ANTIQUE HICKORY GOLF CLUBS - for the serious collector and hickory player.

Welcome to Antique Hickory Golf Clubs, specialists in vintage golf clubs, books and memorabilia including golf art, golf balls and other interesting items associated with the game from years gone by.

Based in Perthshire, Scotland and having St. Andrews 'the home of golf' nearby enables us to source beautiful and interesting Vintage Woods, Irons, and Putters  produced from around the mid 1800's to the early 1930's by famous club makers such as Tom Stewart,  Robert Forgan, Tom Morris, Willie Park, Robert Simpson, George Nicol and William Gibson to name just a few. This period brought about many design changes to hickory clubs which now makes collecting these sought after items even more interesting and desirable for both the serious collector and the beginner.
