In 2017, KitchenAid bolstered its commitment to golf and the Championship with its debut as title sponsor.

  • 2011Traditions of Golf Challenge Study Guide
    2011Traditions of Golf Challenge Study Guide HISTORY SECTION PRE - 20th Century “When did the game of golf start?” Golf originated in the 15th century in Scotland. Mary, Queen of Scots introduced the word “caddie” to the game. While playing golf, she was accompanied by a club-carrying young boy whom she called the “cadet”, or “caddie.” Players would hit a pebble around a natural course of sand dunes, rabbit runs and tracks using a stick or primitive club. “How were golf balls developed?” The first real golf ball was known as the “feathery”. The feathery was a leather sack filled by hand with boiled goose feathers, and stitched up and painted. The feathery golf ball period may have started as early as the 1400’s and ended in the early 1850’s. The arrival of the gutta percha ball in 1848 or “guttie”, as it was called, revolutionized the game and allowed golf’s spread to the masses. The guttie was made from rubber, which could be heated, and formulated into a ball. The next revolution in ball design came around 1905 with the patented "Haskell" ball, which is a composite of a solid core wound with thin strips of rubber. Some modern balls (the expensive ones) are made this way today. This ball performed much better than the gutty and could be made cheaply compared to earlier balls. In 1972 the first two-piece ball was introduced by Spalding. These are more popular with amateurs, as they are more durable and considered to be longer and straighter. Many professionals are still devoted to the softer covered balls, since they prefer the added spin for control as opposed to distance.

  • Playing Hickory Golf While You Piece Together a Vintage Set
    CHAPTER 10 cmyk 4/11/08 5:13 PM Page 165 Chapter Title CHAPTER 10 Questions And Answers About Hickory Golf Q: How much does it cost to get started in hickory golf? A: You can purchase inexpensive hickory clubs for as little as $25 each. Obviously, these are not likely to be of a premium quality and will probably require work to make them playable. At Classic Golf, we offer fully restored Tom Stewart irons for about $150 each with a one-year warranty on the shafts against breakage. Our restored woods are about $250 each for the premium examples. So, a ten-club set with two woods would run $1,700. A 14-club set would be $2,300. This compares favorably with the purchase of a premium modern 14-club set where your irons are $800, your driver is $400, fairway wood $200, two wedges at $125 each, hybrid at $150, and a putter at $200 for a total of $2,000. Q: Can a beginner or high handicap golfer play hickory golf? A: Yes. That is how it was done 100 years ago! It can be an advantage starting golf with clubs that require a more precise swing. Q: Are there reproduction clubs available and are they allowed in hickory tournaments? A: Reproduction clubs are available from Tad Moore, Barry Kerr, and Louisville Golf. Every tournament has its own set of rules. The National Hickory Championship allows reproductions because pre-1900 clubs are so difficult to find and are very expensive. At the present time there are ample supplies of vintage clubs available for play, but this could change with the increasing popularity of hickory golf.

I learned the game basically on my own in late childhood and carried on with it into my late teens. I have had three lessons in my life. The first was a group lesson on holding and swinging the club, along with the basic rules of golf and etiquette from Bill Kozak when I was 12 years of age.

    • Est 1933 • 1933 - 2008 The Par 4, 14th Hole at Zwartkop CC 1 Aerial view of the Club of yesteryear. Note the clubhouse, tennis courts, squash court, swimming pool & play area for kids. 2 Letter from the Chairman Zwartkop Country Club is steeped in history. Its fairways and greens speak softly and with reverence of the Golfing Greats who have graced them over the past 75 years – from Jack, Arnie, Gary, Lee and all the others. Many an exhibition match, many a Championship and many a SA PGA Tour event have been fought for and won here. More recently, the Ladies Tour have added to this beauty and all have played as determinedly as the men from yesteryear. Over the years the changes to the original course have tightened and improved the experience of membership and playing The Game at Zwartkop CC. Yet, despite these 75 years we are blessed with a Club that is vibrant and forward thinking. The Zwartkop juniors continue to grow in number and capability and the future is on a solid base. We are blessed with a growing number of Bowlers, who continue to do the Club proud. The Bowls section is a strong and focused group of wonderful people who play to enjoy themselves, but always to win! They too do us proud at provincial and national level. Similarly, the Snooker section is a tightly knitted group who consistently perform and represent Zwartkop CC at all levels. We value the commitment and exemplary pride they display. No Club exists, and indeed grows, without the requisite supporting functions.
