Chris Bargas Golf Club at Whitney Farms

Course was in good condition. Greens have killed nicely from aeration. Slow pace of play for Friday afternoon. No Ranger on the course. No communication between Pro Shop check in and starter. Confusion at First Tee with multiple groups.

Again course was in great shape, compliments to ground crew. Finished round in a little over 3hr., pace of play was great. Par 5s are long but do able if you hit long tee shots. Location of holes & weather combine to make each hole & shot interesting!

Course fairways were a bit hard ground and balls tended to bounce erratically. Greens were also very undulating and a bit inconsistent in speed. Otherwise course was enjoyable but a ranger to ride the course and needs to speed up play with many beginners taking several extra shots each hole.

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!

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.

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.

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.

Challenging course of which i have played many times. Well maintained, great greens.
