SUMMARY:2026 Foxburg Hickory Championship
DESCRIPTION:Historic Foxburg Country Club is hosting the 18th Foxburg Hickory Championship Thursday\, Aug. 13-15th\, 2026. \nEstablished in 1887\, Foxburg Country Club is the oldest golf course in continuous use in the United States\, and proves to be an excellent venue for hickory and gutty play.  \nThe 2026 edition of the FHC includes the Foxburg Featherie Challenge on Thursday\, Aug. 13.  This is a nine-hole medal play event with divisions based on the count and array of entries.  The entry fee for the Feathery Challenge is the nine-hole greens fee only.  Awards are included with your FHC entry.  A round of feather ball golf prior to the primary component of the hickory tournaments (especially guttie ball tournaments) is gaining in popularity.  Several Oddball format events (events popularized by Denny and Cathy Lane whose tournament of the same name has been gaining more adherents) have emerged where the feather ball score is combined with your scores recorded with later period balls. More information on obtaining feather balls is included on the event information PDF\, below.  \nThe Foxburg Hickory Championship’s Pre-1900 and Post 1900 competitions are on Friday\, Aug. 14 and 15.  These are two days of 18-hole medal play. Practice rounds are encouraged on either Wednesday or Thursday. Arrange your practice round tee times with the pro shop; they are not included in the entry fee.  There is generally a considerable group attending the practice round days.  \nClick here for a PDF of complete event information. \nClick here for a registration form.

SUMMARY:2026 Wisconsin Hickory Open
DESCRIPTION:Hello to all our hickory golf family.  Here we are.  Another year and another season. \n2026 also marks another milestone for the Wisconsin Hickory Golfers and the Links course of Lawsonia.  Though it will be the 16th event played on this great course (as we hosted the U.S. Hickory Open in 2016)\, 2026 will be the 15th anniversary of the Wisconsin Hickory Open.  I wonder if Ken Holtz and Joe Guerard\, having a wee nip of Kummel in the members lounge at Muirfield\, discussing how to start an event in Wisconsin\, ever thought that we would be hosting our 15th WHO.  Since its inception\, the Wisconsin Hickory Open has been through various conditions.  From the first event on an extremely hot\, dry August weekend where the greens were so quick you hoped the wind wouldn’t blow your ball off the green\, to a raging river splitting the first green in half from a torrential rain burst\, we’ve seen it all.  But that is Wisconsin\, and we would not have it any other way. \nThe one thing that has stayed the same over the years\, is the fun and fellowship we’ve had gathering on a great hickory course like the Links of Lawsonia\, and we will do it again. \nOn Oct. 1–3\, we will once again convene on the Links course of Lawsonia in Green Lake\, Wisc.  There is no better time to play golf in Wisconsin than in the fall\, as the leaves are turning\, and the air is crisp. \n \nWe will have multiple hickory play divisions for gross and net winners. Lots of awards\, fun and food.  Thursday is our practice day with a Thursday night welcome reception and trade show (you are welcome to bring clubs to trade and sell).  Friday will be the first round of the event in the morning followed by score posting and fellowship gathering right after.  That evening\, we will meet at the club house for our traditional Wisconsin “Friday Fish Fry” dinner.  Saturday morning\, we will play the second round and meet for scores and awards immediately following. \nHickory club equipment rentals will be available. The tournament uses pre-1935 SoHG-approved clubs. It is two days of medal play in both gross and net divisions. \nClick here for an entry form. \nSo\, mark your calendars and join us for the 2026 Wisconsin Hickory Open. \nIt will be a special occasion.\nCheers!\nJim “Doc” Eike
