Exceptional player: D-5 swingweight, X-flex, 37 1/2", 35* loft, super straight hickory shaft topped with a rough-side-out buffalo leather grip.  Head and grip tight.  Tournament proven club.Of course, Tom Stewart is considered the best cleekmaker of the 20th Century, forging his classic designs out of St. Andrews, Scotland.  This mashie is also stamped for "A.W. Butchart" and has the desirable "RTJ" stamp that meant this was the head shape preferred by Bobby Jones, who played mostly Stewart irons.Jones had amateur status and having his name on clubs could prove problematical (as it had for Francis Ouimet), so Jones had his lawyers put a stop to the Stewart RTJs; hence, RTJs are hard to find vs. ordinary Tom Stewart clubs---and they feature Tom Stewart's best head shapes.
