Meh

If you love hilly courses, have at it. Pace of play was was atrocious. Ruined the experience. Greens rolled nice, fairways were good. Tee boxes needed a trim.

Loved it!

We always wanted to head up to Endicott to check out where the seniors played the Dick Spoorting Good’s Open, and we we’re glad we did. Don’t be fooled by the Go-Kart looking facility on the outside with the green dinosaur logo, this place is legit. Course was in such great shape. I loved the layout. The rough was just that, rough. Gotta keep it in play. It’s a challenging course from the tips, pro tees weren’t available to play. $60 on a Saturday, well worth it. We will definitely be back! Do yourself a favor, go check this track out.

Don’t waste your money!

Got this as a hotdeal for $55($70 regular rate, RIDICULOUS for this place) decided to check it out. I am a very harsh critic when it comes to golf courses, but this place made it easy.

I’ll start with the good, the greens. In good shape, but terribly slow and tiny. If you are not a fan of small greens, DO NOT PLAY HERE.

The tee boxes were in rough shape, mostly on the back, some on front. The rough is full of clover, and the fairways were shaggy. Traps had coarser sand in it and very little of it, felt like concrete.

Pace of play was brutal. We were waiting 10-15 mins to hit our tee shots.

Course layout was, minus a few holes, terrible.

I can say more, but why waste review space. Do yourself a favor, go play somewhere else, unless you have a comp round. Even then, I still would not recommend going to Skydump. Gift the round to someone you don’t like.

A Tricky Course That Makes You Think

I had the opportunity to play Pine Meadows yesterday with a few friends and had a good first experience. I liked the layout of the course and thought it was in great shape. Played in the morning and felt the greens ran true. Fairways and tees were well kept. The course itself was a bit tricky, but not overly long even when playing from the black tees and on certain holes, it really made you think what club you needed to hit. Staff made us tee off on the back and once we hit the turn, pace of play dramatically decreased. We were on pace for about 3.5 hour round, which turned into a 5+ hour round. Price was good as we got a tee time special for $26.00 ($47.00 reg.). I don't feel it's worthy of the $47.00 price, so seek a special if you can. For the beginner player, it's a good idea to bring some extra balls as some narrow holes and wetlands could cause errant tee shots to be lost.

In conclusion, I enjoyed my overall experience at Pine Meadows and would recommend it to anyone looking for a golf course that will challenge you and make you think. Grab a tee time special and give it a try.
