NYC Metro Area: Public Grass Ranges

[nevets88]

This is my list. Did I miss any?

LI:

Hamlet Windwatch (Weekends, variable weekdays)

Pine Ridge GC (Weekends end of May)

Spring Lake (Not as good condition as above)

Hamlet Willow (Never been)

NJ:

Neshanic Valley GC (Good rate for balls, pay for short game area)

Charleston Springs

Heron Glen

High Bridge

North of NYC:

Centennial GC (Really expensive, but a great long and short game facility)

Links at Union Vale I think has this new simulated grass - never tried it.

And the Randall's Island grass section - last year was awful. Not worth the high price IMHO.

the listed places for nyc are right but its so rare that they actually have them open. most of the time they make u hit on the mats.

I missed two:

Staten Island Golf Practice Center - 718-317-0101, 9-9, $11 bucket, $14 surcharge, $175 mbrshp

The Brooklyn Golf Center - 718-253-6816, 8-9, $11 bucket, $10 surcharge

I wrote down the info so I have someplace to refer to. Maybe it'll help someone out.

Don't know how good the conditions are. I'll update this thread after I try these places.

Come on NY metro area folks, help me out, I'm walking here! (stupid Midnight Cowboy joke)

Brooklyn Golf Center http://campl.us/4yS Grass a little dodgy but way better than Randall's Island. Grass is open weather permitting, not just weekends. Looks like I'll be going here now instead of schlepping to Jersey.
