I used to use a Wood Brothers Kool Kat Persimmon Wood.... I thought it was such a cool club, it was painted bright yellow so it was pretty hard to miss it

I remember the Kool Kat. It came in red or yellow and was very noticeable. Wood Bros. also made a traditional brown colored persimmon driver, if I remember correctly. Used to see it in Edwin Watts.

I used to hit a Cleveland Persimmon driver in the 1990s like the one Davis Love III used (or was it Justin Leonard). I also had a set of Jack Nicklaus MacGregors. From there I graduated to non-persimmon Ping Zing woods in blonde, then by the time I was in my senior year of high school I was using a Yonex Titanium Driver and TM Burner Bubble Titanium woods. This evolution in implemented technology took place over the course of only 5 years.

Come to think of it, I still have those persmissons and I think the Zings too! Time to go experiment on the range.

    • Day 27 - 2026-01-16 Played 18 with some of the usual "too many voices" going on when I'm working on swing stuff. Fun to get out in great bay area winter weather.
    • I know one recent college grad who's trying the same thing.  This guy was a Division III All-American, went on to play one year at Division I LSU, and is not working hard.  He won the Gulf States Open, a pro event, and made it to the second stage of the Korn Ferry Tour School late in the fall.  And didn't make the cut to get to the final stage.  I won't talk about swing or play stuff, but I believe there are a couple of things that are essential.  Obviously, talent, and drive, or work ethic.   I can't tell you how to do it, but you HAVE to get through it.  Golf is going to be your life, and it takes lots of work. Two more things that are really critical.  You'll need the facility to be able to practice.  My young friend stayed in Baton Rouge, as a past player on the team he can still use the LSU practice facilities.  And money.  Its unlikely you'll be able to work a full-time job and practice the way you will need to.  You'll probably need backing, from a parent, from a consortium of friends or club members., something to support you. Good luck, its not an easy path, but anything is possible.  Another young man from our area, Mike Brennan, just won for the first time on the "big" PGA Tour.    
    • No one in the world is as smart as Phil thinks he is.
    • Get more comfortable with being uncomfortable. If you don’t like practicing then give up now. You don’t have the passion to become a pro. Unless that mentality changes you won’t do well under stressful situations.    Call the PGA Tour and ask. They probably have resources available.
