Abstract/Contents: | Discusses historical aspects of golf, reporting that golf emerged in the United States around 1893. Briefly addresses the question of the oldest golf course west of the Mississippi, and explains that "as our cities grew the courses were pushed out of the cities in search of more land." Details the evolution of course layouts, stating that "the earliest courses were laid out in as little time as to place some stakes in the ground to represent a tee and another green." |
