When I got to England last year I decided to get a new driver made exactly like the old one. The club turned out very well and it was so close an imi- tation ‘that I could not feel any dif- ference, but nevertheless there was always that temptation to go back to the old club, The new club was in every way as good as the old one, but I really felt like I was deserting an old friend in casting it aside. , In my wooden clubs T always “put a little kink in the shaft ‘ust at the here the grip starts.
