Once again, it was a nine hole course, laid out in three fields which were rented from the Camperdown Estate at a cost of £150. At a meeting in 1932, the course was formally handed over to the newly formed Committee and Downfield Golf Club came into existence. Such was the demand for membership that a decision was made to extend the course to 18 holes.

Fred Walker was appointed as the Club Professional and stayed with the club for 39 years until he retired. He was voted 'Club Professional of the Year' in 1969 and his son, Bobby, at the tender age of 14 reduced the course record to an incredible 63, a reduction of six strokes over the previous best. Bobby Walker went on to win the Scottish professional Championship on two occasions and represented Scotland in the Canada Cup.

As Dundee grew, the requirement for land became paramount and after lengthy negotiations the course was revamped, retaining five original holes and laid out in 1964 in the form it has today.
