A Spalding Percussion Weighted Kro-Flite Persimmon 1 Wood owned and certainly used by golfing pioneer Bobby T. Jones Jr. This is one of a set of four matched Bobby Jones golf clubs that were custom-built for Jones. Bobby was an early visionary regarding club-building and constantly worked with companies to create the absolute best golfing tools available. This 1 wood comes with photographic documentation showing that this club was, in fact, mailed to Jones by Spalding for testing purposes.
