Our Story:

Acorn Hills Clothing Company was created by a college sophomore who loved both the outdoors and looking good.  The company, although very small at first, set out to provide premium clothing products. Although similar to other big brands, we provided these products for a fraction of the price. However clothing is only a small part of what we stand for .  Along with this,  Acorn Hills focuses on giving back to its community by taking the initiative to help revitalize forests and areas of land that fill this great place we call earth. With a percentage of our sales donated to charities and organizations such as the National Forest Foundation and others that align with these goals.  By providing things such as biodegradable packaging, and plantable clothing tags, we pay homage to our acorn logo by practicing what we preach.  By also planting acorns every year to help replenish trees in nature, we continue to make a positive change for the outdoors, no matter how small.  People have asked, "why choose clothing?"  It's simple really,  when you look good, you feel good, and when you feel good...you DO GOOD!  We just help you get there.

UNDER PAR CONSULTING IS THE RESULT OF OVER 20 YEARS OF TEACHING GOLF AND COACHING AT THE HIGHEST LEVEL OF THE COLLEGIATE GAME. 

Wanting to help players and families navigate the road from junior golf all the way to the elite levels of professional golf, we want to prepare the entire person and player for the next level.  With thousands of contacts in the fields of coaching, the business of golf, and instruction, we have access to every available resource that an aspiring golfer will need. 

When it comes to finding the right mix of academics and athletics, locating the perfect instructor, or creating a tournament game plan, we believe that consistency and dependability are the keys to success in all areas.  Whether it is a practice plan, keeping statistics, a consistent fitness routine, or goal setting, staying on track with a view of what is next is vital.  

I created Under Par Consulting after a coaching career that gave me more life rewarding experiences and relationships then I could ever hope for.  What I missed was time with my wife and growing daughter.  After realizing that being home to see volleyball games and helping with homework was rewarding, I decided to create UPC as a way to continue my passion of helping players and families.

David Wall, a Blackshear native, took a liking to golf early in his life. He started playing the game at the age of 10 and dominated the sport while in high school and college. He was low medalist for the 1979 Blackshear High School state championship golf team and went on to earn a scholarship at both South Georgia College in Douglas and Augusta College. Following college, Wall went on to qualify for the US Amateur and turned pro in 1985. He played the Florida Mini -Tour for four years, winning 25 events and joined the Hooters Tour in 1990 where he won the Brick Landing Open in Wilmington, NC in 1991 and the Collins Pro Classic in Louisville, KY in 1996. During his time on the Hooters Tour, Wall made 35 cuts in a row. He left the tour after being diagnosed with the disease that slowly robbed him of his muscle control and eventually took his life. David loved God, his family, his friends (many of them junior golfers).  David's family acts as tournament host including his parents, Mr & Mrs. William Wall, his brother, Mr. Bill Wall, his sister Mrs. Debbie Gilleon, and his wife Dawn, and sons, DJ, Logan, & Kirby.  

The Green’s Ladies Golf Club, Inc. (GLGC) was founded in 1954 and is the oldest African American women’s Golf Club in the Delaware Valley. On May 1, 1954, Ms. Lorraine Sawyer met with seven other women in West Philadelphia to lay the foundation of the Green’s Ladies Golf Club. These women were motivated by the need for a totally governed black female golf club to be respected in the golf community and to inspire other black women interested in sharing in the joy of golf. The Charter members were: Lillian Cherry, Gladys Gray, Alma Fay Horn, Lorraine Sawyer, Opal Shields, Mary Frances Simpson, Lubertha Slocum and Ann Wilson. Through the years the GLGC has traveled extensively participating in tournaments along the eastern coast. The first tournament hosted by the GLGC was held in 1955.
