Request for Equipment Review

Should you have a question regarding the eligibility of a club(s), please submit the following information to the chairman of the Equipment Committee. (Please read the complete SoHG Equipment Guideline document – available on our website or directly from any member of the Equipment Committee – prior to submitting any request.)

   1)  To which of the above three equipment categories does your inquiry pertain?

   2)  Describe in detail your question or concern – use separate sheet if desired or necessary.

   3)  Provide evidence (attachments, photos and/or documentation are welcome) of why your club situation should be approved. If requesting a review of anything that falls within the general description of club repair, restoration, renovation or retrofitting, the company or person responsible for the renovation should be included in the discussion. Please provide us with the names(s) of all parties involved.

The SoHG Equipment Committee will review, in a timely manner, any club or club renovation submitted for approval to be used in hickory tournament play. Requests for equipment approval should be made through the chairman of the Equipment Committee. Upon completion of the review process, the committee chairman will respond to the submitting party and will explain the decision to that person or company. The SoHG Board of Directors and general membership also will be apprised of all decisions regarding equipment approval or disapproval. This will happen via the website, the SoHG publication or the United States Postal Service.

Barring unforeseen circumstances all equipment review decisions will be completed within a 30-day period from the date of receipt of the request. The type, accuracy and completeness of information received affect our ability to adhere to the above-mentioned timeline, so please provide us with as much material as possible.
