This Sunday stick has a hand-carved handle decorated with intricate marquetry detailing which extends down the shaft, perfect for use as a putter. 

'Sunday sticks were manufactured because of the ban on golfing on the Sabbath, Sunday. They fashioned the canes with a golf club head as a handle and they became known as 'Sunday Clubs' or 'Sabbath sticks'. It is said that on the Sabbath a Sunday Club owner, when nobody was looking, could still enjoy a crafty putt or swing.'

Under the handle is a riveted aperture for the addition of a tassel or wrist strap. 

Strong pine shaft with a metal ferrule. 

An attractive stick, perfect for use or a collector.

Measurements:
Length - 91.5cm 
Diameter of the handle - 4.4cm
Diameter of the shaft under the handle - 2.3cm
Weight - 213g

 

Very good condition with a few marks consistent with age.
