great summer round

Perfect weather and course was in very good shape after a long Summer season. Nice to have good pace of play to not interrupt your rhythm but can't guarantee depending on your tee time. Personnel friendly and helpful. Hole #15 is fantastic every time!

A good course

Overall, course conditions were good. Nice fairways. Some holes were quite challenging but fair. Greens were a bit hairy and therefore slow. Some of the holes were not cut flat and putts rolled away from the hole. Pace of play was excellent the day I played. While not my favorite, it is a good track and I recommend it.

Cut the greens, please.

The practice putting green was a mess, looks like fungus got to it. Which is too bad because the entire course had very lush greens. So,lush, in fact, that the grass was too long and badly needed cutting (on a Sunday!). Everyone in the foursome was leaving putts three, four feet short all day. And the pin placements were always on the side of a hill, the guy who sets the pins must think he is working at Bethpage Black during the US Open. Anyone who plays Whitney knows that the greens are difficult to begin with as none of them were contoured properly when designed. The rule at Whitney Farms is "if you go long, you are doomed". The sand traps were the best I have seen at any course all year, new fine-granular sand, very nice.

Wonderful course

Putting was so true!! Most people can't have the following though. The absolute best foursome that I have ever played with. I hope everyone has the opportunity to say this someday.

Hot weather

The course was in pretty good condition. My only problem was that there was no water on the golf course, in this kind of heat, ridiculous. Had to finish the front nine then go to the grill to get water. Found only one water stop on the back, again, ridiculous for this kind of weather. The first ball washer I found, empty. I don't know who is managing this course but these issues should be addressed quickly.

Whitney Farms Golf Club

Just had a family golf outing at Whitney Farms and everyone had a great time. Pro shop personnel were friendly and courteous especially Ralph. Course was in immaculate

condition and restaurant staff was efficient and made us feel welcome. We would recommend this facility to anyone who enjoys golf and fine food. Thanks to the management for a memorable day
