David mclay kidd biography template

Born and raised in Scotland, son of a Golf Course Superintendent, David has been around golf his entire life and not just any golf but the oldest and finest courses in the world. As the son of a superintendent he saw ‘behind the curtain’ what made these courses stand the test of time, what intrigued generations of Scottish golfers.

David is rightful proud of his Scottish Roots, most of his relatives still live there. He wears his kilt with pride and still talks with a Scottish brogue now softened from the many years now spent in his adoptive home in Bend, Oregon, USA where he lives with his wife Tara and daughter Ailsa.

As a child, David witnessed the passion his father, Jimmy Kidd had for the game and the courses it is played across.

Jimmy passed along a respect for the game, the courses and especially the history of its forebears, be they the great triumvirate of Colt, Vardon &#; Braid or the original Golf Superintendent (Head Greenkeeper) Old Tom Morris.
