Bearsted Golf Club

HistoryBearsted Golf Club dates back to 1895, when it was laid out as a nine-hole course on land owned by sir George Hampson. it was originally known as Maidstone Golf Club which played at Bearsted until 1914, when the club split into two.Bearsted Golf Club was set up and remained on the present site, while Maidstone Golf Club moved to Oakwood Park where they lasted until closure in 1962. It is of interest that in 1891 another Maidstone Golf Club was formed and still exists today. It is located at East Hampton, New York, and was originally named Maidstone after the Kent town. This is now one of the oldest and most exclusive golf clubs in the United States.Bearsted came into being thanks to the generosity of Sir George Hampson, who made available the original 52 acres of land on which the first nine holes were constructed.A keen golfer, Sir George became the first president of the club and was to be named club captain on no fewer than six occasions.The Bearsted golf course has undergone many changes and improvements over the years, notably in 1923 when the lease of further land allowed the club to enjoy an 18-hole course measuring 5,137 yards.

Bearsted Golf Club

History ContinueDTo mark the occasion, an exhibition match was played between the great Harry Vardon (six times Open Champion) and Mark Seymour, the professional at Cobham. More than 200 people paid to watch the match, which was duly won by Vardon, who was fortified before play began by the consumption of several large whiskeys!Later, in 1979, after the acquisition of Seager Farm, the course was lengthened still further. Designed by Club Professional Bob Henderson, the official opening of the newly-extended course was marked by a match featuring 30 professionals including Max Faulkner, an Open champion, and former junior member Paul Hoad together with 90 amateur players. Then West Ham and England footballer Trevor Brooking was the special guest.This was not Faulkner’s first visit to enjoy golf at Bearsted. He also played in an exhibition match in 1969 to raise money for Cancer Relief. Bernard Gallagher, Brian Barnes and Nick Job also took part. The club has played host to many exhibition games for charity and Ryder Cup golfers Dai Rees and Peter Alliss were among those to take part in a match in support of the Forces Aid Society in 1965.A feature of Bearsted over the years has been our desire to continue improving both the on-course and off-course experience for members and visitors. Further alterations have brought the course up to its present challenging length of 6,381 yards, par 71.A generous bequest by our neighbour and friend, Kath Seager, allowed us to build the spacious and welcoming clubhouse which is enjoyed by so many. This two-storey building was opened in 2000.

Bearsted Golf Club

The club has been home to some talented young golfers over the years. Trevor Osborn, who had started playing at Bearsted at the age of 7, and won the club’s Junior Cup aged 14, turned professional and enjoyed success Down Under, winning the West Australian Open Golf Championship in 1962.Mandy Langford, another young Bearsted member who had been introduced to the game by her father, Lewis, won the English Girls’ Championship in 1974 and went on to represent Kent and England Under-19s before turning professional. She won several events during the course of her career before becoming a notable administrator in the women’s game.Danielle Masters, who had a strong association with the club as a junior, represented Great Britain and Ireland in the Curtis Cup and one of her sweaters from that event in 2004 is proudly on display in the clubhouse. Danielle went on to turn professional and played on the Ladies’ European Tour. In addition, Kent and England cricketing legends Godfrey Evans and Leslie Ames, who were resident in Bearsted, showed their all-round sporting prowess by winning several golf competitions in the 1950s.

Bearsted Golf Club

SOCiAL ACTiViTiESBearsted rightly prides itself as being a club run for the benefit of its members and there is a spirit of togetherness that can be felt in the clubhouse just as much as out on the links.While there is nothing the membership enjoy more than spending several hours pitting their wits against the golfing test laid before them, they also are not averse to enjoying themselves off the course as well.The club has an active social calendar that includes popular events such as quiz nights and musical entertainment including tribute nights. With bridge clubs and even indoor bowls on occasion, there really is something to appeal to everyone.Notable dates in the calendar such as Christmas and New Year’s Eve are celebrated and we are always looking for new ways to make full use of the club’s superb caterers.Members are able to hire our clubhouse for functions such as weddings, birthday parties and wedding anniversaries and local sporting clubs and organisations also make use of our premises on a regular basis for meetings or evening get-togethers.

tHe Coursein two loops of nine holes, our mature parkland course unusually starts and finishes with a par 3. The first is a gentle opening hole, but look out for the railway running along the right. indeed, all the early holes require solid tee shots, and generally favour the player who draws the ball, as most of the trouble is found on the right of many fairways.Water – either in the form of ponds or ditches, or both – is to be found on several of the holes, particularly on the inward nine.The course features some beautiful landscaped and challenging holes, many with excellent views of the North Downs and the beautiful surrounding Kent countryside.Our course is beautiful all year round, but some of the autumn colours in particular can be amazing to behold.Our greens are all constructed to USGA specification. Our tees have circular distance mark plates set into the ground, and our fairways have green posts denoting 150 yards to the centre of green. Measuring a maximum length of 6,381 yards off the white tees and a Standard Scratch Score of 71 matching its par (73 for Ladies), our course is a challenge for golfers of all abilities to enjoy.Practice facilities include a large practice putting green, driving nets and practice ground - all situated close to the clubhouse and first tee.

tour tHe Courseprepare for your visit to Bearsted by familiarising yourself with each hole over the coming pages and make the most of your round with our hole-by-hole guide. you can prepare yourself for the challenges that await, as well as pick up some invaluable playing tips from our pGa-qualified professional, tim simpson.Hole 1 (Railway) 144 yards, par 3 Our course starts with a short par three with a difficult green sloping down from the bank on the left. Watch out for the railway.Hole 2 (Old School) 342 yards, par 4A difficult blind drive on this straight par four hole, with out of bounds on the left and trouble waiting in the trees on the right.Hole 3 (Sir george Hampson) 462 yards, par 4A very long left-to-right dogleg hole which is difficult to reach in two shots, especially with two fairway bunkers waiting to catch out your second shot.Hole 4 (Honeyhill Woods) 433 yards, par 4A good drive will leave you well placed to reach the green with your second shot. However, mind the ditch and out of bounds on the right.

tour tHe Course ContinueDHole 5 (The Shaw) 363 yards, par 4A straight fairway to the green, but with a ditch hazard to the right. Please play a provisional ball if you think your tee shot may have gone into the woods on the right, but you must play your original ball if you find it.Hole 6 (The Hump) 508 yards, par 5A long par five sloping from left to right, with longer grass and small ditch (not classed as a hazard) strategically placed to help stop your ball from going into the woods - surprisingly, on the right again. Please play a provisional ball if you think your tee shot may have gone into the woods on the right, but you must play your original ball if you find it.Hole 7 (Up And Over) 388 yards, par 4A right to left dogleg to the green located in the valley, where the trees to the left often block out a second shot to the green.Hole 8 (Downs View) 178/214 yards, par 3This par three involves a tee shot across a valley to the well-guarded green.

38

Bearsted Golf Club

Hole 9 (Halfway) 379 yards, par 4This very inviting hole is frequently used for the longest drive competitions, but be careful. Out of bounds awaits a loose tee shot to the left, and a pond awaits to the right.Hole 10 (Twin Oaks) 295 yards, par 4A relatively short par four with the green just beyond the two tall trees in the distance.Hole 11 (Centenary Bridge) 324 yards, par 4A dogleg right with a very inviting tee shot down the hill, and over the stream and bridge. Beware of the ponds either side of the fairway.Hole 12 (Water Meadow) 399 yards, par 4A good straight drive is called for on this very long par 4 hole, with trouble again waiting for a loose tee shot to the right and the pond on the right for the long hitters.Hole 13 (Birling House) 502 yards, par 5A long straight tee shot is needed on this par five which bends to the left. Strategically placed bunkers await each shot from tee to green.

tour tHe Course ContinueDHole 14 (Reservoir) 382 yards, par 4A tee shot to a wide open fairway sloping from left to right where a ditch and bunker often catch out the unaware. A second shot which strays into the ditch across the fairway is rarely rewarded with a playable third shot.Hole 15 (Seager Way) 511 yards, par 5A ditch across the fairway is in range for the long hitters, and the green is located at the top of the hill on this long par five.Hole 16 (Chapel Lane) 179 yards, par 3A short par three with a tee shot to the green at the bottom of the hill.Hole 17 (Brickfield) 384 yards, par 4A long drive back up the hill again, where a shot to the right of centre is needed to avoid being blocked out by the trees to the left.Hole 18 (Sandy Mount) 172 yards, par 3Our course finishes with a straight downhill par three where the valley in front of the green catches out many players.

Bearsted Golf Club

PRACTiCE FACiLiTiESBearsted Golf Club has some excellent practice facilities for those looking to work on lowering their handicap. Coupled with the tuition offered by our teaching professional tim simpson, it represents the complete game improvement programme.As visitors take the short walk from the car park to the clubhouse they cannot help but notice the immaculately-prepared practice putting green in front of the club. This is the perfect way to acclimatise oneself to the superb USGA-specification greens for which the club is renowned.For those wishing to practice the long game there is a practice area to the rear of the clubhouse between the 2nd and 9th fairways. At either end of the practice ground there are greens with bunkers to work on perfecting those up and downs or sand saves which can make the difference between an average round and a very good one.A pair of practice nets can be found not far from the members’ car park which are ideal for getting loose before taking to the course.
