Deceivingly difficult, Feb 27, 2004

reviewer: Pedro from WA

I'm a scratch player who has played the course as a guest about 20 times in the past 4 years. I have never been able to break par, even on my best days. The trees are very punishing. The doglegs also make the course play longer than it really is. You need to be strategic to score well there. All in all, it is very well manicured and challenging in a good way.

Beautiful, Feb 26, 2004

reviewer: Anonymous from Chicago USA

What appears to be a short course on the card can really test the golfing ability in you. Managing the tricky doglegs and slippery greens Green Acres might leave you begging for mercy by the end of the round. Beautifully manicured the greens run what must feel like 12's on a regular basis. Accuracy off the tee is a premium to avoid the heavily forrested rough. A true test of a golfers ability to adapt and manage thier golf.

Panther Valley Golf & Country Club
"Hidden Jewel"
Beautiful and interesting layout that test every aspect of a golfers game. A relatively short course at 6800 yards from the tips with greens that are tiny and undulating. A must Stop when playing the top courses in New Jersey

Forest Hills Golf Club
"A Historic Walk"
I find this course extremely enjoyable to play, not just because of the challenging holes, but because of the history as well. It's my favorite in Augusta (besides the National) and has just been newly renovated to make play even more difficult. Definately recommended.

Ventura Country Club
"Fun course good value"
I have played Ventura many times over the years and have always found it to be an excellent value and a lot of fun. In this day of $ 100.00 green fees,especially with the exchange,this couse is an excellent value. It is well maintained and challenging enough for any golfer. The staff has always been very courteous and helpful, from the time I arrived and had my clubs loaded onto a cart, until I was done and enjoyed the clubhouse fare. All in all an excellent bang for the buck and an extremely pleasurable experience.

Deer Run Golf Course
"Awful customer service."
This course has a nice front nine. As for the back nine... well, that's another story. I haven't met a person yet that has golfed their back nine. I have called many, many times well in advanced for tee times and have requested the back nine, but I haven't had any luck. The manager is so rude that the first time I was at this course I heard him yell at a group because they wanted to know why they couldn't golf the back nine. In fact it is so hard to get on the back nine that it isn't uncommon to have to wait 2-hours to get on the course if you don't get a tee-time in advance. The funny thing is that the front could be so over crouded and there isn't a soul on the back. I even made a comment to the pro at the Grand Rapids golf show, and he just kind of laughed. I would never recommend this course.
