 For those born collectors who have realized that golf too is eminently collectible, and for all who recognize golf’s rich history and revere playing an historic venue, or just the Muni down the street, these are the souls who are the GHS.

The Golf magazine alone will delight even the most casual amongst us. But the fullest gift is feeling that you are part of something special.  The camaraderie that we pride ourselves on is there for the taking.

Our members enjoy sharing with others, especially new recruits.  The Society fosters individual growth with many members becoming recognized authorities.  All are encouraged to express themselves, whether writing for our magazine or presenting in live or virtual meetings.  Hobnobbing at conventions with world famous authors, sportscasters, professional players, architects and others is not an uncommon thrill.  You can certainly buy, sell, and trade collectibles at our National Conventions and Regional gatherings, and numerus hickory events also provide a strong connection with the past. You can research and promote your ideas or share what history you’ve discovered or items you’ve acquired.

 Our biggest resource is the knowledge and generosity of our individual members.  If you wish to be active, you will visit some interesting cities and undoubtedly make many friends.  Friends that will invite you to their homes, to their private clubs, to tournaments and venues you might only have dreamed of experiencing. And contributing in a leadership role is applauded.  

You don’t have to have an expansive collection, or be an authority, nor a maestro at hickory golf, but all who love the game and who have stories to tell are enthusiastically welcomed.
