| From Rich Schmidt, CHA Captain: “I’m determined to hold a proper NC Hickory Open Championship this year. With the help of some fellow hickory nuts in the mountains, I’m trying for a 2 day ‘proper’ event to be held at the very old and very cool Tryon Country Club outside of Hendersonville in late July or early August. This is a Donald Ross 9 hole throwback of a course with a cool old log cabin for a clubhouse. We would go around 2x and play different tees the 2nd time around. I’m shooting for an entry fee of no more than $125-150 that will include 2 rounds of golf with cart (optional), a modest tee gift, medals for gross and net across the divisions (depending on interest), and lunch both days. And perhaps if we have enough money a cooler of beverages at the end of each day, as the club doesn’t really have a grill. It is my hope that we will get 28++ for the field. Before I get too far down the road on planning, I would love to gauge everyone’s interest? Please do not reply to this message as I won’t get your input. However, I’ve posted a similar request on the Forum section of the website, where you can weigh in with your comments and suggestions.” Richard Schmidt Captain, Carolina Hickory Golf Association Visit The Carolina Hickory Golf Association at: http://carolinahickory.ning.com/?xg_source=msg_mes_network To control which emails you receive on The Carolina Hickory Golf Association, click here |
