Jack Nicklaus Golf Clubs and Golf Equipment
For a man who has achieved so much in golf, and who has shaped the current position of professional golf like no other, Jack Nicklaus is a remarkably humble man. As he stood on the famous Swilken Bridge at St.
The Driver: Nicklaus Air Max 9 degree
Although he may have began his career playing with the old style wooden headed clubs, Nicklaus was one of the great innovators of golf, adapting his game to suit new equipment and technology as it became available.
Nicklaus IronMax HiMax Hybrid 2
What is interesting in checking this bag from six years ago is the fact that Nicklaus was one of the first golfers to use the Hybrid club. Although the rest of his bag may be viewed as being a conventional set, the use of the Hi Max Hybrid 2 shows that Nicklaus wasn’t averse to pushing the boundaries of his game when required.

In the 80s he went to the McGregor VIP cavity back irons. All these young kids need to go try to hit the VIP blade shown above with its tiny head and heavy, stiff shaft.

According to his first autobiography, "The Greatest Game of All; My Life in Golf", he got his first set of Macgregor Tommy Armour woods and Silver Scot irons at the age of 13. He stayed with Tommy Armour MacGregors until, as he says, he started designing clubs for MacGregor. This would, I believe, have been the VIP model coming out in 1967.

In a similar vein, I remember reading that some of his shafts were tested from clubs which he used in his prime and were found to be surprisingly weak. I think they were quoted as being 'somewhere in the regular-flex range' rather than the very stiff frequency that was expected.

I used to be a very close watcher of the clubs Jack used from prime to his older age. Most of the years he used MacGregor irons and then later he acquired his own golf company and still used irons that were forged through MacGregor and with the infamous grinds by the legendary DON WHITE of MacGregor.

Why does the amount of majors even really matter? I mean seriously. Maybe I am crazy but the game is so much more competitive now than it ever was in the 60's and 70's even the 80's. If you read the book "Tales from Q school" it even speaks volumes to that.

Why is Vijay's blade iron bent?
According to his caddie, Vijay has his Mizuno MP-4 prototype blade irons bent weak because he doesn’t like offset, and weakening the loft of the irons helps reduce offset. That’s why his 6-iron is stamped with a “7,” his 7 stamped with an “8,” and so forth.
