    Extractions: St Gilbert Street Golf has been played on Dornoch Links since the 16th Century, although formal permission to play was only granted to the Sutherland Golfing Society in 1877. In 1906 Millicent Duchess of Sutherland asked King Edward VII to grant the title 'Royal' to the Dornoch Golf Club, a move which lead to a marked expansion in membership. Royal Dornoch is now ranked 15th in the world's top golf courses, and is as much-loved for its technical difficulty as it is for its stunning views across the Dornoch Firth and Sutherland hills. The birthplace of Dornoch's most famous son, Donald Ross - a greenkeeper who emigrated to the United States and laid out hundreds of golf courses - can still be seen in St Gilbert Street. Ross House, a new golf training and further education college bearing his name, opened in the Burgh in 2001. The life and work of Donald Ross and the history of golf in general is commemorated in the USA by The Donald Ross Society and the Chivas Irons Society A leaflet with details of places in Dornoch associated with Donald Ross is available free from the Tourist Information Centre and most Dornoch shops, pubs and hotels.

    http://www.webcom.com/oldgolf/golfcollecting/earlyhis.html
    
    Extractions: In this section you will find a series of pictures and short stories about the history of the game of golf from the 1400s to 1930s. The earliest written record of the game of golf is 1457 when King James II of Scotland put a ban on golf. He prohibited the game because his citizens were not spending enough time at archery and couldn't defend themselves against an English invasion. Thus, the game today is at least 540 years old. Note:

52. Golf History: 1400s Thru 1960s!
    To understand the history of the game of golf, it is helpful to have an understandingof the different types of golf equipment that have been used.  
    http://www.webcom.com/oldgolf/golfcollecting/golfhist.html
    
    Extractions: To understand the history of the game of golf, it is helpful to have an understanding of the different types of golf equipment that have been used. Important components in the evolution of the game of golf are the types of golf balls used and the variety of materials used to fabricate them. Each new golf ball material changed the ball's flight characteristics. Each of the different types of balls used, also affected different aspects of the game, such as the design and type of clubs, the style of play, the length of golf courses and the economics of playing. Between the 1400s and the 1960s there have been four distinct types of golf balls produced and used to play the game of golf: Wooden golf balls , Feather stuff leather cover (Featherie) golf balls , Gutta Percha balls and Rubber Core (modern golf) balls. Wooden golf balls may have been made of hardwoods, such as: beech and boxroot. Not much information has survived from the wooden ball period. They were probably made and used from the circa 1400s into the 17th century. These facts about wooden golf balls are pure conjecture based on written information; artifacts datable from this period are virtually non existent. Picture of two featherie golf balls here!

The book is a combination travel guide, historical reference and accounting of the matches played with local club members. It's an enjoyable read … as well as a hearty education in the heritage and etiquette of golf." Bob Labbance, editor of Turf Magazine and author of The Old Man.

58. Foreward To Golf History Web
    golf history Web began as a personal odyssey to find the oldest golf courses andthe courses of the oldest golf clubs and societies in Scotland to play.  
    http://www.golfhistory.btinternet.co.uk/Foreword_golf_history.htm
    
    Extractions: Foreword – Caveat Lector Golf History Web began as a personal odyssey to find the oldest golf courses and the courses of the oldest golf clubs and societies in Scotland to play. Two problems emerged in my research. The first was that the historical data was not related to the present day, and thus you did not know exactly where ‘X marks the Spot’. This website seeks to relate the golf history to present day courses, locations, websites and maps. Secondly, it became clear that information on early golf history was patchy and conflicting. In cross-referencing the facts, I became aware that every publication contained gaps or at least one error or piece of misleading information. Some websites list dates that are several years adrift of the documented date. The terms ‘instituted’ and ‘foundation date’ are often used when what is meant is ‘first documented date’. Even prestigious books confuse the ‘Golf Hotel’, former clubhouse of the Burgess club, now destroyed, with that of the extant ‘Golf Tavern’ next door, which had served as the clubhouse of the Bruntsfield Links club. A few of these issues are typographical errors or flow from the fact that some websites are created by enthusiastic students practicing their new-found technical skills for the benefit of golf history; and far be it from me to dampen their enthusiasm for the game or inhibit their scholarly studies.

    Extractions: The Historic Timeline of Golf One fact we do know is that the "birth" of golf happen on the northwest shores of Scotland, perhaps as early as the twelfth century. It slowly spread throughout Scotland until by 1456 King James II thought it was taking to much time away from the mens archery practice, and decree that the futeball and golfe (as it was spelled at the time)no longer be played. Opon the signing of the Treaty of Glasgow on February 11, 1502, were King James IV pleaded perpetual peace with England. This unofficially lifted the ban on golfe. King James a golfe lover himself played golfs first "officially documented" match on the 3rd of February of 1504, with the Earl of Bothwell. Soon the Treaty of Glasgow fell apart and King James was killed, but golf lived on. Trivia Golf's timeline follows highlighting the important events of the evolution of golf.
