Our Patron Saint
McKellar is an occasional golf publication named in honor of one Alexander McKellar, a 19th-century Edinburgh tavern-keeper and the man we consider to be the original golf nerd. We bring together the finest writers, illustrators and photographers to celebrate golf’s history, to chart its future and to examine what makes the contemporary sport exciting, from travel and architecture to profiles of its most prominent personalities.
Our Contributors
Issue 1 boasts some of the biggest names in modern golf writing taking on subjects close to their heart. Geoff Shackelford writes about Los Angeles Country Club and the state of modern course architecture. Lorne Rubenstein profiles one of his golfing heroes, the great George Knudson. Thomas Dunne makes the pilgrimage to the Ballybandon Sheep Ranch for a magical golf experience. And more. Much more.
