Golf Course Information
Description
Catawba Country Club is conveniently located six miles south of Hickory and five miles west of Newton, North Carolina. Encompassing over 200 acres of picturesque piedmont Carolina landscape, Catawba boasts a tradition of championship caliber golfing excellence.
Historians claim that Club grounds are home to numerous Native American remains and warfare relics from the Catawba Indian tribe, for which the Club and the county were named. The original title of the land was granted by the King of England to Heinrich Weidner, a German immigrant in 1750. History buffs can view the historic stone foundations of Heinreich's residence on property located one mile north of the Club.
Approximately 200 years later, Mr. Alex Shuford, a local Catawba County resident and club member, purchased the farmland from the Weidner family. Shortly thereafter, Shuford was approached by a group of local golf enthusiasts who shared a dream . . . to build an exceptional golf course designed to serve all of Catawba County. Shuford quickly shared the group's vision. He generously donated 203 acres of pristine countryside and the golfing dream soon became a reality. Catawba Country Club was chartered on November 5, 1945; the golf course was formally dedicated on Thanksgiving Day of 1946.
