Persimmon Driver Restoration


Recommended Posts

I recently discovered my old Power Bilt Citation Driver in my parents garage.  It is the model of the pic attached (the pic is from the internet), but it is the right model.  The shaft was broken and the head was tarnished pretty bad.  It appears to just be cosmetic.  Does anyone know of anyone that restores persimmon drivers?  I live in Nashville and don't mind having to ship it off.  Also, it will need to be reshafted, but it has the nylon string around the neck where a ferrule would normally be so the reshaft may be a bit more detailed than normal.  Anyone have any experience with these?

Sorry to be so late to the conversation guys.   Yes,  I restore woods and have reshafted persimmon woods.  With the right tools reshafting a persimmon isn’t too difficult.  I’ll send you a message.
