About the Item
Long Nose Scared Head McEwan Golf Club, Musselburgh.
An elegant, early scared head (or "scare joint") long nose golf club by McEwan of Musselburgh, one of the earliest and most respected families of clubmakers in golf history. This club has a wonderful and graceful shape with a lead weight to the rear and the traditional horn slip along the leading edge of the sole, the polished dark-stained head is stamped 'McEwan, R.H.B' and has a curved lofted face. The original hickory shaft with full-length sheep skin grip with thick underlisting. This is a very nice example of a scared head golf club from the 1870's in great original condition. Just below the whipping on the grip can be found the name of a previous owner 'R.H. BLAIKIE'. The shaft with extra whipping along it's length. Long nose clubs by McEwan are highly collectible and valued for their craftsmanship.
Approximate head size:-
a = 9.5cm
b = 3cm
c = 5cm
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.

Early Golf Club, Iron By Willie Wilson of St Andrews.
A rare hand forged blacksmith-made wrought iron Victorian golf club cleek by Willie Wilson of St Andrews. The smooth faced lofting iron is heavy weighted, hickory shafted with crisp nicking to the top of the hosel where it meets the shaft.
