Beautiful Ping Scottsdale 1A putter. Club shows very little actual wear. Just a few scant bag and play marks. Faces are very clean. Very nice dark patina throughout. Sole states, "PING BY KARSTEN, BOX 1345 SCOTTSDALE, ARIZ., PAT. PEND." This sole is a bit grainy due to the casting and the letters are a little hard to make out at first glance. All the letters are there however and readable. Original Scottsdale putters are known for their gr...ainy castings in the cavities and on the soles. Some came out with very crisp lettering, but a fair amount have grainy surfaces where the lettering is. I took multiple pictures of the sole as the lettering was hard to capture. Original chrome plated shaft is still shiny showing no real wear or problems of any type. First step at 9 1/2 inches above club head. Additional steps at 3 1/4 inches. This shaft has a bend which I believe makes it a left handed putter. These heads are true duplex heads as the loft on both faces is the exact same. Some of these putters did come with straight shafts and those could easily be used either right or left handed. If you played this putter right handed the club head would be in front of the shaft. If you play it left handed, it is a traditional wry necked design with the club head being behind the shaft. Putting Man Pro Only grip is original and still very pliable. Butt of grip intact states "Traction Action, Golf Pride, Made in USA." Original grip collar still intact. I've not seen a better conditional original grip on one of these 55 year old Scottsdale putters. Length at 35 inches. Hard to find a nicer All original 1A Scottsdale.
