Somerset Hills Country Club - TheBossGolfs
Somerset Hills Country Club in Bernardsville, NJ, is a stunning example of A.W. Tillinghast's legendary golf course design. It is my favorite American golf course, I have played. Since its opening in 1918, this Tillinghast masterpiece has retained its classic charm with almost no significant alterations.
One of the unique aspects of Somerset Hills is its dual personality. The front nine is reminiscent of links-style courses, offering expansive views and undulating fairways. As you navigate this part of the course, you'll encounter challenging greens guarded by strategically placed bunkers. The back nine, in contrast, takes you through dense woodlands with more dramatic elevations. It's a different challenge altogether, requiring precision and strategy to avoid the trees and slopes.
What makes Somerset Hills truly special is its balance between difficulty and playability. It isn't designed to trick players or overwhelm them with extreme length. Instead, it rewards skillful shots and punishes errant ones, making it both challenging and enjoyable. The staff and caddies contribute to the welcoming atmosphere, providing excellent service and making you feel at home.
Somerset Hills is a course I always look forward to playing when I get the chance, and I highly recommend it to anyone seeking a classic yet rewarding golfing experience.

    I love this place and the Ruddy family is so welcoming, its a unique place where the designer is the owner and operator. A real treasure. One thing about the EC... they space the tee times out so you feel like you're the only person on the course. Spoils you, especially when on a weekend you're backed up on the tee for an entire round

  • @B0bbySneeze
    @B0bbySneeze Před měsícem

    Thank you! Exactly what I was looking for - I am playing there for the first time this weekend. Also, it would be helpful if you could add estimated yardage to the hole for a set of tees and keep the hole info text up during the entire flyover (it disappears once the tee box is out of sight). Also, commentary on what the hole entails type stuff would be a plus (e.g. dog-left, creek 250 yards out that goes across the fareway, leaves 100 yards to the hole with water on right-hand side of green)! Just found myself rewinding the flyovers trying to figure out the hole and how to play it. But perfect, simple video otherwise!
