Fall at the Fields.

Fall at the Fields is a proper observance of the game as it was struck before the engineers got hold of it: forged blades, persimmon heads, and a golf ball that must be met honestly or not at all. There is no perimeter weighting here. There is no forgiveness. There is only the strike.

Blades and persimmons are required — not encouraged, required. Tasteful confidence remains compulsory. Fun is, as ever, the entire point, though the Committee accepts no responsibility for what a wooden driver does to a man’s composure on the first tee.

The field is limited. The stories, the Committee is reliably informed, will not be.

Particulars
Date
November 1, 2026
A Sunday in November, when the light runs long and the ball goes nowhere. The Committee finds this clarifying.

The Third
Present Your Persimmon
Arrive at LaGrange with blades in the bag and a wooden head on the driver. Bags will be inspected in good humour and in earnest.

The field is limited and closes the moment it is full — and in any event before the first tee on Sunday, the first of November.

Declare Yourself

State your particulars below and the Committee shall be in touch with confirmation and the account to be settled.

The Proceedings Are Closed
