Featured Golf Course Review:
| Myopia Hunt Club -- The Best course in New England. |
| Review by: T. Roberts |
The 18 holes at Myopia are the best you'll find anywhere in the world. If you're lucky enough to play there, you'll never want to leave. The magnificent track laid out over some of the most beautiful country MA has to offer is quite a sight. It isn't easy either. |

| Review by: Golf Pro |
The scenery is nice and price is about average for a public course, but here's a few pet peaves:
- The course was redesigned a few years back to try to squeeze a few more stokes onto par by making it a par 69 from the original 66. The results were in my estimation, terrible. They basically redesignated two long par 4's into short par fives, combined to par 3's into a par 4, and added a 50 yard new par 3.
- The proshop is run extremely unprofessionally by retirees and kids under 16. I've also witnessed the "owner" hanging around and acting like a yahoo. Let's put it this way, not your typically golf links proprietor!
- The greens are colored during the summer with some bluish dye that gets all over your clothes, clubs, and ball. I suspect it covers up the burned out yellow spots on the greens.
- Finally, I've never seen greens like the ones at this place. They are kept long and are, by far, the slowest I've ever encountered. I've literally seen playing partners skull a wedge from 60 yards and it doesn't even roll off the green. Weird. |
