Description
1940's Ben Hogan Tournament Used Putter. Although Hogan was known as one of the greatest drivers in the game's history, the same was never said about his putting, and it was a skill upon which he worked feverishly in an attempt to improve. To be fair, most of his problems with the short game resulted from damage to one of his eyes suffered in a 1949 automobile accident, well after he made use of this incredible "MacGregor Spur Putter," considered the state of the art club around the time of the Second World War. The thirty-four inch club was constructed to Hogan's exact specifications, and his "B.H." initials are factory-stamped into the club's head, a modification that only would be found on his personally owned models. Original grip, in fine condition, is likewise present. Consigned by a former staffer at Fort Worth, Texas' Colonial Country Club, Hogan's home course, who acquired the club in person from Hogan.Auction Info
