The Nairn Golf Club: The Old Tom Trails

Episode 1 from our Old Tom Trail begins all the way up in the Scottish Highlands at 'The Nairn'. Revered for its fabulous greens, it should come as no surprise that this course sits on land that is packed with history. Nairn shares a history with Amateur Golf that is hard to rival, as host to the Walker Cup, Curtis Cup and the 2021 Amateur (which at the time of release is being contested for).
By modern standards Nairn is not overly long, it is not littered with quirky hazards or gimmicks to give it an identity, its just pure honest links that is difficult to navigate. Penal hazards often flank the fairways, and whilst there is room from the tee, the very subtle contours often leave you puzzled as to where the round went wrong.
Without question though, The Archive Room at Nairn is one of its standout features. A club that is this proud of its history, but progressive in developing the course and the club for future generations is a special and rare cocktail in todays world, and something we were really lucky to sample.

Thanks Jenny - great place to film, and an amazing club

[@thegolfingpilgrim2010]

Fantastic film guys. Am keen to do a Highlands trip next year and will make sure The Nairn is on the itinerary. Is the archive room generally open or do you have to ask in advance?

[@CookieJarGolf]

Thanks Nick - I would definitely contact the club in advance. The members usually have someone who can host and show you around, but definitely make them aware. It’s not to be missed

[@peterbaader334]

A very poetic presentation of this course. But then: All of your clips are poetic. Love watching them. Well done!
