I live in Burlington County, it's in southern New Jersey and Ive played quite a few courses around me, but Im looking for any hidden gems anywhere. I've looked into golfphilly.com they have five courses throughout philly. Anybody live in the area with any courses they've played?

I grew up in Burlington County. Where have you played? I've played a bunch of courses in the area as well, but it's been a while since I lived in NJ. Riverwinds in West Deptford is a fun and challenging course http://www.riverwinds.org/ . Also check out Pine Hills. It's a fairly new course and very nice, http://www.golfpinehill.com . There are some decent munis and public courses in philly too, there's a course in West Philly that I played once, but I can't remember the name.

Both pretty nice courses

A Philly boy made good and owns two gorgeous courses in North East MD. They are easily accessible from S. Jersey or Philly, less than an hour south. He is a golfer's golfer and the course is set up for player comfort and enjoyment, with ample signage, phenomenal conditions, and a great staff.

Mr. Barbin, the owner, also is a leading supporter (and might have founded) that area's Victory Golf Pass, which offers access to a ton of courses at discount, with money from Pass sales supporting a charitable cause, which I don't remember all that well.

Check it out at http://www.chesapeakegolf.com .

Or Whitemarsh. Or Philadelphia Cricket...

Merion's so pedestrian. Only the common folk play it.

    • 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.
