They're cast heads. I thought all those MacGregors were forged. That's why they are so cheap. Still they look good. The kind of set an old guy with Jack Love would get and put in a custom-made mahogany rack and hang it above the fireplace in his den.

Nice but a bit pricey. There are plenty of old macgregor and wilson blades around in great nick. They don't have a lot of wear often because no one can hit them (amatuers) worth a damn, so they only stay in the bag a round or two.
I have a set of PGF Tour Classic blades that are like jewelry, and are so beautiful they bring a tear to the eye. They are over twenty years old and are lucky if they have five rounds on them.

I bought a set of Wilson FG 17's for $20 at a yard sale held by a retired guy who works at the pro shop of a local private club. The heads are gorgeous. I would play them if it wouldn't cost $22 per head to pull the original shafts that Wilson, in its infinite wisdom, installed with a freaking industrial swedge with 8 tons of pressure seating the crimped end of each shaft quite snugly into the hosel. I think I payed too much.
