We at Bunkers Paradise understand that golf fans appreciate and remember their first driver, iron set or favorite putter for decades. We also know that some of the greatest clubs of all time came long before the days of adjustable drivers, titanium clubheads or square grooves. We tee-up our first installment of naming the greatest golf clubs of all time by remembering some of the greatest drivers ever. Comment below and tell us which drivers should have made the list.
In , a young clubmaker named Gary Adams came up what very well may be the most influential and monumental piece of golf club technology in the history of the game: the steel-headed driver. In Ron Streck became the first pro to win with the Taylor Made Pittsburgh Persimmon, paving the way for future club designs and professionals all around the world.
When your golf club bears the name of arguably the greatest player of his generation, then it better perform on all cylinders. The Ben Hogan Apex persimmon drivers not only performed admirably, but they also because one of the best-selling drivers of all time. One of the more underrated drivers in golf history in my opinion. The Classic XL Custom driver has one of the deepest faces of any driver ever produced, not only by Cleveland Golf, but by any other golf club makers.
It has a soft and forgiving face and produces some outstanding distance that is hard to beat. Not only does this golf club perform on the course, it is one of the best looking golf clubs to ever hit the market. The Eye 2 driver was one of the most popular on the pro circuit throughout the 80s and into the 90s.
When it comes to a classic golf driver, most fans will immediately reference the outstanding persimmon PowerBilt Citation series. Players of all abilities between the s and s — more than 6 0 years — relied on the consistent distance and accuracy the Citation driver provided. PowerBilt golf clubs continue strong to this day, but they may never produce a more popular and historic golf club than their original Citation. It is by far one of the most well-known golf clubs in the history of the game, and when the Callaway Big Bertha driver hit store shelves in , it was also the biggest driver the game had ever seen.
Mizuno Golf has been known for their irons over the years, which is why it is no surprise they made the list of the best irons from the past 10 years. The JPX irons are another forged option that appeared in this decade, though they went in the opposite direction of Callaway Golf by designing a relatively large clubhead and focusing on feel. The boron supports the clubface, allowing you to swing faster and hit it further with more consistency. Two companies have stood out when it comes to the best golf wedges : Cleveland and Titleist Golf.
With both companies leading the way in wedge innovation, you have plenty of grinds, lofts and bounces to choose from. The Cleveland RTX wedge drilled in on a factor not typically advertised when it comes to wedges -- forgiveness. Feel is very important when it comes to wedges, so having confidence over the ball was a big differentiating factor for Cleveland Golf. They also continued to produce wedges designed to get out of bunkers easily; the RTX wedges have large, rough grooves just for that purpose.
The Vokey SM6 wedge design focused on both performance and technical aspects. Titleist wedges , no matter the generation, typically lead the pack in maximizing spin; this allows you to play a variety of shots around the green. The SM6 wedge series also focused on distance gapping, ensuring you have every shot -- and distance -- covered.
The best golf putters of the decade have truly stood the test of time. While putter designs advance each year, putters are the one golf club that can still be effective decades later. That being said, there are still some classic putters whose designs have been significantly improved.
Below are some of the best putters of all time, not just of the decade. The TaylorMade Spider putter series is here to stay. Several Tour players can be seen playing and winning with these TaylorMade putters. I remember them releasing the J model and it just couldn't keep up with the OG.

Booker Posted August 10, Cwebb Posted August 10, Pricing may vary. The details: The red-hot ATI face the material was originally developed for military applications, including tank and body armor features multi-dimensional stability for a tighter spin range between shots hit away from the center of percussion. Other improvements include an aerodynamic package that reduces drag for speed and carefully positioned weights to optimize launch.
