Thanks to Scott Noble for swinging by to talk about golf and his experiences as a member of Royal Burgess Golf Club in Scotland.
Scott is a regular user of the reciprocal opportunities between our clubs and loves to return to Royal Colwood. He likes our layout and the challenges that our greens present to golfers of all levels. Scott got the opportunity to play in the June Men’s Sponsor Night and really enjoyed himself. He noted that it was nice to see the members “Toast the King” at the dinner.
The Royal Burgess Golfing Society of Edinburgh is a Scottish golf club, which holds claim to be the oldest golfing society in the world, with references to it being instituted in 1735 dating from 1834. The club enjoys a parkland course located in Barnton, Edinburgh that was designed initially by Tom Morris and Willie Park Jnr, with subsequent revisions by James Braid. Notable members have included Jack Nicklaus and Bernard Gallacher alongside a host of royals, aristocrats and socialites. The Society has had its current 'Royal' status since 1929, when King George V ordered the name be changed from The Edinburgh Burgess Golfing Society to The Royal Burgess Golfing Society of Edinburgh.
