Nessie's Nine Iron is a community-created melee weapon for the Demoman. It is a standard golf club with a brown grip.
Despite the description of this weapon not stating that it has a wide melee range and collects heads, the weapon functions identically to the Eyelander.
Taunting with Nessie's Nine Iron will perform the Demoman's Decapitation taunt kill.
