Golf started in Observatory over a 9-hole course in 1912 and Observatory Golf Club was officially established in 1914, with the course extended to 18 holes in The course is not that long, but with narrow fairways & smaller greens, is a true test of intellectual golf. The current Committee has been working over the past years to improve the course, with a bunker renovation plan, additional irrigation on the fairways & small cosmetic projects on the course itself. The Clubhouse has seen many changes in the past two years, with a newly renovated Halfway House, function room extension & renovation of in the bar. Further, the Henning brothers learnt to play their golf at Observatory. The out of bounds boundary fence running along the right hand side of the narrow fairway, with a tree line along the left hand side, is intimidating enough to make many a golfer leave the driver in the bag & rather use a safe iron shot off the tee. Bunkers guard the long, narrow green left and right with a steep slope off to the left if you miss the green.
