Louisville Golf {Your Persimmon and Hickory Golf Concern} Here is a preview of our new Persimmon driver for 2010 (available in March), the SMART ProB.E. It is made from a model we made for Bob Estes in 2001. The model just kind of stayed on the back burner until we wondered why we hadn't turned a driver for our product line from it.

Metal shaft, right ? Not make for the NHC.
Nice to see that you aren't taking advantage of 2010 USGA Rule Appendix II 5 e. Suggest you sand/round the groove edges [all clubs]. Not a problem for wood, but rather difficult for metal.
Sand Wedge in wood ?

Louisville Golf {Your Persimmon and Hickory Golf Concern} If you have seen "Avatar," about 30 minutes into the movie you will notice our Louisvlle Golf wood mallet putter prominently used by actor Giovanni Ribisi. In this video you can see a flash of the putter as it is taken away from the actor in the scene. It is in the 4th segment, and Jimmy Fallon and Giovanni talk about ...the action figure that includes said golf club. If you haven't seen the movie, make sure that you do - it is more than a movie, it's an experience.

I could go on and on about why I think replica equipment is appropriate for Hickory golf, but I would just like the opportunity to address the concerns that have been presented, which seems to be that original equipment and replicas are not on a level playing field.

The replica equipment tends to be based on designs from the end of the period. Furthermore the replica equipment does not have the 'wear and tear' of the original clubs [although that could probably be built into the club]. Rules Decision USGA/4-1/100 deals with a simular problem for /modern' grooves.

Believe me when I tell you that golf club design is not that difficult, although the larger golf club companies would like you to believe that it is. Proof of this dynamic is the seven new irons depicted and discussed in the latest Golf Magazine (November 2009). ...
