You should contact Lionel and have a chat. Great guy, loves the game and is looking for interesting stories that relate to Hickory.
Hickory may well be on the rise again, giving the GOLFER much more in the thrill department and in chasing the ball around a classic course.
It would be one way to roll back the game - can't think of a better way to do it while generating a great deal of interest from the public at large, a sort of getting back to basic values.
