The Connecticut Hickory Golf Association (CTHGA) was founded in 2020 by Jacob Orcutt and Christian Williams. The CTHGA aims to help grow a vibrant hickory golf community in Connecticut by connecting current hickory golfers to discuss and play with hickory-shafted golf clubs and by introducing new hickory golfers to the game. We focus on inclusion and accessibility; hickory golf (and golf in general) can be expensive, but our goal is to promote a sustainable future for hickory golf. That includes supporting public and municipal golf courses (especially at Connecticut's nearly thirty pre-1935 public and semi-private golf courses) and providing loaner and low-cost hickory sets to help get players started with hickory golf.
If you've never played hickory golf before -- or if you're simply interested in learning more about playing with antique clubs -- contact us today. We'd be happy to chat or meet you at the course to try out some hickory-shafted golf clubs. We look forward to hearing from you!
