Golf in March

Overall the course is coming along, grass starting to grow and greens filling in. Compared to LaTourett it’s ahead of schedule with maintenance and upkeep. They actually have a starter(Bruno) who was especially nice and accommodating on busy Sunday after washout Saturday. Windy conditions dried out most wet areas and pace of play was better than expected.

Better than LaTourette’s horse track!

Cart path only so slowed it down a bit, course is starting to grow inn. Greens spotty with crab grass patches but it’s still only March! Bruno the starter, super nice! Over all much better than players club at LaTourett which is currently in sad shape. Bunkers have actual sand in it and fairways coming along. Even after rain on Saturday it wasn’t too wet thanks to 20 mph winds!

Wait for better conditions

This is my 4th time playing South Shore. Any one of us are lucky to be golfing this early in the season. I love this course but the tee boxes and fairways are struggling right now. Hopefully the warmer weather and some rain helps them bounce back. Just played winter rules. If u had a bad lie; bring your ball to some grass. Most fairways it was difficult to find any but we made due.

Not bad, not great

Tee boxes under repair, course could be better if they invested more into upkeep. Fairways were good. Greens decent shape, needed some rolling and acorns blown off a few

American golf should be ashamed

Terrible tee boxes and sand traps. Tee’d off 35 minutes after my tee time. Course overcrowded, golf carts falling apart(had to switch carts 3 times). No rangers moving groups. Large gaps between groups. No body working on the course.

Save your $

Think everyone knows SS is garbage but just a reminder it still is. I play there in the beginning of the year and it was in terrible shape and is still is.i just don't see them doing anything to improve. You talk to the staff and they tell you course get a lot of play but so do all the other courses in NJ and there a 100x better. The in the end just want you $$$. So don't give it to them
