Putnam County Golf Course

Tee boxes and fairways in good shape. Greens needed to be cut and rolled. Putting was near impossible. No rangers meant extraordinarily slow pace even though we had late afternoon start causing a 5 hour round. No towels at ball washers was annoying. But at the Golf Now price, I guess I shouldn't complain.

Pros
--Good value
--Very friendly staff
--Decently maintained

Cons
--Almost overly straightforward layout
--No holes that stand out

OK so many the bunkers are still pretty rough (some have been redone) but overall this place has come a long way from the past few years. Greens and fairways were consistently nice and lush (weather has helped I'm sure) but I saw guys hand watering some of them, rangers, etc things I've never seen there, good things. Few of my friends don't care for the course and I think course condition and pace of play has had a lot to do with that- I feel its a good layout with a nice mix of birdie and tough holes and our foursome hit the 4 hour mark thru 17 on Sunday morning play. I'm not sure I'm crazy about the recent reversal of nines, I really liked those 2 tough par 4s at the end of the round. Certainly not a deal breaker and with conditions as they are course is a legit bargain for the area.

Nice course and a good value for your buck. Only problem I have is that the holes are pretty much on top of each other. All too often I am hitting a fairway shot and a bunch of golfers are talking way too loudly on the green on the hole nearby. I, personally blame the golfers as I am always aware of people shooting around me and do my best to keep it down!!! Course is in good shape and again is the best value I have found in the area to date. Starter is a nice guy and pretty much everyone is pleasant from beverage cart girls to pro shop!!!

Putnam is not worth it anymore. Last season I would play Putnam every week because it was cheap, quick, and the course conditions didn't seem to bother me. I just went out there on a Friday morning and there were way too many people out on the course, it was WAY too expensive, and the conditions were very poor. After a lot of rain over a week ago, I would think the course would be fine and fresh. But there were many, many sloppy areas where you just wanted to pick your ball up and put it somewhere else. There are some of these holes that are disgustingly muddy and then there are some that are hard as a rock. Almost every tee box was a struggle just to stick the tee in the ground. There were no rangers on the course keeping the pace of play going.
There were landscapers on almost every hole, too. While it's good that they are trying to improve the course (always trying, never succeeding), this is a distraction and it slows down play on the busy Friday morning.
I'm really just sick of this course. After the price increases this year, do not even bother unless its a twilight time or a GolfNow Hot Deal. Go to centennial instead.

It's a Putnam county course and you can tell that they are trying. If you go after it rains be prepared to get muddy and the drainage on the course is not good. There are a couple of nice holes though.

COURSE WAS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION CONSIDERING THE AMOUNT OF RECENT RAIN

Jackie was very helpful, my buddy lost is iPhone and she help find it!

Super deal through golf now. Starter was super friendly and the pace was play met expectations

Even with high winds making it feel in the 40's, course play was great! Great friendly staff and fellow golfers. For what you pay to play, you get and more. Top notch course all the way. If you can make it out to Mahopac, NY to play some golf. That's where you need to be!

Overpriced for wha you get. Strange layout tha lacks creatvity but it is the poor condition of the fairways and rough tha leaves you wanting more. Take the extra 20 minte ride north to Beekman or The Links @ Unionvale. Everytme I have been hear, three or more fairways are awful. One of the worst ptting greens and warmup facilities for a daily fee course.

I would consider this my "home course" since I live 20 min away. They always have good hot deals on the weekends. Some fairways need attention but for the most part they are in decent shape. Greens are in good shape too. Some challenging holes for sure. I would def. recommend.

I've had a great experience at the golf course. I found golf course to be moderate in difficulty, but took a long time to finish all 18 holes due to having to find lost golf balls hidden under leaves.

Overall, great golf course at reasonable price.
