Pre-World War I putting cleek
Maker:
R H Henrit
, Arbroath / Queensland Date: 1912
An original condition R H Henrit putter from the Elliot golf links in Arbroath.
It has an enclosed square dot pattern on the face and the reverse is stamped “R Henrit Arbroath” in oval form, “Putting Cleek” and “Warranted Hand Forged”. The putting cleek is a putter but was sometimes so called to emphasise the heavier head and greter degree of loft used to combat the rougher greens of the early 20th century.
The hickory shaft is straight and the sheepskin grip original. An attractive display club just as well suited to hickory play.
Price $190.00 Reference: PUT456
