    The Tillinghast design is home to some of the tightest fairways and thickest rough a golfer will find. You don't play Bethpage for the greens, you play for the journey to them. They're considerably flat and slow, which people dislike, but I think it adds a sense of fairness back to the golf course.

    An amazing championship layout that really goes under the radar in golf rich LI. A real test no matter what tee you play. A cool drivable par 4 (5) and cool short Par 5 finishing hole.

    Course itself was fine. Pretty long and some challenging holes. Randomly 18th is a par 6. Grass driving range which is a plus. Not crowded at all on Saturday morning in June. Cart paths were a disaster.

How we rank

This ranking uses published scorecard data from each course’s longest men’s tees, the same tee set for every course. Only 18-hole courses with a yardage for every hole, a total that matches the hole-by-hole sum, and a par between 54 and 80 are included. Courses whose scorecard duplicates another course’s are left out until the data is fixed. Courses are ordered by total yardage, then slope rating, then Course Vaults score. Only open courses with a published Course Vaults score (at least 5 explicit ratings) are eligible, and a page is published only when at least 5 courses qualify. City pages include courses within about 25 miles of East Setauket, so nearby suburbs can appear. Rankings refresh about hourly.
