Description
This is an early smooth face cleek type iron by Wm Gibson. His Star mark is on the head. It was retailed by C. Davidson, Musselburgh. W. & C. Davidson apprenticed with D. McEwan in Musselburgh until 1895 when they opened their own shop. This mark is C. Davidson only. The face of the blade is approx 3 1/2" across. The C. DAVIDSON, MUSSELBURGH oval mark is very readable. The Star is Gibson's only marking on the club. The DAVIDSON name is also very bold on the shaft just below the grip. The head has a slight wiggle to the shaft that has a very slight bow. The period leather grip with rough side out is not original. The club is 39 3/4" long to the heel of the blade. It has a loft of 17* and has a swing weight of D-2. The sole has very few signs of play.A very nice early club with the markings from two distinguished early Scottish golf families. Buy with confidence.
