We took a minute to peruse some classic Titleist blades when all of a sudden I hear “neat, check out those old Hogans…”Īs soon as he said it, the same clubs jumped out at me from the bottom rack. Our next stop was to swing over to the demo area to hit some clubs, however, as we meandered down our last row, we approached what was essentially a rat’s nest of used clubs. Jon and I probably could have been working a little harder to spread the DRH name, but what’re you gonna do? A gear nerd is going to do what a gear nerd does. So at this point, we’ve pretty much walked around the whole thing and seen every pair of khaki and grey pants there were to see. And like any good flea market, you just have to be diligent and seek out the hidden gems. That said, it was fun to catch up with some friends like Sub 70 Golf and the Tour Edge guys. As expected, it was bizarre as ever, totally washed out by Adidas and Under Armour clothes, and generally just a lot of stuff to sort through. It so happened my schedule was able to accommodate it so I went. I hadn’t been to the show in about 7 years, however, both Kris McEwen (from That Range Life – A Show Sometimes About Golf) and our own Jon Heise expressed interest and said I should go.
Stephens Convention Center in Rosemont, IL – a town wedged in between O’Hare and the actual city of Chicago.
Let me tell you a small story about how I recently found my new favorite clubs – a set of 1973 Ben Hogan Apex irons…Įvery year there’s a giant golf show at the Donald E.
