Yale (New Haven Ct.) has a beautiful course. It is a old style course that was cut through the woods. I played it about 20-25 times during the 1990's when a buddy of mine was doing all the asbestos removal throughout the campus. The pro hooked us up with tee times almost anytime we wanted. Its not real long, and not as hilly as many other courses in the area. Some of the best greens that I ever putted on.

I played the U Maryland course this spring. I was pretty nice and they have done a lot of work on the course and club house. Staff was very friendly. Being an "older" Boston area guy, I would recommend heading south if you want to play more than March to November.

If you do choose U Maryland, remember to "Fear the Turtle"!

Rutgers golf course looks very nice. I'm playing there tomorrow. Yipee!

If you never played there before, make sure your entire group is there early. I've seen guys turned away for showing up 5-10 minute before their tee time.


Well. If you can come to DC area, UMD @College Park has a nice course. For the layout wise, it's the one of kind good course. I played there 5-6 years ago first time and amazed how nice its layouts are but management got terrible so the condition was more like avg. managed muni. courses. BUT.. They had renovated the course around 2007-09 gradually and hosted 2009, 2010 Nationwide's Melwood Prince William Classic. Still not cream of top condition but much better. I'm playing there this coming Saturday morning. I may add few updates on the course condition. UMD students get a huge discount to play there :)

    • Rule 1.2b refers you to a section in the Committee Procedures (Section 5I) that helps explain what a Code of Conduct may (and may not) do.  Defining acceptable behavior (including smoking) and applying Stroke of DQ penalties are certainly within the Committee's authority. That Code of Conduct certainly should be available, either in written form or in a webpage accessible to all.  It may not show up on the "standard local rules" for an organization, the "hard card", as it sounds like its a policy of this particular golf course. Assuming that's the case it should show up on the Notice to Players for this particular event.  If you can't find it, ask someone, send an email, try to find out.   In summary, yes the Committee can DQ (or withdraw) a Player for smoking, even before or between rounds.  But its up to you to go from there, communication is the key here.

    • Hmm... I not sure I completely understand. If the course has a no smoking policy, then he shouldn't smoke at the course.  I'm assuming since you are aware of the policy, it must be written down somewhere.  As far as getting disqualified from the tournament, I would think that would be up to the committee. But it feels like it is within their power to disqualify, so why take the chance?
