The golfing term "links" refers to a certain type of landscape, typically Scottish, with undulating dunes and native (Scottish) vegetation, usually in a windy coastal place, used to develop a certain type of golf course. The game suits golfers who can drive long and low to stay out of the wind. Or so I am told - the only handicap I have when it comes to golf is my golfing ability. But this 1922 article from The Cootamundra Herald about the Gunning Golf Club states that the club thanked Mr Massey "for his permission to use 'Arabula' for the purpose of making links". Could this be the name of the property on which the the Gunning Golf Club now resides? If you know more, please email us and let us know!
