About the Item
Antique Long Nose Golf Club, McEwan Of Musselburgh.
A fine long nose golf club, spoon by McEwan of Musselburgh. This club has a wonderful and graceful shape, only the like found on clubs you see from the best club makers such as H. Philp and R. Forgan. This great looking club has a head made from fruit wood with lead weight to the rear and the traditional horn slip along the leading edge of the sole with a full brass sole plate. The polished head is stamped 'McEwan', the shaft of hickory with a leather grip on listing. The scare head joint with good whipping. This is a very nice example of a McEwan long nose golf club from the 1870's in excellent condition and from one of the great club makers.
Approximate head size:-
a = 8cm
b = 3cm
c = 4cm
The early clubs are made with long slender shallow-faced heads with an ash or hickory shaft glued to the head by means of a splice or scare joint. This joint is then further strengthened by whipping with a pitched thread. All beautifully hand made by craftsmen of the time.

Antique Golf Club Walking Stick, Sunday Club.
Located in Oxfordshire, GB
Antique Sunday Club, Golf Club Walking Stick.
A desirable walking cane with the handle in the shape of a left-handed longnose styled golf club head. The gentleman's walking stick has a persimmon socket head handle with a pegged horn insert and a lead weight to the rear. The crown of the club head stamped with the 'plume of feathers' and a 'Lion' cleek mark. It is with hickory shaft with black and white hosel bands and a brass ferrule at the end.
The ban on golfing on the Sabbath, Sunday, had the effect of the club makers producing walking sticks for canny golfers. They fashioned the canes with a golf club head as a handle and they became known as 'Sunday Clubs' or 'Sabbath sticks'. It is said that on the Sabbath a Sunday Club owner, when nobody was looking, could still enjoy a crafty putt or swing.
