picked two manufacturers of quality clubs. First I have picked MacGregor for their irons and quality of shafts. I have chosen the "OA" head version. This relates to the flanged sole. The other manufacturer is William Gibson of Scotland. This company was at one time the largest manufacturer of clubs in the World. Gibson made nice flanged "STAR" irons and had very good Hickory Shafts. I think Gibson also made for Jack White his famous Jack White woods. I have been lucky to find a nice set of the woods, all with good Jack White selected shafts. I am still searching for the MacGregor woods to use. I intend to have a set of both companies clubs when I am done.
I have selected lofts and lie angles that fit my swing and the distance I want to hit each club. I find somewhere between 4-5 degrees between iron clubs works out well. I am trying to reduce the number of iron clubs I carry and I am always trying new thoughts. I have found you can have 5-6 degrees of loft between clubs if you are able to "manufacture" different shots with your clubs. My goal is for most USA courses to carry 12 total clubs and in Scotland 10 total clubs. As you can imagine this takes into account the different style of play in Scotland versus forced carries here in the USA.

The best Niblicks I have found are made by Gibson and they have a nice flanged sole. I also have a nice MacGregor with a flange and some bounce. I feel that this club is the hardest to find and might be the toughest good player to get for your play set.

I have chosen a Wilson Amby Dex putter because I putt both right and left handed. This putter however would make a good putter for anyone because of its good weight and balance. The putter also does not have too much loft. Most putters you find will have to have the loft reduced to no more then 5 degrees for the courses you will play here in the USA. Most of the putters you find are too light and also too offset for good play. If you see a good looking putter that is a two sided putter, as some brass heads are, remember that when you bend some of the loft out the putter will look better and position the hosel in a much better looking position. These old brass heads, if they have enough weight, will work fine once you bend the hosel a little to take some loft out. The Spalding Company made many Aluminum mallets and these will work fine for you. I would look for one with a crack in the hosel as you will want to file or have a friend "mill" the face flat and smooth at about 4 degrees of loft. The cracked hosel will save you some money and not hurt the playability and also you won't feel bad about shaving the face.

Well, good luck in finding YOUR SET.
