Are there any courses and ranges near Manhattan? (accessible by public transportation)

I am moving to NYC next year. I want to continue golfing but I don't think I will have a car. I found some in NJ on Google, but not sure if PATH will take me there.

thanks!

On the West side there is a driving range at Chelsea piers. On the East side there is one at Randalls Island (Near the Triboro Bridge). There are no cousres in Manhattan. Van Cortland Park in the Bronx is close by public trans. Here is a link to public golf in the NY metro area:

There's a shuttle that runs to Randall's Island from 3rd Ave. If you have a bike, you can ride to RI and get there faster than any other mode of transport. I've seen golfers riding there with a golf bag on their back. Only in big cities do you see this.

If you can get some friends together, zipcar and mint are very convenient and decently priced car sharing options. Better than Hertz IMHO.

The page sabram provided is very good.

Kill slow play. Allow walking. Reduce ineffective golf instruction. Use environmentally friendly course maintenance.

    • Yes. If you choose to take the ball out of the bunker instead of taking maximum available relief… it costs a stroke.
    • I got another one today....Number 17. Par 5 that has water left and right on the layup. I smacked a drive down the left side and got a little lazy on the layup and fanned my 6 iron. With 112 to a crowned green I got it to 3 feet and birdie!  Only 5 and 15 is left for this year! 
    • Maybe I didn’t explain this properly. Back and front can be confusing.  There was no place in the bunker that didn’t have 2-3 inches of rain water in it, except for a small spot on the slope nearest the pin. If I had dropped there I would be moving 6-7 feet closer to the hole. Since my ball was just inside the bunker, farthest side from the hole, I dropped one club length backward, which brought me out of the bunker. I could not have hit from that deep of water. Are you saying I would have had to take a penalty stroke due to rain water? 
    • Day 550, May 5, 2024 Got a good hour in with a typical (for me) two-stick setup: pool noodle angled in front, yardstick on the ground angled 45° behind me.
    • Day 130: Cinco de Mayo Day 7/24 of Full Speed Spectrum training. Difficult training day after struggling to certify my warmup yesterday, and today. Finished 13 mph lower than my training speed on Thursday. Hope to hit some balls today.
