Extensive Makeover Changes Look of Golf, But Not Its Allure

It's interesting to see what has happened to golf over the years. I can remember, for example, the time when the only clubs you needed to carry in the golf shop were Spalding, Wilson & McGregor. Those three represented 95 percent of the golf club market. They came in stiff, regular, a shaft (senior) and ladies. A set of woods came with 1, 2, 3 & 4. The 2-wood went into the garage until it was time to get rid of the rest of the set. The irons were 2 through 9 plus a pitching wedge. The only other wedge you carried was a sand wedge. Now you have to have a 'gap wedge' and a 'hybrid' to replace the 2 and/or 3 iron.
