Step into the world of vintage golf, where hickory clubs, classic equipment, and timeless traditions bring the game to life. Robert and Buck share the stories behind the Proper Golf Society, discuss upcoming events, and celebrate a style of golf that's less about scorecards and more about camaraderie, history, and the simple joy of walking the course with friends. Whether you're a longtime hickory golfer or just curious about the game's roots, this episode is a reminder that sometimes the best way to enjoy golf is to slow down and play it the way it was meant to be played.
