Makers of fine Indian clubs
All our clubs have been turned in our Yorkshire workshop using solid kiln dried French Beech, by our highly skilled craftsmen. Our clubs are hand sanded for a fine quality finish, we also apply a coat of oil to give a natural smooth feel which also enriches and protect the timber. The clubs are perfectly balanced for smooth, easy-flowing club swinging.
Testimonials
James Scott
Tom is certainly a master of his craft with a great energy for coaching. His wealth of experience shines through in his teaching, relaying principles and techniques clearly, but without dogma. He makes training fun and the progression is always logical and obviously well thought out. As a coach myself, having interacted with many coaches over the years I can say he sets the bar high. Whether you’re seeking to move better or teach others how to move better, I can’t recommend Tom enough.
