This is the 13th year for the Wisconsin Hickory Open. It’s a popular hickory event held at the iconic Lawsonia Links golf course in beautiful Green Lake, Wisc. Come enjoy the wonderful fall weather of Wisconsin and one of the most challenging golf courses on the Hickory tour.
“We will have multiple hickory play divisions for gross and net winners. Lots of awards, fun and food. Thursday is our practice day and you are welcome to come out for a warm up. Thursday night we will have a pizza party and welcome reception at the house on the second hole. All are welcome and bring clubs to sell or trade. Friday is our first round starting with tee times at 9 a.m. After golf we will meet to post scores and catch up on the round. At 5:30 will be our annual “Friday Night Fish Fry” at the club house of Lawsonia. A Friday night tradition in Wisconsin, this is not to be missed. Saturday is the final day of the event, scoring will occur, awards given out and good byes will be shared.

About Lawsonia and its History:
Lawsonia’s historic Links Course has long been considered one of the best classic golf courses in the country. The course has undergone a revitalization over the past decade, including extensive tree work and thoughtful restoration, and a return to ‘firm and fast’ traditional playing surfaces on the course.
The Links features deep bunkers, wide fairways, and a set of putting greens that are as interesting and as good as anything you will find in the country. It is a big, bold golf course that remains virtually unchanged from the day its brilliant golf architects, William Langford and Theodore Moreau, finished construction in 1930. The course is a marvel even before you consider it was built with 1920’s-era steam shovels!
What has made Lawsonia Links such an enduring favorite of Wisconsin Golfers? It’s the quality of the golf course and the kind of heroic, creative, ‘linksy’ shotmaking opportunities that it invites (the kind of golf that is unfortunately missing in so many modern courses).
Simply put, The Links is a tremendously fun and memorable golf course and one of the very best public courses in the country!
