I was given a piece of persimmon at the last DAMP wood society meeting ....I know persimmon was used in golf club heads [I had a set of persimmon woods years ago] and I am just wondering about its turning characteristics, and being as it is presently in log form, and has some checking on the ends, should I get crackin' on this soon....... or because of the cold weather, am I safe for a while.
I do not know how long ago it was cut, but perhaps if Tony D. or Mike Cruz know, they could offer some guidance........anyone else with a tip or two about persimmon.......chime in! Thanks everyone!
