As author Edward Willett explains: “When golf started out, and for centuries after, golf clubs were all made of wood. At a fairly leisurely pace, other materials began to be used for both the heads and the shafts. There were fiberglass shafts, aluminum shafts and steel shafts. Club heads eventually began to be made out of both wood (hence, “woods”) and steel (hence, “irons”). But in recent years, more exotic materials have been used.”
Of course, it would have been nice if they’d bothered to link to the column in question. Guess I can’t expect an explosion of hits.
