Why You Should Refer Your Members to Haversham & Baker for Overseas Golf Travel
The relationship between a PGA Professional and club members is unique. It stretches far beyond lessons on the practice tee or hosting the Member-Guest. As their trusted advisor for all things golf, your endorsement carries a lot of weight. And you’re right to protect it.
We understand that recommending an unknown product to your membership is almost like suggesting they put an Alien wedge in the bag. You just wouldn’t do it. But from time to time, your members may turn to you for advice about golf travel. When that’s the case, here’s a few reasons why you should refer your members to Haversham & Baker with confidence.
We’re “The Country Club of Golf Travel”
Over the three decades since our company was founded, H&B has served the members of over 1600 different private clubs. So many, in fact, that we’ve been called “the country club of golf travel.” There’s a good chance that your club is already on the list. But we didn’t earn that title by way of sheer volume alone. It came mostly through years of precisely catering to the desires and expectations of private club members. Only those who deliver the same on a daily basis can truly relate to the standard of excellence the task requires.
And although we’d love to take credit for coining “the country club of golf travel,” we can’t. We owe that bit of word-smithing to Ben Hoffhine, PGA of Westchester Country Club.

We’re Trusted By Your Peers
Last year alone, 125 PGA Professionals either recommended their members to H&B or introduced us to another PGA Professional. They’re part of the over 200 professionals who currently participate in the H&B PGA Professionals Program. These professionals represent 33 sections of the PGA of America and chances are there’s a few familiar names on this list.
In total, the participants in our program have led more groups of their members overseas with H&B than all the other golf travel companies… combined. They understand how travel fits into the overall golf program of a private club, because they’ve experienced it first-hand. And perhaps most importantly, they recognize that there’s strength in numbers, and rest easy knowing that we’ll provide their members with the same level service as they’d deliver personally.
The Annual Honorarium
For most of our PGA Professionals, this peace of mind, along with knowing they played a small role in cherished memories for their members, is compensation enough. We would be remiss, however, to not mention another more tangible benefit of referring your members to Haversham & Baker…
Whenever a group you’ve introduced to us chooses to travel with H&B for the first time, you’ll receive an honorarium equal to 5% of their land package. The larger the group, or the more groups you introduce to us, the larger the honorarium. It’s a nice perk at the end of the year, but again… We know it isn’t about the money.
In summary, no other golf travel company is trusted by more of your colleagues and private club members than Haversham & Baker. When your members have questions about a trip across the pond, you can point them our way with confidence.

We look forward to serving you and your members on an upcoming H&B Expedition.
