Would this be called a dipper or a club gourd?

That is a very nice looking Short Handled Dipper (they can be shorter than that or longer....but the Long Handled Dippers are longer...of course this could be a shorter Long Handle Dipper.....Hmmm does this make sense?? either way...it's a very nice gourd. Jo

Thanks! Sorry I was ignorant of the name!

Beth....No problem...lots of gourds get new names due to cross pollination...what I may calll one thing...another person will refer to it as something else...and both can be right. Jo

A few years back we grew, likely from a cross, what
hubby called Giganti-dippers. It was a hoot. They were
the only two fruit on the vine and they were HUGE!

Nice looking kids you've got there!
