rdf:langString New Haven Country Club is a private country club located in Hamden, Connecticut. Founded in 1898 NHCC is one of the oldest golf courses in America. The club was founded as the New Haven Golf Club in downtown New Haven and then moved to newly purchased farmland along Lake Whitney in Hamden later. Notable early members include President William Taft, Walter Camp, Eli Whitney III, Henry Sargent, Frank Bigelow, Winthrop Bushnell, Charles C Claire, and Henry Hotchkiss. The club's PGA Head Golf Professional is William Wallis. The original golf course was completely redesigned in 1921 by two-time Open Champion Willie Park Jr., incorporating the natural elevation changes of the 110-acre plot. In recent years thousands of trees have been cut down to restore the original vistas of Lake Whitney. New Haven Country Club's distinctively fast and large greens are a defining feature of the course. Del Kinney, the former executive director of the Connecticut State Golf Association remarked, “New Haven [Country Club] is very demanding and sneaky tough, but a very fair test. In fact, it’s the best in the state from the perspective of being both fun to play and challenging.”
