Brora Golf Club
In 1923 James Braid, five times Open Champion and a prolific designer of golf courses, visited Brora and redesigned the 18 holes into a par 72, 6,217 yard layout which has stood the passing of time.
This challenging test of links golf is about 90 minutes from Dalcross. James Hughes-Hallett, grandfather of the owner of Dalcross, is seen in a photograph of the club bar. In full regimental dress - all 20 stone (280 pounds) of him!
"Brora has some interesting local rules. A flock of sheep is housed in the middle of the course and they are free to roam all over! As a result each green and some tees have electric fencing around them!"
