Pinch Brook Golf Course
Rating Snapshot
About
Pinch Brook Golf Course in Florham Park may be a short course, but it should not be underestimated. The layout offers all the challenges of a championship course conveniently wrapped in an executive-length course. Water hazards come into play on nearly every hole, including a pond on the seventh that is shaped like the state of New Jersey. The elevated and undulating greens putt fast and true. They present a test for even the most seasoned golfers. The par-3 holes are particularly tough. Most of them feature strategically placed bunkers fiercely guarding the double-tiered greens, that or a forced carry. The golf course is great for honing your short game skills or for squeezing in a quick but challenging round. Pinch Brook G.C. is hailed by locals as the best short course in northern New Jersey.

Sand please - Evan a few grains
Sometimes you hit bunkers - went for both par 5s and came up short in bunkers. What should have been easy outs were shots out of cement - 2 pars should have been 2 birdies. - please make this course playable with even SOME sand
Worst county course
If it’s wasn’t $70 a round I would give it a slightly better review. But the greens are in bad shape and the tee boxes looks like a battlefield in Ukraine. Save your money and go literally anywhere else.
Pinch Brook GC
Short course, pricey if out of county, slow pace of play. Decent condition except for sand traps which need work.
Slight frost delay, still fast round
30 degree Temps in the morning caused a slight frost delay. Course dried up nicely by hole 5. Fairways and greens were in great shape. Tee boxes are in need of some care on the Par 3s. Alot of broken tees left on the tee box.
Overall, very happy with the round.
Big greens
Soggy due recent rains ,no roll off tee. Interesting layout. Big greens for a short course. Playable will have to try out in the spring.
Too inconvenient because there is no portable toilet.
Great Course to Practice your short game on.
You'll have fun on this course.
The par 4s are of good length.
Par 3s are fun and somewhat challenging.
Great Course for your short game
Pinchbrook is always fun and enjoyable to play.
It might be short in yardage but it’s long on challenging greens.
Bring your waterproof shoes Pinchbrook often is very damp under foot.
Exceed expectations
1st time on course. Conditions were excellent for the time of year. Looking forward to playing during the summer.
