Putnam County Golf Course

Have played here A LOT! It’s a great course with challenges on virtually every hole. Risk-reward is a keynote of this place. Greens have subtle breaks that definitely can affect scoring. Fairways give good lies and rough penalizes by at least one club or more. All in all a really good place to play. A definite plus is the staff. You couldn’t find a more pleasant bunch of people on any other course. Definitely a great place for a very challenging but pleasant round.

Great course layout. The pace of play was surprisingly good on a day the busy due to the holiday.

This course was an amazing value. The course used to be a private club but was purchased by the county. According to gentlemen I played with said the county has done an amazing job in improvements. The layout was tough but also forgiving. Shot placement especially tee shots was critical. The greens were fast and true. I can't wait until I travel to New York again ...I will definitely play it again.

When you drive a ball down the middle and it ends up in the deep left rough because the fairways slopes severely to one side - it’s time to rethink the design. When you have a par3 that is so uphill you can’t see the flagstick from the tee - it’s more like playing a giant mini-golf course. And then there are the greens - with holes cut into the middle of steep slopes making impossible to stop a putt until it’s past the pin. The course conditions were excellent. The carts had GPS - but were constantly interrupted with advertisements. The staff were very friendly, especially the cart girl. Just too many better options elsewhere.

Very Nice place, Greens were slower than normal and pace was also slow. 5hr round.

My wife is just starting out - and we went here for the first time. Excellent staff and very welcoming to first timers. Most importantly, it was super crowded, but the starter did a perfect job of spacing out the groups so that we barely waited despite going on a saturday afternoon. Great job! will go again.

Very. Surprised to see the course in such great shape for this time of year

Decent break from the monotonous Westchester courses. Place is super wet though, otherwise decent condition. I played on a horribly windy day which was a drag. The greens are confusing and challenging, but can be frustrating. They seemed to roll true. It’s a tough walk through some parts but they do have a new cart fleet.

Most tee boxes face other wholes making it almost impossible to enjoy an entire round without worrying about a golf ball flying in your direction. My group alone was almost hit about 3 times. Not the courssy fault but, horrible golf edict by other golfers, huge turnoff. Definitely not the golfers you want to be paired with. The two gentlemen I was paired with have been playing there for years and decided that was their last round at Putnam. Starter guy in the morning had a bad attitude with most people checking in for the 30 minutes I was putting on the practice green. He was a very distasteful person.

Wet to be expected but Great condition for April 1st
