WELCOME TO FORFAR GOLF CLUB Forfar Golf Club was founded in 1871 and is a mature wooded Heathland course located only 12 miles from the 2007 Open Championship venue in Carnoustie. The Original course was laid out by four times Open Champion Old Tom Morris of St.Andrews in 1871. Alterations were made by James Braid in 1926. One of the most difficult holes is undoubtedly the 12th, a 444 yard par 4, but the 412th yard 15th is suitably named “Braids Best” after the five times Open Champion. Whilst Forfar is an inland course the tight undulating Heathland fairways combined with a classical layout creates conditions akin to links golf. This compact golf course is in the heart of picturesque Angus and provides the ideal test for all abilities of golfer and will provide an enjoyable and memorable day for anyone wishing to play golf in Scotland. In 1871 James Brodie persuaded Colonel Dempster of Dunnichen to permit the playing of golf over 50 acres to the east of the town and under Brodie’s impetus Forfar Golf Club was formed. In 1889 improved prosperity of the Club funded the building of a clubhouse and ladies were admitted to the Club in 1895. In 1920 the Club was able to purchase the course for £700 when its membership stood at 541. Among the club’s more celebrated personalities is Sandy Saddler, who after being Club Champion seven times went on to represent Scotland no less than ten times, and Britain fourteen times between 1959 and 1967. In 1967 he was the only player to win two singles in the Walker Cup. The Club Championship trophy was presented by Mrs Violet Callander, wife of the late Bill Callander who in addition to being a life member at Forfar, was representative on the SGU for 14 years, captain of the Scottish Team and a member of the R&A. where he served until the mid eighties and was for many years Convenor of the Rules Committee. In recent years Stuart Wilson has represented Forfar on the national scene. In 2003 he played in the winning GB&I team which defeated the USA at Ganton in the Walker Cup. In June 2004 Stuart won the Amateur Championship at St.Andrews on the occasion of the 250th Anniversary of the R&A.
