I have played everything over the years from butter knife blades to cavity back graphite shafted clubs. It seems to me, if you can get you right forearm on plane you can hit anything. I currently play a 1956 set of Spalding "syncrodyned" irons--2 thru 9. I did bore them out and install 6.5 rifle shafts. they are the softest irons I have ever played. I am not gifted by any means, but playing the blades has only helped my game.

Hi brobert,
I also started with syncro-"Topflite" dished-back blades circa '50.These were underrated,advanced blades.
I retired them when distance became an overriding issue.
I tried delofting the 'Flites but it destroyed their look and created a "digger" front edge.( I reset them) The shafts were 3/4 " shorter than our current models.Also destroying perfect original slip-on leathers in order to lengthen the shafts was an esthetic no-go for me.I generally don't mess with Classic's,but
I wish I had the vision ,as you did,boring the hosel to suit Rifle shafts,because those heads are that terrific.
I strongly feel yours will play level to most current blades.

After playing "in the desert" for several years with a slew of cavity's(Burners,Armours,Pings)I stumbled across a complete set of mint Macgregor MUIRFIELDS 20th,including Persimmon woods.
I died and went to Heaven. Haven't looked at another since.The Best!

Enjoy!
