1325.0. "Courses for Net U." by DPDMAI::VENEZIO (never drink SLICE while golfing) Tue Jul 23 1991 14:05

    Can a few of the Boston noters give me some help on the best places to
    play near the City?
    
    I'll be coming to town for Net U. and would like to play Sunday
    afternoon. We'll be staying at the Westin in town and will have wheels. 
    
    How far's Crumpin Fox. I'd love to play it once. I've played a few of
    the courses in the burbs, but only one of the City courses. Can't
    remember the name, but I do remember a majestic clubhouse overlooking
    the 18th. The 18th was uphill and the clubhouse had a big porch
    overlooking the green.
    
    Your help is appreciated.

    Can pitch tommorrow.

Might you be refering to the George Wright Golf course tel 617-361-8313. They
do take tee times. Also I understand Franklin Park has opened up nine holes
and it is appreciated by the locals. George Wright is a well designed course.

    You should try Shaker Hills in Harvard(call before you leave for tee
    times).
    Also, you should enjoy Stowe North or Stowe South courses.
    Crumpim Fox is quite a drive from Boston!
    Wauchusettes is a Donald Ross that is open to tee times.
    Enjoy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Thanks for the reply, I'm very fond of Donald Ross designs and will
    make a point of trying Wauchsettes. I have played both the Stow courses
    and enjoyed them.
    
    Thanks

    Ken,
    
    George Wright in Hyde Park is a Donald Ross course (Don't miss it)along with
    Wachusett(West Boylston) and Sandy Burr in Wayland. I would rate them (IMHO)
    GW(1), Wachusett(2), and Sandy Burr a distant (3). These are all public
    courses.

1325.5No Burr SONATA::FEENEYnon golfers live half a lifeThu Jul 25 1991 13:292
I don't recommend Sandy Burr as it is dangerous due to the course management,
although, the initial Ross layout was OK given the lack of space.
