Robert Simpson Long Nose Club w/ Head Stamp & Lambskin Grip
Robert Simpson is one of the greatest club makers of all time. He arrived in Carnoustie in 1883 to take up the position of professional at the Dalhousie Golf Club, and, as well as attending to the needs of the members, was encouraged by the Club to further his activity in club making. This decision unleashed the talents of the most prolific, inventive, and artistic club maker known. His design and manufacturing in his Carnoustie workshop changed the face of club making for all time. It is 38” from heel to top of the grip, 1 1/4 thick, 3 1/2" long head. Please note the 1 ½” crack to the head, please see photos. This piece will come with a signed letter from Historian Bob Denney of the PGA, proclaiming that this item comes from their collection.
