CELEBRATING THE 25TH ANNIVERSARY OF 'STORY OF GOLF IN OKLAHOMA' AND AUTHOR DEL LEMON

September 4, 2026 - Burneyville, OK - By Barbara W. Sessions, Curator, Turner's Lodge Pro Golf Museum at Falconhead Resort, Burneyville, OK.

In 2001, talented golf writer Del Lemon wrote the definitive history of Oklahoma Golf, "The Story of Golf in Oklahoma."

At the time, the bent grass greens in the Sooner state had seen a U.S. Open at Southern Hills, a combined 56 PGA Tour, LPGA Tour, Nike Tour, and USGA professional championships, three NCAA championships, and 11 USGA amateur championships.

Lemon broke his book into 10 chapters, and Chapter 5 was called "Burneyville," the story of Turner's Lodge and its 15 professional golf events sponsored by Waco & Open Turner.

At a book-signing at Falconhead Resort (successor to Turner's Lodge), Del was happily greeted by many of the former employees of the Turners, relatives of the couple, and residents of the resort community.

The original tournament pictures donated by a niece of Waco Turner went on display at the Country Club for the occasion. This was the beginning of Turner's Lodge Pro Golf Museum.

DEVLIN RETURNS TO FALCONHEAD 63 YEARS AFTER CAREER-SAVING WEEK
By Ken MacLeod

February 27, 2026

It’s hard to fathom that golfers may never have become familiar with the name Bruce Devlin if not a two-week stretch of success in Oklahoma in May of 1963.

But that was the theme of his first return in 63 years to Falconhead Resort in Burneyville this week, where he was feted in another remarkable display by Barbara Sessions, historian and curator of the museum at Falconhead that honors the unique contributions of Waco and Opie Turner but also all of Oklahoma golf.
