The History
Report
Aberdour Golf Club is over 120 years old and was formed in 1896. Over a period of 5 years Jack Bald, a Club member of many years standing, diligently researched the history of the Club from 1896 to 1996 and authored the book "The First Hundred Years" to commemorate the Club's Centenary.
Our Honorary President, Ron Scott, has compiled a detailed history of the Golf Club based on extracts from this book and from the 20 years from 1996 to the present day.We hope the following will be of interest to members, visitors and those who enjoy the history and tradition of golf. In 1893 a local committee explored the creation of a Golf Club in Aberdour and locating an appropriate site.

The War Years
Report
When war broke out it was rumoured that most of the course may be required for agricultural purposes but it soon transpired that the military would be setting up defensive gun emplacements on the golf course in an area adjacent to the sea. As a result the club lost the use of 3 holes. Two huts were built beside the dogleg on the present 16th hole and which were to serve as a temporary Clubhouse for the duration of the war.
The Course
Report
Established in 1896, Aberdour Golf Club is a well-maintained parkland course by the Firth of Forth, offering panoramic views of Inchcolm Island, Edinburgh and beyond. Ranging from 4,872 to 5,447 yards, the course itself is an enjoyable and fair test for golfers of all abilities, but sure to challenge you when you least expect it.
Course Guide
Report
The flagpole is the best way to judge the wind direction but the prevailing wind is into from the right. If playing a normal flighted shot then the brave line is at the bunker to the right of the green and let the wind bring it back. An alternative is to play a running shot landing short right and letting the natural contours take the ball down onto the green.
