Not too familiar with that area, but I don't really get north of Newark unless I'm traveling. How are the courses around there?

Not too bad. There plenty of munis to choose from where not far from where I live. I play Rockleigh and Overpeck mostly which are both typically well maintained and offer a nice challenge. Blue Hill in Rockland County, NY is a short drive and is excellent for a muni as well. If I want something nicer I’ll head to one of the Crystal Springs courses. No complaints regarding options.

Where are you usually playing?

Somerset County courses mostly. They have Neshanic Valley which is really nice for a muni.

Once in a while I'll drag @nevets88 out to a golf course and we usually pick a good course neither one of us plays regularly. Last time we played Highbridge Hills, but it was a toss up between that or Heron Glen.

I've only been to Crystal Springs once and played Crystal Springs. I did not like that course. It had some nice looking holes but I didn't like the layout. Should probably head back and try some of the others.

I’ve played that one as well. I liked it but I only really remember the one hole where you hit the ball off a cliff to the green. That and how tight the houses were to the course.

I tried to get on Neshanic once but there was a long frost delay and I was short on time so I ended up at the Stonybrook executive course instead. I definitely need to revisit.

Welcome to TST!  I grew up in Bergen County, but didn't really start playing golf until I moved away.  Definitely some good courses up there.

      Day 24 (4 Dec 25) - Spent about an hour working with the new 55° wedge in the backyard.  Kept all shots to under 20yds.  Big focus - not decelerating thru downswing and keeping speed up with abbreviated backswing.  Nothing like hitting a low flighted chip with plenty of check spin and then purpose to float a pitch of similar distance.

      Day 114 12-4 Put some work in on backswing, moving the hips correctly, then feeling over to lead side. Didn't hit any balls was just focused on keeping flowy and moving better. I'll probably do another session tonight and add in some foam balls.

      Didn't say anything about your understanding in my post.  Well, if you are not insisting on alignment with logic of the WHS, then no.  Try me/us. What do you want from us then?? You are not making sense. You come here and post in an open forum, question a system that is constructed with logic, without using any of your own and then give us a small window of your personal experience to support your narrative which at first sight does not makes sense.  I mean, if you are a point of swearing then I would suggest you cut your losses and humor a more gullible audience elsewhere. Good heavens.
