1920 George Nicoll Precision Irons owned by David Scott Chisholm - Full Set
George Nicoll was a blacksmith by trade, and in the 1880's he started making hand forged irons. Well known golfers such as Henry Cotton, Brian Huggett, Dai Rees, and Vivien Saunders used his clubs. The Nicoll family distributed the clubs worldwide until 1982, owned now by St Andrews Golf Company.
