Pine Ridge Golf Club occupies rolling terrain in Coram, a community in central Suffolk County on Long Island. Ron Forse, known for his restoration work on classic American courses and his understanding of Golden Age design principles, created the layout. The course reflects Forse's preference for strategic options and ground-game golf, with routing that works with the natural contours rather than imposing dramatic earthmoving on the site. The property features the wooded, gently rolling topography characteristic of this part of Long Island, with stands of pine and hardwood framing holes and defining corridors. Forse's design emphasizes width in the landing areas and presents golfers with choices off the tee, rewarding those who position drives to open up favorable angles into greens. The putting surfaces incorporate subtle interior contours that make approach placement and lag putting important elements of scoring. Pine Ridge serves a local membership and operates as a daily-fee facility, making Forse's design accessible to a range of golfers in the Long Island golf market. The course provides a contrast to some of the region's more heavily conditioned or target-oriented layouts, offering a playing experience that prioritizes strategy and course management over forced carries and penal hazards. The design suits players who appreciate thoughtful architecture and the opportunity to work the ball along the ground.
