This is just an excellent example of what a NEW Forgan wood would have looked like in the era! The "Crown" cleekmark was in use from 1901-1908 so this club has survived over 100 years and has perhaps never hit a ball...amazing!Of course, Robert Forgan was considered the #1 maker of wooden head clubs, just as Tom Stewart is considered the #1 iron head maker (cleekmaker), and just as Stewart was from St. Andrews, Scotland, so, too, was Robert Forgan---in fact, his shop was along the 18th fairway of the Old Course, next to the Tom Morris golf shop, and still has the "Forgan" name in the concrete walkway at the entrance to the building (which now houses retail clothing).This driver has "Lady" stamped on the sole and is 43" in length with six degrees of loft, a B-3 swingweight, and a fairly stiff shaft! With these specs, no wonder it was never played! Great collectible hickory shafted Forgan---I love the fact it is all original, and so nice....!
