Does anyone know of any good public golf courses near Boston, MA. I'm heading their for some college visits and really would like to play some golf while I'm there. Thanks!

whats your budget...

Granite Links in Quincy, MA is a decent track. 5 minutes from Boston, the course actually provides a great view of the city skyline. $$$$ 115

Franklin Park (William J Devine Golf Course) Roxbury, MA... Rough neighborhood but the oldest public golf course in the country. A classic Donald Ross, about 35-40 , right across the street from the Franklin Park Zoo

i just played up there two weekends ago for a golf trip and i played a great track about an hour and a half north of boston in maine.

check it out--i couldn't believe the quality of the course and greens relative to the price--$65 on a weekend morning.

    • Yes, this is the 2024 model. DSG ruined what Callaway perfected for most golfers. A darn good 3 piece golf ball. Now it's a 2 piece cheap ball. To me a 2 piece ball is fine and a 3 piece budget ball is better. I prefer a slightly harder ball, something in the 65-75 compression range that will perform similar to the old Gamer. The Titleist tru-feel is pretty good. I planned on giving Maxfli straightfli a try.
    • Is that the current generation Gamer? Another old standby for a firm and inexpensive ball is Pinnacle.  There are two models, the Rush and the Soft, but I don’t know what compression they are.
    • Good advice, but according to DSG website it is a 45 compression ball. My current ball is the Top-flite Gamer at 70. 45 is too low for me to go.
    • The 3 piece Maxfli Trifli is 2 dozen for $35.  The Trifli does not feel as soft as the Maxfli Softfli, which is why I like it. Other options would be one of the Srixons, which have a buy 2 get 1 free offer.
    • I have been carrying a 7 wood more often this year.  It’s especially handy if you have a downhill lie to an uphill green.  It’s also handy if the rough on the course is deep.
