They were my grandfather's, who pretty much raised me, I haven't played with them at all since he passed away. It's about time

Those Hogans are sweet

You'll be hitting rope hooks with that Ping persimmon I bet.

I've got an old titleist blade in my shop. when I really start striking it poorly with my irons, I take it to the range. It'll remind you to hit it square

That ping is laminated, I believe ... don't think they made a persimmon ... wonder how much more loft those irons have than today's ... might want to research the best ball for those woods ... laminated didn't crack as often as persimmon, but I don't know what today's balls would do on that face ...

I don't think it's laminated. You can feel the texture of the wood throughout the head. I could be wrong though

they're laminated ... persimmon woods were made from one piece of wood, whereas laminated were made from layers of wood pressed together ... persimmon had the reputation for being the better club, but i think that was probably marketing ... they did crack more than laminated, and i can personally attest to that ... bought a beautiful tommy armour persimmon while in hs and had it refinished sometime during college ... loaned it to a friend one weekend and he came back with a shaft that had a splinter on the end ... had shattered ...

they're laminated ... great club, regardless ... i'd actually think about rethreading those before hitting them ... there are guys that play old school equipment and get a big kick out of it, so you might want to make sure those will last a long time if you find out you can hit them ... amazing how small that head is compared today's clubs ... do the irons have pins in the hosels?
