The man behind the flat cap.
Gordon 'Gordie' McAllister is our fictional Scottish golfer: 67, a retired surgeon and a former three-handicapper. These days he plays off 12, with a new hip, a stiff back and single figures still firmly in his sights.
Every club should earn its place.
Gordie's approach to his bag is simple: keep the clubs you trust and question the ones you don't. He uses BuildMy14 to think through the choices. Try it for your own game and get a brand-neutral starting bag, with a reason for every slot.
Ten questions. Around 2–3 minutes. No account or launch monitor needed.
