Bring someone to the Club.

The Hickory Club is built by the people in it. When you bring in someone we'd be glad to have, we'd like to thank you in a way that compounds.

— You (the referring member)
— Who you’re referring
Type your friend’s name, tap Text or Email.Your phone opens with the message pre-filled — pick the recipient from your contacts there. Your personalized referral link is included so when they apply, we’ll know it came from you.
— What happens next

When your friend applies and lists you as their referral, we’ll reach out to confirm you invited them before accepting their application. If they came through your personalized link, that confirmation is automatic — the application already has your name on it.

Referral questions.

  • How do the referral rewards work?

    Each accepted referral earns you $200 in club credit, usable toward any club service — private training, club fitting, retail, or food. Credit is posted to your account when your referral completes their first month of dues.

    At three accepted referrals (one full foursome) you get three months of dues waived. At seven (two foursomes), you unlock a full year of dues waived on top of that. Rewards stack with the per-referral credit.

  • What counts as an accepted referral?

    Someone you refer who applies, is accepted into membership, and completes their first month of dues.

  • Can I refer multiple people at once?

    Yes. Add as many friends as you like in a single sitting — the form lets you reach out person by person, with the message pre-filled. There's no cap.

  • Do referrals stack with the founding-member offer?

    Yes. Your founder pricing is locked separately from any referral credit you earn. Credit is additive — it doesn't replace your dues, it offsets future charges.

  • Who's the right person to refer?

    Someone who already plays or wants to. Someone you'd be glad to see at the bar after a session. The club works because the room is small and the standard is set by the members in it — referrals are how we keep that standard high.

  • What does my friend need from me to apply?

    Nothing technical. The outreach buttons here open a text or email pre-filled with the club brochure and a link to apply. Your friend can take it from there.

  • What if my referral doesn't get accepted?

    It happens — fit is a two-way thing. There's no reward for declined applications, but there's also no penalty. Refer someone else when you think of them.

  • Will my friend know I referred them?

    Yes. You send the messages directly, and if they use the link you share it will auto-fill your name as their referrer in the application. We'll reach out if there's ever any question.
