Description
This is a smooth face cleek type iron by Robert Condie, St. Andrews. The fern leaf mark was an early mark used by Condie. This club was retailed by D. McEwan, Musselburgh. The McEwans made excellent wooden clubs for six generations from the late 1700s until the early 1930s. Most of the iron clubs that they sold in their shop came from prominent makers, Condie being one.
The club is 39" long from the tip of the shaft to the bottom of the head. The thick hosel is 3 1/4" long from the top of the blade to the top of the hosel. The loft measures 20*. The head is not fully tight to shaft. There no markings on the shaft and the grip is a period type wrap. There is a 1 3/8" whipping wrap just above the hosel, presumably for added shaft strength.
The shaft looks straight. This might be a gutty play club with a bit of effort. Buy with confidence.
