The Society

The Proper Golf Society
Blades. Persimmons. Tasteful confidence.
Who We Are

Golf, the way it used to sound.

We are a society of golfers who believe the game lost something when the wood came out of it. Persimmon drivers, forged blades, and clubs honest enough to report exactly how you struck the ball, whether or not you cared to hear it.

We gather for proper tournaments, keep a Register of our members, and publish a newsletter when there is something worth saying. A small Committee governs the proceedings and takes itself quite seriously, by design.

Should you wish to join, a numbered membership tag is the way in. The Committee will see to the rest.

Enjoyment remains the entire point. The modern driver may stay in the car.

The Bylaws of Accountability

I. Thou shalt play persimmon.
II. Thou shalt not speak of thy modern driver.
III. Thou shalt accept the consequences of thy swing.
IV. If it doesn’t go thwack, it doesn’t count.
Thwack!

A sound best produced by persimmon meeting balata at the appointed hour.
