Ben Hogan Persimmon Driver built for Tom Kite You are bidding on a mint condition Ben Hogan Persimmon Driver with an Apex High Modulus Graphite Shaft built, I believe, for Tom Kite. I bought this club 15 to 20 years ago and as I recall it came from a seller in Texas. It was represented to me that this driver was one of several that were built by the Hogan factory for Tom Kite. Now look at the photos of the sole of the club. Hogan persimmon clubs are normally marked “oil hardened” and show a model number. This club has no such markings, rather it is simply marked “KITE”. I remember going to the 1991 US Open at Hazeltine and following Tom Kite. I distinctly remember him using a persimmon driver with a dark or black shaft. Why would I remember? Because I first started playing Hogan clubs in 1967. As you can see from the pictures the club is in mint condition; I have never hit it. This club has been the cornerstone of my collection for many years and it is time for it to move along to another collector. The pictures included have not been doctored, the only editing has been cropping. There is no head cover included but I will package it carefully and ship promptly. Any questions just ask. Good Luck,
