Challenging layout- need your A game

Tight fairways throughout the course, so you have to hit all your shot dead on straight every time- no room for error. This will be a challenge for beginners and intermediate golfers. Grass not grown in yet, so balls were rolling. Greens in great condition. New sand in traps. Great clubhouse and restaurant.

Special note: bald eagles seen on tall pines off hole #12, not sure if they have a nest but cool to see them for sure as they are rarely seen on Long Island.

Course might be just fine

Wasn’t informed by app that the course was aerated. Narrow fairways but seems like it is a really good course when the fairways and greens are actually playable. Shouldn’t have sold at full price without warning. App not pro shop.

Great Round

Havent been here in a few years and played it last Saturday. Always had the idea in my head that its very tight and if you are not accurate off the tee it can be a tough time. Backed it up once when I wasnt at my best and remembered I had to punch out sideways back into the fairway like 8 times.

Had a last minute addition so this was one of the few tee times I could get day before. Everyone in the group thoroughly enjoyed the round. Still trees everywhere and we had our moments but it was a fun challenge and it makes you focus on the tee box more than any other course. Greens were punched which is my only complaint (whatre ya gonna do its fall golf in NY) but were green and still rolled great. Tee boxes and fairways were green and prob the best late season shape of the courses ive played recently.

Will definitely try to squeeze one more round out of The Woods before the season is out and maybe put it back in the rotation for next year.
