Pinseeker was founded as R&M Golf in the early '70s near Monterrey (Pacific Grove), CA., by John Riley and Jim Murray.
The name was changed to Pinseeker in 1975.
The Pinseeker metal golf clubs you are showing were the first stainless steel "woods" (patented by John Riley) though Taylor Made was the first to successfully market them, and Pinseeker was a pioneer (along with Ping) in investment casting metal irons instead of using forging, persimmon, or wood laminates. They offered many models, from forged and cast blades to persimmon and graphite headed woods to one of the first commercially available long putters to hollow headed irons.
John Riley, SR., one of England’s top amateur players, came to America in 1960 and began a career in golf equipment. Eventually it would encompass eleven examples of his revolutionary thinking.
AFTER starting his manufacturing career with Ping, John went on to form a company in the early 1970's that would evolve into the Lynx Golf Company. There he designed a celebrated classic- The Lynx Master Model.
THEN, approx. 1975, onto another startup company, John Riley, SR. founded Pinseeker. During this period he designed and patented the first metal wood. A revolutionary design with radical technology that has forever changed the game of golf.
IN 1980, Riley Golf Company was formed as a family business, bringing on the next generation of club designers and revolutionizing golf club fitting.
The search for the game improvement led to John Riley JR. to use his engineering background to develop the first method of combining the personal computer with the club fitting process in 1982.
Today Riley Golf has refined this design and fitting heritage into products like the uniquely Energy Irons and Hybrids and services like -Personal Golf - their way of delivering the best possible club to help your game.

Review: "For the money these are the best irons available and maybe the best period! In early 2006 I demoed a lot of clubs over a 3 month period, Pinseekers seemed to fit me and, to my amazement, they felt and performed better than any other club I'd tried. Needless to say I bought them. Not only did I save a boatload of money, it's been a year and I couldn't be happier. I still occasionally try out the big name models, but for me, the Pinseekers are better. With the Winn grips they feel great. The ball shoots off the sweet spot like a rocket with a consistent high loft. I am 54 years old and hit the 7 iron 170, the 6 iron 190, the 5 iron 200. These clubs will compete with any model out there. Recently I bought the company's Wedges and love them as well."
