ABOUT OUR CLUB

We started the Lockhart Travel Club to provide a practical way for our members to satiate that hunger for world-class golf exploration and adventure.

Membership

Our members represent some of the world’s greatest clubs and have many things in common. Not the least is the desire to explore, share the greatest golf experiences and join like-minded individuals around the world who identify themselves in the exact same way they do.

The club is made up of golfers who have been frustrated not to be able to travel, play golf and tick off their bucket list of courses and are now more determined than ever to play more golf than they ever have.

Our members are driven to see and play the best courses in the world, and they will leap at opportunities to do so once those opportunities present themselves through the club network.

THE ORIGIN OF OUR NAME



The Lockhart Travel Club is named after Robert Lockhart, a Scotsman living in New York City traveling back and forth between the two in the late 1800’s as a linen merchant. On one fateful crossing in 1887 he brought back with him a box of golf clubs, purchased from Old Tom Morris himself.

Lockhart proceeded to introduce his curious friends to the funny hooked sticks and thus the American golfing spark was ignited, solidifying an indelible link between the old and new worlds of this game we all love.

 

OUR LOGO



Our logo is derived from the ship Robert Lockhart sailed on, thus becoming one of the first true golf travelers and introducing this great game to America. 

Ours is a community of golfers who share this same spirit. As leaders of this club, we take great pleasure in connecting these individuals with one another and planning unique, unforgettable opportunities for them throughout the year.

In our view, “once in a lifetime” just isn’t enough.
