Hickory Golf: Fresh Finds from the 2022 Columbus Golf Collectibles Trade Show

[@ntc.online]

Hi HH, love the videos. I am learning so much. Would you do a video about where you learn about golf history and club identification? For instance, forums you frequent, books you own, etc. Specifically I am finding it difficult to learn about gutty golf. Thanks!

[@TheHickoryHacker]

Absolutely! Great idea. I’ll pull that one together and post soon.

I love seeing old 1920 or 1930 era golf balls. I just think its so interesting to know that the tiny little ball managed to survive so long (which is also why I like hickory golf clubs). I found a pretty bad condition mesh pattern wound ball that says "Wilson" on the front and "success" on the back which has become my favorite ball in my golf ball collection. The thing I find most interesting is the fact that I found it on a pretty crappy 9 hole course which causes me to wonder how in the world it managed to get there.

Nice score at the trade show Christian. I'm very impressed with your grail fid of the Harry Vardon piece. Congratulations, and have a great vacation.

Thanks! I feel like I got a great deal, too, on the Vardon. Trading has become my favorite way to acquire new items for my collection - seems more fun for both parties.

Congratulations on acquiring the Harry Vardon card and good to hear that you're escaping the Connecticut weather. A well deserved vacation I'm sure!

Thanks, Brad! I’m bringing you a sand tee mold when I come up next month.
