Identifying this putter help

[Mattjones12291]

Hi all.

New to the forum but really looking forward to joining in the discussions with you all

Firstly, apologies if this is the wrong section.

I have recently been cleaning up out my grandfathers belongings and come across this old putter.

Just trying to identify what brand or what it is jhst to know really. So hopefully somebody will know.

Thanks guys

I'm sorry, appears the pictures didn't upload as they are too large

Looks like a Bullseye style putter, I don't recognise the brand, and to be honest I don't think it looks like it would be terribly valuable or collectible. Putters of that shape used to be widely commonly available from a wide variety of outlets.

@Crow is your man on this one. Look for a thread called vintage golf as you may get better luck posting this in that topic.

Thanks for the reply guys. Wouldn't be looking to sell it. Just a curiosity

Surprised it hasn't got BCC stamped on the bottom Brighton County Council

You mean Brighton and Hove City Council?

Come on now Steve.

It's a Golden Goose style putter, although most people refer to them as the later copy; the Bullseye.

Not sure from the picture but it looks to be some sort of stainless metal rather than brass.

I don't recognise the markings at all and suspect it was either a budget end putter or one for putting greens etc. Is there any wording on the shaft or grip?

It could date anywhere from the 1960s through to the 1990s.

If it putts well, use it.
