Club Report

Cochrane Castle Golf Club was established in 1895 at Craigston Farm, Johnstone on land leased by the then Laird, G.L.Houstoun. Charlie Hunter, who replaced Old Tom Morris as professional and greenkeeper at Old Prestwick, carried out the original course layout. Over the years many changes in layout have taken place, the most significant of which followed the compulsory purchase of ground in 1949 by the Town Council for house building.

Getting your ball stolen during an Open Comp is very disappointing, if this is a problem the club have from neighbouring housing estates then perhaps Course Marshals would have been a good idea to stop this sort of incident happening.
