As many of you who are active in hickory golf already know our good friend Mike Just, the owner of Louisville Golf, passed away recently after a long and courageous battle with cancer. Mike was a talented craftsman when it came to working with wood and working on clubs. Mike also played in numerous hickory events including pre 1900 gutty ball events and post 1900 hickory events. He carried on his personal life and his business “In The Spirit of the Game”. While not a huge collector of antique clubs, Mike enjoyed clubs from his home town of Louisville, Ky. Mike’s family recently entrusted me with his collection and I will offering it on eBay in the coming weeks. There should be a little something for hickory players and collectors alike so please check back often. This listing is for an antique vintage set of 10 Hillerich&Bradsby Designed By Stewart Maiden irons. Stewart was a club designer and mentor to the great Bobby Jones. Included in this 10 iron set with play specs (all are dot face scoring) are a 1 Iron 39 1/4" 17* loft, C 6 swingweight, 2 Iron 38 3/4" 23* C 6, 3 Iron 38 1/4" 28* C 5, 4 Iron 37 3/4" 32* C 7, 5 Iron 37 1/4" 36* C 7, 6 Iron 36 3/4" 40* C 4, 7 Iron 36 1/4" 44* C 6, 8 Iron (Wide Flanged Sand Wedge) 35 3/4" 55* C 9, 9 Iron (Chipper) 34 1/4" 26* B 4, 10 (Putter) 33 3/4" B 6. The 2-10 are matching Reg No EM-3 and the 1 Iron is a Reg No EM-2. The stainless steel heads are clean and not all rusted or pitted. They do have the expected minor play nicks and dings along with some discoloration. Please look at the zoom pictures for a better idea of condition. The shafts are all the original marked B-Bow hickories that have a flat side. All are straight and I see no cracks in any of the shafts but several do have play at the hosels. All hickory shaft irons should be reset prior to play. The grips are the original long leather wraps and they are in good vintage condition. They do have the white centered butt caps and you can still read the iron numbers on some of the butt caps. This is a very hard to find set and includes the highly desirable 8 flanged niblick/sand wedge. Mike Just used the niblick and 9 chipper/jigger as the models for two of the reproduction clubs that are currently in the Louisville Golf line. A fine collectible with play potential. Shipping for this item is calculated via Priority Mail and based on an 12 pound box. The further you are from me in NC the more shipping will be. That is the way carriers charge. International shipping will also be calculated and will be much higher. In accordance with the current Ebay policy I am only allowed to state that I accept payment via Paypal. NC residents must add 7.5% sales tax.
