I was talking to my father a ways back about golf. He used to play before he had a catastrophic back injury in 83.
When I was in my early teens, say 1990, he gave me his clubs to smack around a course with my buddies. Wooden woods, irons had wooden shafts, etc. Plus two putters.
I told him I bought some new clubs and he was indignant! How could I NOT use his old clubs? Well, They're old and rusty I explained. And if not rusty the woods were actually wood!
Anyway I went on to explain I was still looking for a good putter as I don't really like the one I have all that much.
Of course he wanted me to use his old putters.
I just went and dug them out of the attic and I'm curious if you guys know anything at all about them?
Both are made by Spalding and are marked 'Designed by T.P. Mills' and the grips are logo'd 'TPM'
Both are black
One has a cross-hair on the face made up oif small white dots and has "t.p.m. 3" on the face.
The second has only "t.p.m." and under that "tour Series" on the face and on the bottom has the number '15' under a Spaulding logo.
One of the grips just completely crumbled off when I gave it a little twist but the other about as close to good condiition as clubs this old will get. Smooth and crackly
Anyway, I googled TP Mills and found they make putters.
Just curious if anyone would know anything about these? I'm thinking about regripping the one that crumbled and giving it a shot out there, what'd'ya think?
