A Ross/Tillinghast design characterized by small greens, wonderful rocky terrain, and old-school charm, Wykagyl is one of the best and most underrated courses in New York and a course absolutely worth seeing. … More Review: Wykagyl Country Club
One of the best clubs in the golf-rich Philadelphia area, Aronimink features a classic and historic Donald Ross parkland design with a particularly strong set of greens and impeccable conditioning. This is an ideal members’ course, a championship layout, and a course well-worth playing if given the opportunity. … More Review: Aronimink Golf Club
A municipal Jersey Shore course with an interesting history, Hominy Hill is a bit repetitive in my opinion, but features strong conditioning and value, and is a solid option for Monmouth County residents. If you are in the area, I’d recommend a round here but know that obtaining a teetime will be tough. … More Review: Hominy Hill Golf Course

The back nine’s hilly terrain and repetitive design held the course back, but it was still well-worth a play if given the opportunity. Sadly, the course closed in 2024 amidst financial difficulties. … More Review: Green Brook Country Club
Marine Park is clearly one of the best municipal courses in the NYC system with strong conditions, good value, and a linksy, seaside location, but is hurt by a flat terrain and somewhat repetitive layout. It is worth a play if in the area. … More Review: Marine Park Golf Course
The only 9-hole course at Crystal Springs Resort, Minerals offers strong value, decent variety, and good conditions on a hilly terrain. At just a par 31, this is a course I recommend to both novices and better golfers looking for some practice. … More Review: Minerals Golf Club
Although many things have changed for the worse since it opened in 1934, Durand Eastman still contains plenty of attractive architecture and is one of the best restoration candidates in America (@GilHanse).
