Review: Woodbrier Golf Course
A decent little track, pace of play issues and strange hole design make it unlikely I’d recommend Woodbrier to a friend. … More Review: Woodbrier Golf Course

With sweeping elevation changes, an engaging layout, and a price that won’t break the bank, the Links at Greystone is always a fun time and undoubtedly one of the best public courses in the region. … More Review: The Links at Greystone
Every serious golfer should try their hand at Bethpage Black, but given the difficulty getting on, Bethpage Red should not be seen as a consolation prize. This is another pure Tillinghast design and a better option for mid-to-high handicappers. … More Review: Bethpage State Park (Red Course)
The faux-links and modern Twisted Dune is a penal and very memorable public layout near Atlantic City. While not everybody’s cup of tea, this is one of the best public courses in New Jersey and a course I look forward to getting back to. … More Review: Twisted Dune Golf Club

Designer: John Reid (1897), Willie Park Jr. (1915, Redesign), Howard Toomey/William Flynn (1925, Redesign), Tom Doak (1999, Renovation) Location: Northfield, New Jersey History: Atlantic City Country Club undoubtedly has one of the richest histories of any American golf course. Most notably, the term “birdie” was created here in 1903, after Abner Smith hit a “bird of a shot” on … More Review: Atlantic City Country Club
While conditioning leaves a lot to be desired, the views, history, and classic Donald Ross design at Mount Washington are top notch and similar to what I imagine the Greenbrier feels like. I highly recommend a summer weekend at this gorgeous mountain retreat. … More Review: Mount Washington Course
The Oaks is one of the better public courses in Mississippi and offers conditioning and prices that can’t be beat. Anybody visiting the Biloxi-Gulport-Slidell area should keep an eye out for this course. … More Review: The Oaks Golf Club
