Old photograph of Balcomie Golf Course by Crail, East Neuk of Fife, Scotland. The Crail Golfing Society is a Scottish golf club established in February 1786 in the Golf Hotel, Crail, Fife. The society is the seventh oldest golf club in the world. Its oldest course, Balcomie, was formally laid out by Old Tom Morris in 1894, but competitions were played there since the 1850. The land upon which golf is played straddles the coast of easternmost promontory of Fife, known as Fife Ness. Balcomie has the unusual combination of three par fives, six par threes and nine par fours, producing a tough par of 69.
