Middle Island Country Club

The rolling terrain of Long Island's pine barrens creates natural elevation changes that most municipal tracks can only dream of, with several holes threading through mature oak and pine corridors that demand precision over power. The par-4 14th epitomizes this design philosophy, where a blind tee shot over a ridge leads to a downhill approach that penalizes the overly aggressive with deep greenside bunkers. This layout rewards course management and local knowledge, making it a genuine test that improves with each playing.
