Golf--Florida Country clubs--Florida Description The Sanford Country Club and Golf Course was originally purchased as a portion of a 20,000-acre tract by General Joseph Finegan for $40. In 1870, Henry Shelton Sanford (1823-1891) purchased the tract and sold some of it in 1878 to Charles Amory. In 1922, the City of Sanford bought 152-acres to design and construct a municipal 18-hole golf course. The course opened in October of 1922 with only four holes available for playing. The remainder of the golf course was opened in September of 1924. From 1927 to 1939, the golf course and country club experienced once of its most successful periods, with visits from some of golf's greatest athletes, such as Gene Sarazen and Walter Hagen. The club, for a time, saw a state of disrepair and depression. For a short time, the club became the Seminole County Club after renovation in 1945. Then, in the late 1940s, the New York Giants acquired the Mayfair Inn property for Spring Training, which allowed them to take control of the golf course. This led to the most prosperous period of the golf course and country club becoming a part of the PGA tour between 1955 to 1957, seeing players like Arnold Palmer tee-off on the course. Now called the Mayfair Country Club, the club and golf course is located at 3536 Country Club Road in Sanford, Florida.

Dear Sir: Your name was given to me by our mutual friend, Mr. Walter Fairbanks, who thought possibly you might be interested in mapping out a golf course at Sanford, Florida. A number of the leading people at this place have recently purchased a tract of land which is to be developed into a Country Club and Golf Course. They wish to begin construction in the near future of a nine-hole course and will want someone to lay this off, having in mind nine additional holes at some time in the near future. In the event you would be interested in taking this matter up, will you kindly write upon receipt of this letter to Mr. S.O. Chase, Sanford, Florida, stating terms, etc. for a visit to the place, a survey, with a map showing the greens the hazards and full instructions to be followed in getting the course into shape in event you were not in position to give it your entire supervision until completed. The ground is rolling and there are some natural hazards that could be worked up in making it a very attractive course. The writer is taking the liberty of writing this directly to you and asking you to get in touch with Mr. S.O. Chase so that no time will be lost.

This led to the most prosperous period of the golf course and country club becoming a part of the PGA tour between 1955 to 1957, seeing players like Arnold Palmer tee-off on the course. In 2007, Maece Taylor, Inc. signed a 20-year lease with the City of Sanford for the golf course. In 2011, Maece Taylor filed a lawsuit against Sanford, claiming that the lease is invalid due to a clause in the contract that states that Donald Ross, a critically-acclaimed designer in the 1920s and 1930s, designed the golf course. The Chase papers contain letters that suggest that Cameron Trent designed the golf course, not Ross.

Dear Syd: SANFORD COUNTRY CLUB: Note yours of the 10th reporting on the completion of the Trent contract and the good work done by him in opening the golf course at the old Amery place. If the balance of the work progresses as rapidly as the first thirty days, you will have an old, seasoned course there inside of twelve months. Just as soon as you can get around to it, start in on regular rounds of at least twice a week and as much oftener as you can. It will do you lots of good. Even R.C. is quite a golfer, and goes out at it with just as much vigor as a younger man. When we were together over in Switzerland he wanted to play all the time and almost killed the caddies. He insisted on playing 27 holes before lunch and then played 9 holes as the caddies were fagged out and had to rest up. Randall's Italian caddy, an old woman of about 70, could not speak a word of English but she indicated her fatigue by opening her mouth and pointing to it with the forefinger of her right hand, and rubbing the place where her stomach should be with her left hand. The only reason the old warehorse stayed with the deal so long was owing to the fact that I beat him on the firs t18 holes and he was trying to win the next nine, but he failed. After you have done your nine holes twice and walked 6030 yards it will aggregate about four miles when you take into consideration all the unnecessary steps you make in playing from side to side and following your ball around. I am looking forward to a try-out at it. You had better postpone buying your golf clubs until you come to Jacksonville or when you are in Philadelphia. My advice would be to buy just as few clubs as possible at the start, and would suggest first a brassy driver, a putter, a mid-iron and a mashie. This will give you the necessary assortment and you can pick up the other clubs as you find necessary.

Golf--Florida Country clubs--Florida Description The Sanford Country Club and Golf Course was originally purchased as a portion of a 20,000-acre tract by General Joseph Finegan for $40. In 1870, Henry Shelton Sanford (1823-1891) purchased the tract and sold some of it in 1878 to Charles Amory. In 1922, the City of Sanford bought 152-acres to design and construct a municipal 18-hole golf course. The course opened in October of 1922 with only four holes available for playing. The remainder of the golf course was opened in September of 1924. From 1927 to 1939, the golf course and country club experienced once of its most successful periods, with visits from some of golf's greatest athletes, such as Gene Sarazen and Walter Hagen. The club, for a time, saw a state of disrepair and depression. For a short time, the club became the Seminole County Club after renovation in 1945.

Dear Syd: This morning's Time-Union carries a Sanford news item regarding the formation of the Sanford Country and Golf Club, with you as President. Here's hoping the Club will meet with every success and be the means of having you take an interest in the game and playing frequently. Even your brother Randall finally weakened, and has taken up golf and now has substituted golf for horseback exercise. Naturally none of the other old fellows can play as good a game as the young fellows, but we can have just as much and perhaps more fun. Old Colonel Kay plays golf, and recently when someone suggested that he take lessons, he refused indignantly, with the statement that if he reduced his game from 150 to 100, he would lose 33-1/3% of his exercise, and he did not want to have his game any better than it was. Yesterday I played at the St, Augustine Country Club. This course was laid out by Donald Rose. It was first opened in 1917 and was exceedingly rough. This season the greens are perfect, You had better find out what kind of a grass they are using not only on the greens but also on the course. There is also a great deal in having the greens when they are originally built, constructed after the plans of an expert. You are fortunate in having rolling land on the old Amory Place, which will enable the golf engineer to give you really a better course than many of those that have been built in Florida. When you are read to have the plan passed upon, will be glad to do so, and will bring with me someone from the Florida Country Club who knows more about the matter.

In 1870, Henry Shelton Sanford (1823-1891) purchased the tract and sold some of it in 1878 to Charles Amory. In 1922, the City of Sanford bought 152-acres to design and construct a municipal 18-hole golf course. The course opened in October of 1922 with only four holes available for playing. The remainder of the golf course was opened in September of 1924. From 1927 to 1939, the golf course and country club experienced once of its most successful periods, with visits from some of golf's greatest athletes, such as Gene Sarazen and Walter Hagen. The club, for a time, saw a state of disrepair and depression. For a short time, the club became the Seminole County Club after renovation in 1945. Then, in the late 1940s, the New York Giants acquired the Mayfair Inn property for Spring Training, which allowed them to take control of the golf course. This led to the most prosperous period of the golf course and country club becoming a part of the PGA tour between 1955 to 1957, seeing players like Arnold Palmer tee-off on the course. Now called the Mayfair Country Club, the club and golf course is located at 3536 Country Club Road in Sanford, Florida.

In 2007, Maece Taylor, Inc. signed a 20-year lease with the City of Sanford for the golf course. In 2011, Maece Taylor filed a lawsuit against Sanford, claiming that the lease is invalid due to a clause in the contract that states that Donald Ross, a critically-acclaimed designer in the 1920s and 1930s, designed the golf course. The Chase papers contain letters that suggest that Cameron Trent designed the golf course, not Ross.

Dear Syd: WILLIAM LANGFORD: WEST PALM BEACH GOLF CLUB: This party's name was given to me last evening by Mr. Walter Fairbanks who at one time held the championship at the same time of California and Colorado. He is over seventy years old and a mighty good folfer now. He tells me that William Langford is a Yale graduate and has taken up golf course engineering and landscape gardening and is developing now a very satisfactory golf course at West Palm Beach. I am enclosing a copy of a letter to this party, thinking possibly if you have not closed a deal with Cameron Trent you might wish to figure with Langford. At all events no harm will be done even if you do not. Do not feel obliged to do any business with Langford after you receive his message.

Dear Mr. Taylor: First let me thank you for being instrumental in giving Mr. Wilson and the writer such a pleasant day at the St. Augustine Country Club. We enjoyed it immensely and the writer's greatest regret is that he does not play a game of golf that is sufficiently good to make it interesting to you. We certainly must get together in the near future but cannot at the present time fix a date. My brother was very much interested in my letter to him about the splendid condition of the greens. He wants to know the variety of grass that is used not only on the greens but also on the course. Would it be possible for you to find out this from some of those in charge of this Department? Will very much appreciate this information as we would also like the same for the Florida Country Club. With personal regards, Yours very truly, Chase & Company Chase and Company Chase, Joshua Coffin country club Florida Country Club golf golf course grass Munson House St. Augustine St. Augustine Country Club Taylor, A.

Golf--Florida Country clubs--Florida Description The Sanford Country Club and Golf Course was originally purchased as a portion of a 20,000-acre tract by General Joseph Finegan for $40. In 1870, Henry Shelton Sanford (1823-1891) purchased the tract and sold some of it in 1878 to Charles Amory. In 1922, the City of Sanford bought 152-acres to design and construct a municipal 18-hole golf course. The course opened in October of 1922 with only four holes available for playing. The remainder of the golf course was opened in September of 1924. From 1927 to 1939, the golf course and country club experienced once of its most successful periods, with visits from some of golf's greatest athletes, such as Gene Sarazen and Walter Hagen. The club, for a time, saw a state of disrepair and depression. For a short time, the club became the Seminole County Club after renovation in 1945. Then, in the late 1940s, the New York Giants acquired the Mayfair Inn property for Spring Training, which allowed them to take control of the golf course. This led to the most prosperous period of the golf course and country club becoming a part of the PGA tour between 1955 to 1957, seeing players like Arnold Palmer tee-off on the course. Now called the Mayfair Country Club, the club and golf course is located at 3536 Country Club Road in Sanford, Florida.

Golf--Florida Golf courses--Florida Description The bend facing the direction of the tee at the Sanford Country Club and Golf Course in 1922. The land for the club and course was originally purchased as a portion of a 20,000-acre tract by General Joseph Finegan for $40. In 1870, Henry Sanford purchased the tract and sold some of it in 1878 to Charles Amory. In 1922, the city of Sanford bought 152-acres to design and construct a municipal 18-hole golf course. The course opened in October of 1922 with only four holes available for playing. The remainder of the golf course was opened in September of 1924. From the year 1927-1939, the golf course and country club experienced once of its most successful periods, seen some of golf's greatest athletes such as Gene Sarazen and Walter Hagen. The club, for a time, saw a state of disrepair and depression. For a short time, the club became the Seminole County Club after renovation in 1945. Then, in the late 1940s, the New York Giants received the Mayfair Inn for Spring training which allowed them to take control of the golf course. This led to the most prosperous period of the golf course and country club becoming a part of the PGA tour between 1955 to 1957, seeing players like Arnold Palmer tee-off on the course. Now called the Mayfair Country Club, the club and golf course is located at 3536 Country Club Road in Sanford, Florida.

Golf--Florida Country clubs--Florida Description The Sanford Country Club and Golf Course was originally purchased as a portion of a 20,000-acre tract by General Joseph Finegan for $40. In 1870, Henry Shelton Sanford (1823-1891) purchased the tract and sold some of it in 1878 to Charles Amory. In 1922, the City of Sanford bought 152-acres to design and construct a municipal 18-hole golf course. The course opened in October of 1922 with only four holes available for playing. The remainder of the golf course was opened in September of 1924. From 1927 to 1939, the golf course and country club experienced once of its most successful periods, with visits from some of golf's greatest athletes, such as Gene Sarazen and Walter Hagen. The club, for a time, saw a state of disrepair and depression. For a short time, the club became the Seminole County Club after renovation in 1945. Then, in the late 1940s, the New York Giants acquired the Mayfair Inn property for Spring Training, which allowed them to take control of the golf course. This led to the most prosperous period of the golf course and country club becoming a part of the PGA tour between 1955 to 1957, seeing players like Arnold Palmer tee-off on the course. Now called the Mayfair Country Club, the club and golf course is located at 3536 Country Club Road in Sanford, Florida.
