About the Item
Long Nose Scared Head Putter By Archie Simpson, Carnoustie.
An elegant, scared head (or "scare joint") long nose golf club by Archie Simpson of Carnoustie. This long nose putter is with a lead weight to the rear and the traditional horn slip along the leading edge of the sole, the polished light-stained Beech-wood head is stamped 'Arch Simpson'. The original hickory shaft stamped with Simpson's details and is with a period sheep skin leather grip. Archibald Simpson was an Scottish-American professional golfer and was a renowned club maker and golf course designer.
Long nose clubs are highly collectible and valued for their craftsmanship.
Approximate head size:-
a = 8.4cm
b = 3cm
c = 5.2cm
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 is an early method of joining the wooden head to the shaft by overlapping them diagonally and securing with glue which is then further strengthened by whipping with a pitched thread. All beautifully hand made by craftsmen of the time.
