I inherited an old putter a little while after my Grandfather died. Don't know too much about it except it says Putter on the sole with the picture of a small bird, that I can only describe as a wren or similar. On the back it says Made in Scotland. The underneath this it says to the left Pinfinder & to the right A Rangefinder product.
All I can so far find out is that its likely to be associated somehow with Ben Sayers as they apparently used the picture of a small bird on their clubs
I'd really love to know more about this club & when its likely to have been made & where exactly its likely to have been made.
Not tried out this putter on a course yet, somehow I seem to be waiting for the right moment to do so.

You got me working hard today! What about this website?

Click on the image. Is this the bird on your putter? If so your putter could be worth a few quid!

Very similar, but not the same. Mine has a steel shaft, but a leather grip. Not sure whether it originally had a steel shaft or not, though I think it did, as everything looks original.
The bird is not disimilar, though even more stialised than even that one. There is a more muscleback look the putter about too.
Am doing some more seaching myself to see if I can come up with anything.
bare with me.
