| Ardsley Country Club -- Feeling you've Mastered your game? |
| Review by: Ben Hogan |
This is by all means a test of every shot you have in your bag...Its open on the front and tight on the back..If you're off the fariway by 10 yrs or more you have trees to handle.....The bunkers are beautiful and deadly...Don't let the lenght of the course fool you, this is not a easy day...Flat on the front, hilly on the back....and the green are fast and fast....If you can aford a caddie take one. They have good caddies who know the greens and will help find your ball and suggest yardage.
If you play five over your handicap, you have had a great day.....Third oldest CC in th country. 1895...Water on some par 3 and one par four that comes into play....Nature and just a beautiful place to see. Ardsley awaits your game to see if your up to the challenge of a legendary golf course..and tip your caddie..play well |

| Huntington Country Club -- Hidden gem |
| Review by: Robert W. Meagher |
This course is one of the hidden gems on Long Island. If you have ever played in Ireland, you will get flashbacks. Being a member for 20+ years and having caddied there prior to that, I have seen many changes and all for the better.
The fact that the course "seems" wide open is a lessen unto itself. The tall grass that surrounds the holes is a true one shot penalty. In June through October, if you hit into the tall fescue, simply turn 90 degrees and pray to get out on the fairway. Rarely can you club up and reach the green. If you are lucky enough to reach the green, good luck holding it. The greens at HCC are small hard and FAST (11+ on the stimp is not uncommon).
If you are looking to take lessons, Jimmy Smoot the PGA pro at Huntington is an excellent teacher who will improve your game whether you are a 1 or a 30 handicap.
