2<strong>02</strong>7 - 150 Years of the Golf Club<br />

In 1877 the Dornoch Golf Club came into existence primarily through the vision and endeavours of Secretary John<br />

Sutherland and the Club has never looked back since.<br />

In 2<strong>02</strong>7 Royal Dornoch Golf Club will celebrate 150 years. To commemorate this milestone a committee has been<br />

formed to write a comprehensive illustrated history of the Club.<br />

The Archive will have a central role in the project. It has accumulated valuable documents, objects, books and<br />

memorabilia from the lifetime of the Club but there are gaps in our rich history. We are asking that if you have anything<br />

that you think may help develop the Archive and add to the history of Royal Dornoch (for example see the photo at the<br />

end of the newsletter) we would love to hear from you at Archive@royaldornoch.com.<br />

Unraked bunker<br />

I was rather disappointed to see that someone had played a bunker shot and made no attempt to rake or smooth the<br />

marks they made afterwards. As you can see from the photo the rake was very close at hand. This was on the morning<br />

of Sunday 30th January, barely 24 hours after the Championship Course had reopened. Hopefully we will not see this<br />

repeated and our golfers will leave bunkers in the way they would wish to find them.<br />
