Great course if you live in NYC

Pelham Bay/Split Rock is a great course - especially if you live in NYC. You would never know you were in the Bronx once you are out on the course ... just feels like another round of golf in the country.

I was amazed at how well the course played seeing how it was mid October. Bravo to the crew over there.

I'll try and get in another round or two this fall.

Absolute Rollercoaster

65 degrees in March at a NYC course.. I guess you can’t expect much more than “at least we’re playing” type of round. 50 min delay off the first tee. Construction everywhere. Swamped conditions. Feel like “just happy to be playing” is the standard for NYC tracks so maybe in a vacuum Pelham is a decent option? Had some length and trees so that’s nice. I’ll give it another shot in prime season but likely will continue to do whatever I can to avoid playing city courses. Having 36 is cool though

It’s a great course for being in the NYC area

Most courses near or in NYC are not good but Pelham was pretty solid. For February, it was in really good condition.

First time playing, need to go back

Booked a round but had a front delay which lead to a super slow Friday round which was unfortunate. Pehlam Bay course was very nicely kept and the greens were rolling fast and true. Just kept waiting and couldn't get into a nice flow. Will be going back earlier in the week to replay and try split rock.
