Friday at Flanders.

Great day on Blue White today. Though I did t play well, love this track. Keep it in the short grass here- rough is a penalty -definitely an extra stroke to get on the massive greens. Looking forward to the next round.

Good round in frigid temps.

Sunday was 40 with 18 mph wind -but layered up the golf was still great. Of course very few of us out there. Course is a really good option even with a 1 hour drive from Verona,NJ.

Will play through March until my county courses open.

Thanks for joining us for some COLD golf. Glad to see you enjoyed the course.

Hopefully, you will join us again when we can do more work on the course when the weather allows.

Have a great season!

Nice opening round- 2022

Beautiful weather for late February. Stuck behind a very slow 4-some for much of the round- that's always frustrating. Some interesting holes and greens in good shape given the time of year. Would go again during the early season.

Thanks for joining us for some late winter golf. It was great to see so many people out after the tough winter.

Enjoy the coming season.

Great greens- some rough patches

I've been playing Sunset for years and always enjoyed the track. It is tough walking course for me so parring 16-18 was especially rewarding. The greens in typical form were almost unfair on #1, #4, and #6 on the front, especially with the pin placement on 4 which was insane.
I'm still disappointed they can't get grass to grow evenly throughout the course. The first par 3 down hill had some very rough areas with hardpan and uneven growth. I'm always surprised the yardage from the White tees is less than 6,000 yards- the course plays tough and is always a challenge (84 today).

Early spring - warmest day of the season

Sunset in Morris County is a good test for golfers of all levels. Great walking course with challenging elevation changes. Today the normally fast greens were simply unfair! I chalk that up to early aeration and greens which are still hardened from cold temperatures. A lot of debris around the course from the harsh late season wet snowfalls. For a good non county rate of $35 I’ll walk this course anytime.

Good conditions

First time traveling to OceanCty from north Jersey to this 27 hole layout. Great conditions for late march. Plenty of soft sand in the traps as. welcomed. Staff could not be nicer. I asked starter to get me out earlier and he happily made it happen.

Not going to be a destination point though if the rates go up over $75 in season

Middle or back tees?

I was so happy that I played this course twice on consecutive days. Both tee off times around 9:40 am on Saturday and Sunday.
First day - played from the middle tees and found my target golf skills need work. Firm fairways and many narrow with small landing areas. Wide and well placed bunkers. Still too many hackers not racking or fixing ball marks. Courses which get a lot of play must have players that take care of their track.
Greens were hard to read and lightening fast. Some pin placements are down right illegal. The toughness of greens slows down the play considerably.

Second day. Played from the back tees. World of difference for me- much more fun and scored significantly better. If you like to walk which I do, a strenuous but enjoy hike. Last three holes are the best in NJ public courses.
