The Stewart Catalogue description of the pitcher suggests that the offset versions of these clubs were more appropriate for use on the short shots while the standard model would be more appropriate for full swing approaches. These are fairly scarce clubs and the author has not seen an example of the offset variety.

“Also an offset model, for the shorter approach, or pitch to the pin.”
