Woods are 1,2,3. Irons are putter, 2,4,5,7,8, & 9. The 8 does appear a little different than the others, however when you study the obvious wooden shaft and the aging of the club head, one can see that this club could have easily fallen into the Bobby Jones era of golf. What's even more different with the 8 is the signature on the under side of the club head bearing the name Wm. Cunningham. Other engravings read Chromium Plated and Reg-No. 7651.By comparison the putter and the #8 club both have a smooth grip however the putter has "Grip Rite" running in line with the club shaft. The ferrule on the irons is approximately 1/16 of an inch separated from the top of the connection with the club head. I noticed this was common on all of the irons. When I questioned a local golf repair person he indicated that this was not uncommon with clubs that are old.....possibly as a result of temperature change or how the clubs were stored. This is something that can be fixed by a person who repairs clubs. Since my Dad was born in 1910, he probably purchased these clubs new. I personally, even though I was the only child,  never used them but they remained in our family up until when I finally decided they needed to be shared with someone else who has a greater appreciation for golf clubs of the Bobby Jones times. The last set of clubs used by Dad were a nice set of Ping clubs. Now those I did get a chance to use  in a few rounds of golf, but eventually a fell back on my own personal set of clubs.. Like my Dad I'm now at that point in life where I'm entitled to tea off from the seniors section. After a few medical set backs these past several years I've decided to take a few lessons, make a few needed adjustments and just feel thankful that I might just have a couple  more years left in me. Maybe I'll be lucky enough to finally get that "Hole-In-One".  FOUR !!!!!!!
