Our Golf Professional Team & Services underwent something of a facelift in the Spring of 2019 after the retirement of our then Head PGA Professional, Alastair McLean following 31 Years of tremendous Service at Duddingston.

Prior to that Stuart had developed his reputation as a passionate & proficient Instructor over a 10 year spell at Ladybank Golf Club then latterly as Head of Instruction at The Gleneagles Hotel Golf Academy.

His career as a PGA Professional started way back in 1993 at Kirkcaldy Golf Club where he served his Apprenticeship.

Stuart’s arrival didn’t just bring a new face to the Professional Shop but also a fresh approach to the role with the introduction regular Digital Communication and a State Of The Art Indoor SW:ING Studio & Golf Simulator.

This Facility is not only fairly unique to a Golf Club in this area but also allows Stuart and his Team to deliver the very highest level of both Instruction and Club Fitting, and add to Stuart’s mantra of ensuring every Golfer is matched to the most suitable equipment to enable them to perform and enjoy their Golf as best they can.

This is reflected in the quality and comprehensive range of Products stocked in the Professional Shop which not only caters for all Golfing needs, but also allows the Golfer to test & trial everything before they purchase.
