Whilst normal golf attire is perfectly acceptable, we would love to see players embracing the spirit of the hickory age. Plus-fours, tweed jackets, flat caps, waistcoats and argyle socks are all warmly encouraged. For those looking for inspiration, golfers of the early 20th century often sported: • Plus-fours or tailored trousers • Collared shirts and ties • Flat caps or newsboy hats • Traditional tweed and knitwear There will also be prizes for Best Dressed Gentleman and Best Dressed Lady, so feel free to go all out! This promises to be a relaxed, social and memorable day, celebrating golf as it was played in years gone by. Whether you're a hickory enthusiast or simply fancy trying something different, we'd love to see you there.
