CGU Hickory Golf - Cancelled

Thursday 1st August
Gillyflower Golf Long, Tees - White (Men), Red (Ladies)
Stableford
H'cap Allowance: Full Handicap

  • Golf Clubs will be provided by S of England Hickory Golf Ltd and include 8 left handed sets
  • What should I wear?
    Dressing up is not compulsory! However, if you have "plus fours", a flat cap, an Argyle Jumper and socks you will really look the part!  Even if you do not have "plus fours", trousers tucked inside long socks is just fine.
  • What Golf Balls should we use?
    We ask you to use soft balls such as the Srixon Soft or the Callaway SuperSoft as they are kinder to the clubs and are perfect for the slower swing needed for Hickory Golf. ProV1 balls are far too hard!
  • Can you cater for left handed golfers?
    Yes, we have eight left handed sets.
  • What happens if a shaft breaks when playing, or the head comes off a wood?
    This does occasionally happen, however breakages are at our risk. Remember these clubs were made many years ago by professional clubmakers and are remarkably strong. Many of the clubs have been re-shafted in their restoration. In the event of a club breaking, all we ask you to do is to bring back both parts of the club as the head can be re-shafted, and the grip reused.
  • What Insurance Cover is provided?
    S of England Hickory Golf Ltd are fully covered as a Business with Public Liability and Product Liability Insurance. All players participating do so at their own risk, and it is the personal responsibility of each golfer to ensure that they have their own specialist Golf Insurance to cover accidental damage to themselves or others whilst playing.
  • Do you sell Hickory Clubs and Replica Golf Bags?
     We have restored clubs for sale as well as golf bags.    From time to time, clubs for sale are shown on this website under "clubs for sale" - however if you are looking for a specific club, please contact us.
