WAITANGI GOLF
CLUB
The Waitangi Course not only provides an exciting and
ever changing challenge to the golfer but also the most
tremendous panorama of sea and island views over the Bay
of Islands and Russell, river and estuary views over Waitangi
and Opua and rolling bush and forest views inland over
Mount Bledisloe and Puketona. These views are complemented
by well groomed greens and fairways surrounded by areas
of flowering native trees which provide sanctuary for
many varieties of native birds.
As many visiting golfers, particularly those from overseas,
claim Waitangi is truly millionaires country for all to
enjoy.In 1932 the then Governor General of New Zealand,
Lord Bledisloe and his wife Lady Bledisloe purchased just
over one thousand acres of land on the Waitangi Peninsular
and donated it to the inhabitants of New Zealand as a
place of historic interest and recreational enjoyment
for their benefit and use in perpetuity. This land is
known as the Waitangi National Trust and is now administered
and managed under the terms of the original gift by the
Waitangi National Trust Board.

WHANGAREI GOLF CLUB
Way back in 1907 the forerunner of Whangarei Golf Club
was established. Called the Marsden Golf Club, it was
set up between the Waiaohia stream and the western hills
on a property owned by O.E. Weaver. Although those early
pioneers "got weaving", so to speak, they were
thwarted by wetness, wandering cows and belligerent bulls
while the fashion in golf footwear were gumboots.
The club shifted to Hunter and Wilson's
sale yards in 1910. But this venue was also temporary
and in 1916 Mt Denby, an area of 132 acres, was leased.
The official re-naming of the old Marsden
name came about in 1917. The club today owes a debt
of gratitude to frisky cattle which forced a move from
the old sale yards. Yet the trials and tribulations
associated with creating a really good golf course were
still in the hand-wringing stage. The property at Mt
Denby was a wilderness of gorse with the only semblance
of a fairway being a paddock near that famous double
Norfolk Pine which became the club's landmark. Perhaps
its natural V for Victory sign stimulated the officials'
continuing determination despite the fact that they
still were required to host ten cows and two horses.
But more land was brought into line as time went by
until Mt Denby possessed twelve holes.
In 1930 a decision was made to proceed
with an eighteen hole layout. Gradually a course emerged
that became the pride of Northland in golfing circles.
When you first drive in past the welcoming sign you
will see no evidence of the almost 75 year war with
nature. Instead you will enjoy a remarkably beautiful
golf course with some very tight driving holes and some
narrow approaches into superb greens.
