Rutgers Golf Course

About Rutgers Golf Course

You'd be surprised how good this university course is for a public track. Built on rolling terrain in central New Jersey, the layout takes advantage of natural elevation changes that give you some genuine strategic decisions off the tee. The conditioning punches well above its weight class - the greens roll true and the fairways are typically in solid shape, especially considering the heavy play it gets from both students and locals. What really sells me on this place is the value proposition. At these green fees, you're getting a legitimate test of golf without the pretense or inflated pricing of the private clubs nearby. The 4.4 Google rating from nearly 250 reviews tells you everything - this isn't a hidden gem that five people know about, it's a consistently solid experience that keeps regulars coming back. Walking is encouraged here, which adds to the old-school appeal and keeps your round moving at a reasonable pace.
