Born in Earlsferry in 1875, Andrew Herd Scott started playing golf from a young age, learning from the good players whom he caddied for around the Elie area. He was also fortunate to be the nephew of George Forrester, the renowned club maker with whom he served his apprenticeship before spending time at Prestwick with Charles Hunter who had succeeded Tom Morris as the professional. 

This is the golf medal A.H. Scott won in 1897 at Earlsferry Thistle Golf Club. Earlsferry Thistle has a rich history, including counting James Braid among its former membership. 1" x 5/8".
