2018 North Texas Hickory Open

Oct. 18-20
Sherrill Park GC
Richardson, Texas

Scott Pilgrim has prepared a great tournament for 2018. Here is his invitation:

I hope everyone is having a very enjoyable summer!  The 2018 NORTH TEXAS HICKORY OPEN is scheduled and ready to receive entries.  The No. 2 course at Sherrill Park GC in Richardson, Texas will host the event (http://www.sherrillparkgolf.com/).  The course is perfect yardage for hickory play, and has lots of character with water, trees, doglegs, and elevation changes….and it’s in fantastic condition. A Trade Show and Putting Tournament kicks off the event on Thursday evening. Please call the Pro Shop to arrange Thursday practice rounds. The individual stroke play format will include both gross and net awards in the Open, Senior, Statesman, & Ladies divisions. The low gross winner of the Open division will be crowned as Tournament Champion. We will also have a fun four-person Scramble Team division.

So, what you look forward to? How about beautiful trophies, framed prints, raffle prizes, great food, fabulous outfits, two days of hickory play, great weather, and wonderful fellowship.
