I was lucky enough to pick up a set of original JH “Harry” Busson Woods on ebay a couple of weeks back and have just received them. Busson was probably the premier clubmaker of his generation 1940s-1980s here in the UK and many of the big names from Europe and visitors from the US would have their persimmon woods made by him. They were refinished about 20 odd years ago and havn’t been hit since - pics attached. They sit super (square or even slightly open) but the shafts have a step pattern I have never seen - no shaft labels. I wonder if you have any ideas. I measured the (repeating) pattern and it goes like this on the driver - anyone seen anything like it?
Cheers, Arnie
