Made in 1950 for baseball and fly fishing legend Ted Williams. This rod came to be known as Young's 9 1 2 foot "Florida Special" model. Originally called the "Ted Williams Model" before Williams asked Young not to include his name in the official name of the rod. Williams subsequently gave this rod back to the Young family when he signed a contract with Sears Roebuck and Company,
