Gear #6: Persimmon vs. High Tech

Today I made a test. I hit balls with a steelshafted McGregor persimmon 3 wood and with a brand new Cobra S9-1 Pro 3 wood with an XS OZIK shaft. The longest balls I launched with the Cobra went about 10 yards farther. But it felt like I had much more control with the persimmon. Hmm...should I go back to real wood?
