I live in Jersey City, NJ. Looking around my area, I see two golfing options within reasonable driving distance (around 30 - 40 mins) for the up coming season. 

1) Buy a player's card to play in Union county. golf courses include Galloping Hills and Ashbrook

2) Buy a player's card to play in Essex county. Courses include  Weequahic, Francis Byrne and Hendricks Field.

Which player's card should I purchase ? out of the 2 which offers the best bang for the buck.

There is a golf course in Jersey City now. Skyway Golf Course opened not too long ago. Never played it myself, but it would save you a lot of travel.

I have played it. Its an expensive course (for county residents as well) and only 9 holes. I am looking for an 18 hole course I can play on weekends.

I do this. Union county courses get a lot of play, too. Galloping Hill especially can get real slow if you don't tee off before 10 on the weekends, and all the early morning tee times get taken by the 14 day advanced tee time people. I still make it work for me.

      39, +4. A bit better hip slide stuff. More lateral, less turn with the hips.

      I added to total today by hopping it in on the first hole for an eagle. A short par 4, I hit 4 wood to 110. With a little breeze in my face I hit a 50 degree gap wedge to 2 feet and watched it hop into the hole for an eagle 2!

      Sounds good. Text me if you have any questions. You have a good setup, too, and so long as you can get good camera angles… you should be good. https://skillest.com/@iacas

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By Shindig · Posted

      Day 14 (September 18).  Morning practice, despite questionable weather (it's raining).   Worked on chipping at first, including run-ups with UW and PW;  I've noticed lately some of my near-GIRs are missing forward, with nothing but grass ahead of me, but 20-30 yards to the pin.  After a few misadventures putting those lately, I wanted to at least get a feeling for what a 30-yard chip shot that doesn't have the variance of my quarter lob wedge would feel like.  I still think "putt when you can putt" is right, but... I am less sure I have a 30 yard putt in me.  Range time also, of course, same routine as the past week or so (drill, 3-4 slow shots, etc).   Did not get to the putting green as it was starting to come down a bit more. Darn, it really is raining.  And I thought today would be a perfect day to play, seeing as how it's 9-18 and all.
