re: Gonna regrip and play these old bad boys....

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 ...
