If you can get the buzz to go away, by pressing the pin with a screwdriver, it is probably a loose pin.
Get out your bottle of C/A glue, and apply.
I have never seen a 9lb sledge, but that probably would be a bit too heavy. :-)

  Dear People,
       I have this piano at a church, its a Kawai grand, 20 yrs. old, about 6.5'.  It has a note in the midrange that has a barely audible buzzing.  I whacked (lightly) the bridge pin(s) with a hammer (a small one) and the buzzing stopped.  But it came back in a day or two.

       Do you think this is a loose bridge pin?  Is the fix to get a bigger hammer?  I can go up to a 9 lb. sledge.  Or do I need to pull the pins out and epoxy back in?  Any chance it could be something other than a pin?  Like the bridge itself is loose?

       As always,  I appreciate very much any constructive comments.  Thanks in advance.
