About the Item
Antique Scared Head Bulger Style Driver.
An elegant scared head persimmon wood driver by Schlottman. This great looking club has a polished club head, lead weight to the rear and the traditional insert along the leading edge of the sole, head is stamped 'G. Schlottman Special' as is the original hickory shaft. The shaft fitted with a later full-length leather grip with underlisting.
This is a very nice example of a scared head golf club from the 1880's in excellent condition.
The measurements of the club are;
Length 109 cm
Width of face 6 cm
Depth of face 3.4 cm
The early clubs are made with a 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.
