Louisville Golf Company Information

Presently Louisville Golf makes some of the finest Persimmon woods ever offered, keeping the Persimmon tradition alive for golfers who have experienced the pleasure of hitting a wood golf club and want to pass that on to a generation that largely has never experienced the satisfaction and sound of a well-struck Persimmon wood. "Persimmon is still relevant because the clubs we make are still as effective as anything made of metal for most golfers," said Mike Just, Louisville Golf's president. "We have the customers to prove it; they enjoy the game more with our clubs. We think it is important to the game and to the golfers who play it to keep the traditions of wood golf clubs going. We see it as our mission to keep wood golf clubs in play. "With this mission of keeping the game's wood golf clubmaking tradition active, Louisville Golf has included Hickory-shafted golf clubs to its product line. Being uniquely qualified to build Hickory-shafted golf clubs, Louisville Golf first offered Hickory-shafted golf clubs for players in the National Hickory Championship. Original clubs from that period were too expensive to play, and Louisville Golf was asked to provide replica equipment for participants. As more players began playing golf with hickory-shafted clubs, Louisville Golf expanded its line to make a wider variety of clubs available. Today the E. Just & Bros. line of Hickory-shafted clubs offers a full complement of hickory-shafted woods, irons and putter models from the Walter Hagen and Bobby Jones era of golf. Keeping these traditions in play, and honoring the spirit of the game, is what Louisville Golf is all about.
