A beautiful club in very good condition.

The 'Crown' stamp was in use from 1901 to 1908 and indicates that Forgan made clubs for King Edward.
Robert Forgan is one of the most famous club makers, and started working for his uncle Hugh Philp in 1852. Philp was renowned as one of the best wooden club makers around. When Philp died in 1856 Forgan took over the business. Many of the other great club makers such as Auchterlonie and Anderson learned their trade with Forgan before setting up on their own.
