The Hirsel

Hirsel 1. Golf Course

This course is not to be confused with the existing Hirsel golf course which was laid out and opened in 1949, which is very much still in existence. 

In progress

Harry Ward is a respected golf historian known for his detailed research into the origins and development of the game, particularly in Scotland. His work explores the early courses, players, and traditions that shaped modern golf, bringing to life the stories behind iconic venues and figures. Through careful study and a passion for the sport’s heritage, he helps preserve golf’s rich history for future generations.

All of this work is independently funded out of his own pocket. If you value preserving golf’s history and would like to support his ongoing research, any contribution—no matter how small—would be greatly appreciated.
