GHSC News Item: August 30, 2022 – Fall Hickory Classic & Collector’s Trade Show (2022)

Reported by: Allan Lew, GHSC Hickory Ambassador

Golf Historical Society of Canada is pleased to announce its premier hickory golf event for 2022—the Fall Hickory Classic, Hickory Golf Tournament and Friendship Games. GHSC welcomes its members and all Canadian and American registered guests to participate in this combined hickory golf/collecting event.

This two-day event will take place on Saturday, October 1 and Sunday, October 2 at Whirlpool Golf Course and Sawmill Golf Course, respectively. The format of the golf includes both Individual Play (total score over 2 days) and Team Play (combined totals using Stableford scoring). Three play divisions are available—Open Medal, Ladies and Masters (70+ years). This is not really a competitive tournament per se; there is just enough competition and fun for a wide range of participantsPre-1935 clubs with hickory or other wood shafts, both originals and approved replicas, may be used. We will have extra hickory clubs available as loaners or rentals, upon request.
