Reid Lockhart - Clubs for Shotmakers
About Us
THE LEGACY
Late in 1887 Robert
Lockhart surprised his close
friend and New York
business associate John
Reid with golf clubs he had
brought back from
Scotland. After being
arrested for hitting balls in
Central Park, they laid out a
crude six-hole course in an
abandoned apple orchard
on a Yonkers meadow.

When a break in the winter weather came on February 22, 1888, Reid and
Lockhart gathered four of their friends to play the first organized round of golf
in this country.
