There is no such article to merge to! Obviously you mean simply move to obsolete golf clubs and then expand with others. Why not be WP:BOLD and just do it? _wjemather^bigissue 15:21, 7 July 2009 (UTC)

actually i would incourage just mergeing the content to their respective articles.Username 1 (talk) 18:07, 9 July 2009 (UTC)

What? Sorry, but that makes no sense. Maybe it would have been better to create a full article in userspace in advance and have someone give it the once over before overlaying it. You appear to have have rewritten it in an ad hoc fashion and introduced a myriad of factual inaccuracies in the process. For example, modern clubs generally cannot be directly compared to clubs from the early 19th century, nor did Archibald Barrie invert the set of irons, perhaps just a mashie-niblick. _wjemather^bigissue 18:22, 9 July 2009 (UTC)

notable enough

Niblick and Mashie appeared in this weeks Wall Street Journal crossword . That's notable enough for me, removing tag. NE Ent 15:42, 24 August 2014 (UTC)

Was the "spoon" a 3 wood or a 5 wood? Our articles contradict each other.

A user has e-mailed me saying that his father was a keen golfer and "[in] discussions with fellow members during the mid-1960's about club numbering[,] My father always took the position that the 3-wood was the replacement of the 'brassie' and that the 5-wood was the 'spoon'."
