Jack Nicklaus' kids gave away the putter he used to win the '86 Masters

Published Apr. 6, 2016 12:14 p.m. ET

Jack Nicklaus' putt on the 71st hole of the 1986 Masters is arguably the most famous televised shot in golf history - rivaled only by Tiger Woods' miraculous chip in 2005 - but Nicklaus recalled Wednesday that he doesn't have the putter he used to drain the iconic putt.

In an interview on the Dan Patrick Show, Nicklaus said that one of his children gave the club away, and they've never been able to find it.

The putter Nicklaus used on that day in 1986 was a MacGregor Response ZT 615, which at the time was ridiculed for its oversized blade. The White Fang, which Nicklaus used to win the 1967 U.S. Open, now sits in the Jack Nicklaus Museum in Columbus.
