A New York Cherry Blossom Golf Course

Vany is the oldest public golf course in the USA (as per my knowledge). It has historical significance in the realm of manny courses. Sadly it hasn’t made its presence known as other courses like bethpage, winter park golf course in Orlando which is now a historical heritage park. Vany also has the original lockers and the aura inside the club house is vintage. The front 9 misses frequency to rattle up the feeling, but the back starts hitting the soul with fantastic 14 - 18 finishing holes. Even from NY, I was surprise to see Lack of friendliness hovers around the club, it is however boogie Bronx. But was surprise to see Little Attitude enter Vany soul. Times are changing as the young blood enters the game of frustration and missed opportunity. In the end, I thoroughly enjoyed the course and city makes its presence known on certain holes, highway running next to fairways. green fairways within concrete jungle. A historic course that needs to be in heritage books since yesterday.

The course has a bit of a strange layout, which being in NYC I get, but due to the long distances from green to tee boxes, the guy in the club house should have at least suggested renting a cart. The greens were in good shape. Small, but enough undulations to still be a challenge. The course as a whole looks beautiful with a lot of trees lining each hole. The fairways and rough did not have enough grass which resulted in too many balls coming to rest on dirt. The sand traps were in good condition with plenty of sand in them. I'd like to give 3.5 stars but since that's not an option I gave them 4. I also find that the green fees are a bit steep for a public city course. I paid $40 to walk. I'll play here again because it's the closest course to my home in the Bronx, however there is plenty of room for improvement.

It's a love-hate thing with this course. It's close to Manhattan, I know every nook and cranny of this place, on a weekday it moves, given how many rounds are played here... those are all positives. When it's backed up, it's slow going; when the grass refuses to grow in certain spaces, have fun hitting off hard packed bronx dirt; when the wasps and hornets are buzzing around the 4th and 5th holes... run for cover. And the hamburger at the halfway house... avoid ...at all costs and opt for a dog instead. But it's home. And not savagely expensive. And a decent on course beer selection. And it was Babe Ruth's home course too.
