Offered here is a BGI one-piece driver. The head and shaft of this BGI 501 driver are made from a single, solid piece of wood, with no neck joint. The club shows minimal to no signs of use. The original face insert, horn, and lead backweight are intact.

The head and face of this club are exquisitely crafted, with the crown stamped "BGI Co." The club measures 43 inches in length, and the neck is exceptionally thin, especially for a one-piece club. The shaft is stamped "BGI" and "501" near the grip, which appears to be old.

The "spaghetti-thin" neck and the club's excellent condition make this a standout piece!
