I have been helping a friend of mine with his game some and I gave him one of my old persimmon woods to try out so we could see where his swing was at for feedback.
He is a younger kid and very strong with tremendous speed through the ball and his swing is coming along nicely.
So he hit a couple of shots to get the feel for persimmon as he had not hit one since he was a little kid bashing around with his dad’s old clubs and then really creamed one and this was the result
I guess his strength was too much or the crappy harder balls on the range just didn’t agree with the MacGregor…luckily I have a few more persimmons to play around with
The baseplate is actually bent and almost impossible to move- the force must have been outstanding to not only split the wood but to bent the plate beyond recongition
