What do you think or ever heard of a hickory shaft? Basically i have a full set of golf clubs from 1900-1920 with hickory shafts. I am not a wood expert like some of you. Just thought they might work for shafts. What is your oppinion? thanks mid

After talking to a buddy of mine i realize noway would this work. Took the handle of one of the clubs and the wood diameter is much to small. Dont know how i did not think of that.

It's not uncommon.... Hickory shafts were used back in the day. Oak and Ash for pool cues as well. Some of John Davis's older cues have Hickory shafts. Hickory has also been used in the butt as well. -J. Spitz
