I have only been playing Golf now for almost 3 years, and I can't say that my experience would be of much input.
However, I am curious to see what all the other members can contribute. I know many of you have been playing for quite some time, and somewhere in you memory banks must lie a product or an event that you would like to see make a comeback.
Even if it could never come back, I think it would be great to hear about some of the things I missed.
FJ Classics!
I kind of miss the sound of metal spikes on concrete. As much as I love the new plastic spikes, I thought the sound of metal spikes was cool. But not cool enough to want to use them again.
Nice thread.

Although I never used one, I wish the caddy would make a comeback. Nothing beats walking, but I hate lugging my clubs around. I have a push cart, but I don't really like it.

I have never played with metal spikes or a driver that is less then 300cc for that matter, but I do agree that it sounds pretty cool to hear the metal spikes on concrete.

Metal spikes has my vote too :-)
what do i miss, nuthin', it just keeps gettin' better and better for me.
That first eagle. Great experience as it was a chip in
METAL SPIKES! Nothing grips the turf like them. Granted the plastic ones are more comfy, but you play golf to score better, not be comfortable. Add to it, I miss persimmon woods and balata covered wound balls as you really had to strike it well to get the ball to behave.
i miss shell's wonderful world of golf...fortuantely they have re-runs on now and again.
I wish they'd put them on DVD, along with the Playing Lessons with the Pros!

I guess that I am going to miss being able to participate in the golf programs I have been in over the years because of my age--especially the First Tee. I wish I could have been involved more earlier (as a student/player) rather than later... Missed out some great opportunities, even thought I still got a lot!

There are still many caddy programs in my part of the country at least, especially at private country clubs, such as the one where I caddy. Were you able to get a caddy almost anywhere?
