Default Midget putter and clad

Well temps here in central NC have been so awesome this week. I have gone out the last 2 days. Yesterday I went to an empty lot that I have hit before. Never find much but normally find something. I found a "Midget Putter" by The Rollin Wilson Co. I do a search for it and what do I see? I see Ask Pappy link? I click to this site and find it. Made in the 1940's with a hickory shaft! I think it is very cool!

This afternoon I hit another ballfield after work. I hunted until dark, about 1 hour. My clad total today was $3.40 with 10 quarters. Not bad for a short after work hunt, Beale.
