Oldest golf keepsake

[ken_h]

What is your oldest golf keepsake? I have a ping ball that I found when I was first taking up the game 25ish years ago that I never played because I thought it looked cool, and I've held on to it ever since.

I've got some hickory shafted clubs from the 1930's that belonged to my wife's grandfather. Pretty cool.

My dad's J. C. Higgins clubs. They don't have "lines" on the irons, they have "dimples" like on balls. I think they have fiberglass shafts. The grips are leather wrapped and in pretty sad shape. I'm not sure what the year of manufacture is but I think he bought them "used".

The head to my first driver, snapped clean at the hosel one morning and it has been a nice paperweight ever since

I got this when it came out in 1978 I think, and Watson happened to be doing a book signing it at The Jones Store, where my mom worked as a fashion artist at the time. So she took the book to work and stood in line and had him sign it for me. I had just gotten my first birdie shortly before so she mentioned that to him. The cover's a little beat up but the book itself is still in good shape.

That's awesome!
