Reviving the Classics: Hickory Golf is Making a Comeback!

Today, Hickory Golf combines a touch of history with a dash of fun, and it’s taking the golfing world by storm! Imagine swinging a club that transports you back to the roaring twenties, using gear inspired by the original flair of the game. Isn’t that exciting? Players are not just picking up these antique-style clubs; they’re adopting a whole new lifestyle.

What Exactly is Hickory Golf?

Hickory Golf involves using clubs crafted before 1935 or modern replicas made from American Hickory. This is not just about swinging a club from yesteryear; it requires embracing the original techniques used when golf was in its infancy. And if you thought the attire was fun, wait until you see players donning their knickerbockers and caps, channeling their inner gentleman or lady of the links!
