CLICK HERE for to read an article that appeared in Golf World on the Calamity Jane - the most famous putter in golf history.
Bobby Jones began putting with his original Calamity Jane after a friendly round at the Nassau CC on Long Island before competing in the 1923 U.S. Open. On the 18th green, Jim Maiden, the brother of Stewart Maiden (Jones’ teacher) heard Jones complain about his putting, and handed him a putter he had named for the famous female sharpshooter from the Old West. With his first stroke Jones holed a 30-foot putt. Jones kept the putter in the bag to win the U.S. Open days later.

Being an explosive personality, Jones gave his putter some “bad moments” and the shaft almost split several times. He applied three whipping applications around the Hickory shaft to firm it up. Our replica is exact, including the three whipping points Jones applied to his putter. Our Calamity Jane putter is shafted with an authentic Hickory shaft, and comes complete with a hand-wrapped leather grip ready for play.
This putter is handmade from start to finish and completely playable with the modern golf ball. This putter has been approved for play in hickory events by the Society of Hickory Golfers
