| 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.

| Hoosick Falls Country Club -- Challenging Slopes |
| Review by: Kevin Phillips |
Nicely manicured, well kept grounds and a helpful staff was a first good impression. Greens fees were reasonable. The sloping fairways were a challenge and bring out the best or worst in you. Not being an overly long course but narrow at points, made it a pleasure to play. The greens were fast even after the morning watering. Top it off with some nice views, a great little course!!! |
