Frank Hoy spoon
Maker:
Frank Hoy
, Strathpeffer Date: 1924
A spoon from the long serving Strathpeffer professional, Frank Hoy. 39" long, the shaft has a slight right to left bend which militates against it being used for play. There is also a hairline crack in the hosel (not visible because the whipping covers it) which would probably survive a well-hit shot but any of the edge or shanked would see the end of the club.
The attractively banded persimmon head is protected by a pyralin slip and a full brass soleplate secured by six screws. Frank Hoy Special in an oval is picked out in gold paint.
The black leather grip is probably original.
Price $140.00 Reference: S279
