My day at plantation

My day began with a par and a 43 on the front nine and finish with a 47 five hour round very slow big outing there on the course doesn’t attract good golfers so lotta duffers I’m a patient guy and I will experience this type of play at Bethpage State Park home of the Black course but I had nowhere to go no one To see and I had a good day course is flat as a pancake an old course original to the area God bless all golfers

The course

Called what is now "the pro shop" & finally got someone to pick up the phone, been trying occasionally for a month now, anyway, it's 3/3/24 & I ask the gentleman if the range was open yet, he said only if ur playing golf, I said ok, how much is it at noon, he said $70, I honestly laughed at him, so we can't use the range unless we intend to play, now they're charging $70 for a track that's worth $30 on its finest day, they have 2 postage stamp practice greens, 1 for Chipping, 1 for putting & no range use unless ur playing. TOURISTS, put ur money to better use, go somewhere else...I certainly won't play here again

Wow!!

What a gem! This course was on my must play list. I was reluctant to book because of the price. Finally popped on on GolfNow. Got a great round at a great price. Staff was amazing and the 19th hole was top shelf all the way! I will be goi g back even at full price.

Getting greener

Fairways and tees are filling in and getting greener. Greens are a mixed bag, some in good shape, others struggling. More rain will help. Pace of play was very good, 3.25 hrs. Ponds are full, so watch the water!

Needs a greens thumb

Greens are in bad shape. Foursome ahead not playing ready golf. Very slow play.

Coming along

Grass coming back into the fairways, but greens are still extremely slow. A twosome held up by a fivesome of women who refused to let us play through.

Mentioned it to the cart attendant, and comment was “that happens sometimes”.

Should never happen.

Love playing new courses.

While not that technically challenging,, I’m not that good of a golfer, so it was a blast to at every tee box to see what up ahead.
Course was a little rough in places, but overall great place!

Greens in great shape

The course was about 50 minutes from where I live and the value was worth the dive , until we walked in the clubhouse. In the pro shop the jerk behind the desk had an attitude and said what was my tee time , I told him the time and that I booked it and paid for it . He went off on how they don’t do that and I needed proof and no way was I getting a cart without proof. So I showed him my phone to prove it and said just sign for the cart in case I damage it . I was with my son and buddy who just looked like what is his problem. At the turn we 3 hots and coke’s and the lady at the bar was just as rude and piled all 3 dogs in one container that wouldn’t even close and could not even put condiments on them without having to carry each one . It was very clear that they do not want anyone but the regulars to play there . We where on the last hole when a guy in the cart asked if we could hurry in he wanted to leave. I guess they accomplished what they set out to do . Because they sure did make sure that if your not a local you will not enjoy your round. Complete a-holes , don’t waste your time and money.
