A tough teetime for non-residents, Danbury’s Richter Park is one of the country’s better municipal courses and likely the best public course in Western Connecticut. The course is far from perfect but is worth a play due to its hilly terrain and strong variety over a tree-lined, hazard-filled property. … More Review: Richter Park Golf Course
Quirky, fun, and very affordable, Pocono Manor is a historic hidden gem that features classic architecture and is well-worth the drive from New York and Philadelphia. I highly recommend this course and can’t wait to play again! … More Review: Pocono Manor Golf Course
Royce Brook East is a solid course with good conditions, fair value, and a decent collection of holes. However, a very boring property fails to leave a strong lasting impression and for this reason it is not among the Garden State’s elite public offerings. … More Review: Royce Brook Golf Club (East)
With solid conditions, a beautiful beachfront setting, and strong variety and challenge, Palm Beach Par 3 is an elite executive course that is well-worth a play for all levels of golfer. … More Review: Palm Beach Par 3 Golf Course
Full of wildly unique holes and gorgeous views, Utah’s Sand Hollow Resort is an epic public course and one I highly recommend. … More Review: Sand Hollow Resort (Championship Course)
One of New York City’s best municipal courses, Bronx’s Split Rock is a challenging and tight layout featuring excellent greens and a classic design. I recommend it and its sister course Pelham Bay to visitors. … More Review: Split Rock Golf Course
One of several classic Ross designs near Pinehurst, Mid Pines is a historic gem full of strategy and excellent individual holes. While I prefer Pine Needles, many consider Mid Pines the second best course in the area and it is certainly well-worth a play. … More Review: Mid Pines Inn & Golf Club
One of the very best public options in Scottsdale, We-Ko-Pa’s Saguaro Course is an excellent Coore/Crenshaw design featuring great variety, strong conditioning, and a beautiful unadulterated setting. I highly recommend this course to all visiting the area. … More Review: We-Ko-Pa Golf Club (Saguaro Course)
The oldest public course in New Jersey, the short but classic Weequahic is one of several quality offerings from the Essex County municipal system. It isn’t the best of the group, but is worth a play and offers good value for the area. … More Review: Weequahic Golf Course
While not quite the “Eighth wonder of the golf world” as Rees Jones likes to say, Cascata is a great public course just outside Las Vegas featuring a memorable layout, tremendous visuals, and a very upscale experience overall. It isn’t cheap but it’s cheaper than Shadow Creek and should be strongly considered by all those planning to golf in Vegas. … More Review: Cascata Golf Club
