Somers National Golf Club

Narrow fairways, with no room for error. All the holes fairways and green have steep slopes. Not a good place for below average players. Ball is hard to track due to course layout and well you get the idea…

This course need a lot of management, otherwise we lose a lot of balls.

Practice facilities are inadequate. Not allowed to hit Driver on the range

First time playing course, very narrow which makes it challenging and you have to use every club in bag. The greens were in poor condition and the pin location and slopes made it very difficult to score.

I go to Somers national a lot. Some of the tee boxes could use work. They have worked to fix the greens. The pace of play is awful though. You can easily wait 10-15 minutes to tee of on your next hole if you’re an above average golfer. I understand not everyone can drive the ball 300+ but neither do the people I play with and we’ve had to wait for almost every shot we took. We left after 5 hours only playing 13 holes.

Decent course- lots of tree-lined fairways and decent elevation changes. GPS was necessary and a nice part of playing. Nice course to take a hike… but tough to play.

Starter told us lots of people don’t hit driver… so then, what’s the point? Would play better with better tree maintenance (cut low/overhanging limbs), better irrigation (greens were super wet and some muddy/lumpy fairways) and longer rough (for when the ball rolls from the fairway into the woods).

I am all about a challenging course, but this course is narrow for the sake of being narrow. There is almost no rough, just a narrow fairway followed by trees that are thick with brush. But the worst part is the greens. Poorly maintained with stupid pin positions that slope straight down.

Wouldn't be a bad course for $40. But for $75 there are much better options. Only saving grace is that the pace of play is good because no one wants to play here.

Very challenging course, it’s tight and a lot of hills so a lot of blind shots. The tee box’s were in rough shape but the rest of the course was in good condition. The greens were extremely hard to read. Kudos to the grounds crew because those greens messed me up on all 18 holes!

I played this course probably 20 times, but the last time was 17 years ago. It’s in better shape, has better staff, and was just all around improved since then. We will be back, and may become our new “home course”.
