1890s Gutty Golf at Fortrose & Rosemarkie Links - Hickory Golf Course Vlog #52

A shot-by-shot hickory golf course vlog featuring Long Island, NY-based hickory golfer Christian Williams playing pre-1900 gutty golf with fellow golf historian Andy Grow at Fortrose and Rosemarkie Links in the Highlands of Scotland. Williams is an interactive golf historian with a high handicap, sharing his passion for the game through this channel where he shows how to collect, repair, and play with antique, wood-shafted golf clubs. In this round, Williams is using four authentic wooden-shaft golf clubs circa 1895-1902 along with a period-accurate replica golf ball made by MacIntyre Golf, which mimics the feel and performance of an 1890s gutta percha golf ball (details below). Welcome to the channel! The links at Fortrose and Rosemarkie lay on the Chanonary Peninsula in Moray Firth. Golf was first documented on this site in 1702 and the Fortrose and Rosemarkie Golf Club that calls the links home is the 15th oldest golf club in the world, dating to 1793. The current 18-hole layout dates to 1932 and was designed by famed architect and 5-time Open Champion, James Braid. A member of "The Great Triumvirate" with Harry Vardon and J.H. Taylor, Braid was a very active course designer when he wasn't playing and played a role in the design or redesign of more than 400 courses. This round was played by Williams and Grow during their hickory golf trip to the Highlands and Moray regions of Scotland in May 2023.

The “guttie,” as it was called, revolutionized the game of golf when it came on the scene primarily because it made the game much more affordable and accessible than it was during the previous hundreds of years when golf was played with the much more expensive and much less durable “featherie,” which was a leather casing filled with feathers.
