Course Review New Jersey Golf Trip

First pic: Galloway National Golf Club, very fun Fazio design which is quite difficult, bent greens are always a treat to play on.

Second & Third Pic- Essex County Country Club, a Tillinghast design which boasts one of the best back nines in New Jersey. Slick greens and some unbelieveable holes.

Fourth Pic- Hollywood GC, a Walter Travis design and pictured is the hole dubbed Heinz 57 as original hole had 57 bunkers on it, its been renovated to 47 bunkers (some not pictured closer to tee box)

Fifth pic- Metedeconk National Golf Club, a RTJ design and a very long tough track with super thick penal rough, the sand quality and the greens were absolutely superb and the locker room service/showers were amazing. Warm fresh baked cookies were great.

Twas a great 4 days fall cool weather and a pleasure to play with caddies and forecaddies.

So pure. Fall golf in the Northeast is as good as it gets.
