Can you hit? Pilgrim

Long but not too long.

Greens were in bad shape, but not real great weather to roll and cut.

I'll be back.

Beautiful scenery. Go check this course out.

great shape for this time of year

Pilgrims Oak was a joy to play on a 68 degree day in Mid November. They were doing some work to the regular white tee boxes so we did have the advantage of playing closer than normal. The tees, fairways and greens were in prime shape which you do not see from a public course at this time of year.

The greens are the prime defense of the course and they can be really tough if you are on the wrong level. Even when you have a wedge in your hands, it's hard to hit it close unless you have great course knowledge.

The par 4's are mostly short but have very narrow greens and you must be super accurate or miss in the right spot. Holes 2 ,3 and 7 are examples of this.

The par 5's are some of the best holes with 9 and 18 being the tops.

The tremendous par 3 12th hole remains one of the toughest par 3's around.

If you've not played here, its in a remote farmland area but well worth the drive as its a great value.

Stellar public course

Great layout with a variety of unique and challenging holes. Bring your putting A game because you're going to need to it to navigate these pristine greens with plenty of undulations. A must play golf course in PA.
