[2] In 1906 Low was appointed as the first president of the Eastern Professional Golfer's Association, which predated the PGA of America.

Low's biggest challenge as a club maker occurred in March 1909 when Baltusrol's original clubhouse burned down.

Low must have suffered the tortures of the damned as he responded to each replacement order, and he must have earned a pretty penny as he did so.

He immediately became interested and decided to try his hand at the Scottish pastime, but he soon found that hitting the little white pill was much harder than it appeared to be.

And he intended to play one round a day, or as often as possible, until he started strenuous training, three weeks before the time of his next fight.

[11] Low resigned from Baltusrol in October 1925, stating that he intended to start a golf course architecture business with Herbert Strong, an Englishman who was his counterpart at The Apawamis Club in Westchester County, New York.

[2] However, when the stock market crashed in 1929 he needed to go back to work and in late 1930 he returned to the United States and became the professional at Huntingdon Valley Country Club, located seven miles northeast of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

In 1936, prior to his retirement years in Florida, Low and his son operated a driving range in Jenkintown, Pennsylvania.

[2] Low and his wife Helen Beale Reid—whom he married on September 14, 1909—had two children, son George Jr. and daughter Dorothy.

[12] Low, who became an American citizen on July 25, 1944,[13][circular reference] died in Clearwater, Florida, on April 17, 1950.
