The Spalding Smooth Face Hand Forged Rut Iron - Left Handed - Shaft Stamp
Before the 1900's, golf courses were sharing their fairways with the wagons, carts, people, and animals of the day. Horse drawn wagons would carve through the land leaving tracks and ruts that proved extremely difficult to advance the ball out of. Enter the Rut Iron. The Rut Iron, with its narrow face and taller topline, was used to play a ball out of depressions left by the cartwheels or holes and trenches caused by other fair use. The Rut Iron is a true classic and a great choice for the classic club enthusiast. Offered here is a left handed rut iron in excellent condition. It measures 38" to the heel and 4 1/4" from the hosel to the heel.
