Well, it’s tough to disagree with the locations on the list above. Still, for the commoners like us, we suggest giving Weequahic Golf Course in Newark, NJ, or Skyway Golf Course in Jersey City, NJ, a try, and if you’re feeling really fancy, jog over to Trump Ferry Point, in The Bronx, NY where you can pay absurd green fees, shoot a 120, and question why you ever started playing golf.
