The amber ad from 1971 shows Dundee as the centre of the Scottish golf universe with 3 local courses on offer while reminding everyone that there are plenty more to be found in the surrounding area.
The 3 Dundee courses referred to in the ad are Caird Park, Camperdown & Downfield, and under it are their prices for the same year.
9 hole course @ Cairdie 15p Bargain, there were 2 to choose from as well. red or yellow. Lost many a ba on the hole where you had to drive over the quarry.
ReplyDeleteit was much later the other nine hole course opened
DeleteIf you hit a good drive on the 9 holers you had to beware of bairns hidden in the bushes running out and stealing your ball
ReplyDeleteMy dad was permanently playing golf at either Camperdown or Caird...
ReplyDeleteHow exciting!
