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 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.

I am in the market for a new golf bag. I like walking so I want something that is light, easy on the back but also durable. Some of the names I have found interesting are DaTrek go lite pro & Sun mountain 4 5 . What bag would you suggest for someone who prefers to walk the course ?

I am looking for an instructor in or near Manhattan. Any recommendations ?

I will be going to maui in the first week of September. What are some interesting courses I can play at ? The plantation course is on my list. Any website where I can get cheaper tee-times in Maui ?

Agreed but if it ingrains distance control on putts between 5 to 45 feet it might be worth it. Not really sure how effective this thing is though.

Has anyone used the puttist ? Looks like a really cool idea to ingrain distance control on your putts . It is a bit pricey though. http://www.puttist-usa.com/

Next time you go up there, try Eagles Nest. Its an awesome course as well, in the same league as Angus Glen.
-
how much does it cost to be fitted for all the clubs ? Any idea. Although I still consider myself a high handicapper , I think fitting might help drop my handicap by 4-5 strokes.

I play with a 10.5 degree driver and hit my driver a fairly decent distance ( 235 - 250 with roll). My playing partners have been commenting that I am hitting the ball too high which is probably robbing me off some distance. Would moving to a driver with lower loft (9.5 or 8.5) help gain some distance ? How difficult is it to hit a lower lofted driver ? Can i get my current driver bent to 9.5 ?

Anyone knows golf courses reachable by public transport in the New York City / Jersey City ? I am sick and tired of playing Van Cortlandt and Dyker. I need some change. I usually play alone or with a friend so zipcar is too expensive for us.

Here is a list of courses I like in the greater toronto area. - Silver Lakes ( North of highway 404). Well kept and challenging. - Osprey Valley . Links style and challenging but fun. - Angus Glen ( pricey, the Canadian Open was held here) - Eagles Nest (again pricey but if you play after 12 , its a good deal) - Ballantrae golf club ( Amazing twilight rate) - Richmond hill Golf club ( course is short 6000 yards. on weekends you can replay for free but cart is not included. Not a bad deal for $89).

I live in the land of 6 hours rounds too, and I chip to keep my sanity. Don't like staring at hackers who insists on walking and take 5 practice swings before blading/shanking their ball. Never had anyone complain about chipping though. Where were you playing ? VC or Dyker ?

I know people say short game is key, but its important to hit your driver on the fairway or close by. A well hit driver will leave you with an 8 iron or less into the green on an average par 4. That is important. I am able to hit 6-8 GIRs per round and I think thats mostly due to my driver. No need to hit it very long, just keep it in play.
