Southbridge Golf Club is a fun course that weaves through the development. The course layout offers some challenging holes and is at a fair price.
I have wanted to play Centennial Golf Club for a several years. The course is made up of three 9 hole courses: Meadows, Lakes, and Fairways. The course is carved into the hills of Carmel, NY and offers some great views of the area.
Scotland Run Golf Club offers some great views through the course. The course has strategically placed cranes, tractors and even an airplane (more off this later) is traps to rust. Sounds weird but somehow it worst to add to the chair of the course. The greens can be defined as hilly or even roller coaster like depending on what side of the break you land on compared to the hole location.

Now that we understand the math (Don’t worry no quiz today), what does a slope of 69.0 mean for the white tees at your local golf course?

Mountain View is part of the Mercer County golf courses which includes Mercer Oaks East and West and Princeton Country Club. Mountain View weaves its way through Mercer county and its hills. Some fairway angle left to right or reverse forcing drives to be aimed up hill to stick to the fairway.
Bunker Hill is either hilly or it is flat so the golf course changes its mind through the day. The holes near the clubhouse, which sits atop a hill, offer the greatest challenges with elevation shifts and water running at the hill’s bottom across the fairways. The rest of the golf course is flat but a few doglegs force players to hit smart not far. The rolling hills can make some tee shots somewhat or completely blind. Tribal knowledge helps on these holes.
Heron Glen is fun course that offers subtle challenges. The course has mild elevation changes but some fairways tilt to one side favoring drives to the other side. There are several environmental areas to carry but the course provides drop areas on the other side for shots that do not clear them.
