Could be, i did a quick search and found some posts naming these, Toney Penna and the MacGregor Eye O Matic as the classics.

I remember Jeff Maggert using one of these at the Aussie Open back when Kerry Packer controlled the event.

Have a look at this post:

Yes. Aussie one is rare and the Texas model is very sought after in the States among collectors. Great find!!

Shame that they are rare/sought after (I'm reading that as expensive) the Australian one would look nice with my Aussie blades, might have to retract my dibs PM. :(

Oh — not a Toney Penna, PTP.

Seems to be a 'Tourney Custom', which is a copy/reproduction of the MacGregor 693 Tommy Armour. Produced after the 'Tommy Armour' name had been sold, apparently.

It's the two Wood Bros that seem to be worth something; couple of eBay listings for several hundred a piece.
