When is the best time to play the Black course without having to camp out in the car?
That place is awesome. 15 was a beast and ate me up. People underestimate the physical and mental strain this course puts on you. From personal experience I would not recommend playing the Black after you already played 18 earlier in the day(I would do it again however in a heartbeat). Awesome experience!

76 is my low which i'm not sure if that's good or bad considering how many times I've played it.
$3.50 - 4 for a good one. If you get charged more you know it's sh!t.

The real question is, "Did you make club changes DURING the round?" (I actually didn't this time but I have been known to do that in the past).
I actually ditched the Marxman and went with the Stroke Lab R-Ball which I freakin' love! So easy to align and gives me so much confidence over the ball.
Ghee added a degree of loft (9° to 10°) and was literally carrying it 330 with standard Flash. Kid just CRUSHES!
THanks so much for sharing JB!
Would love to answer any questions anyone has about the course/process/best reguluh pizza in the area
Is it worth going to Jersey to play?
How bad are out of town rates?
Who do I have to beat up to get that hat?
Don’t go within the next month or so - excitement over the PGA will bring out a lot of folks. Forget weekends - focus on a weekday. Best bet is hook up with a NY resident that you can play with and book 7 days in advance. Otherwise, go as a single or 2some most weekdays and you can get a time - go in the morning and expect an afternoon time, and often you can get lucky with a early time. If thinking about a 4some, that’s a tougher ask...
It can’t be any worse than last time—walking a five hour round in 115° heat index—stink, stank, stunk.
@ddec Looks like we need to play the green and the red

True. I had to leave the windows down for 3 days for that car to air out. Even Lexie was avoiding my car the next day.
Yes yes we do.

F-ck Yeah Baby!
Awesome video.
Hour of sleep. Needing an early tee time. 10:20ish coming thru nicely. Hit some bomb drives with your friends.
Great stuff man.

That's awesome your buddy got in Nassau Players Club Bri. I think the stat is that like a quarter of the 100 or so members have a 3.0 index or lower ��.
And the rough was definitely up. I was impressed how thick they were able to get it so early in the season. Cuz when August comes around, fuggeduhboudit!

Sometime in the fall (late september/october). Also my personal favorite time to lay
But if you go during the summer and don't mind teeing off in the afternoon, you can go over there at like 8-9 a.m. and should be able to get out.

Haha this is the last black Customs hat known to man!
Non-resident is $150, which compared to other major courses, is a damn steal.
That’s a pretty good price really.
I’d be be all over the hat, but you’re a cool dude, so I’ll just settle for mild jealousy.
Great video, thanks for sharing your experience! I’m with you, the course and the score are a sideshow to the real important stuff, hanging out with friends and having fun.
Why ruin a perfectly good bacon sandwich with a runny egg?

@AJVCG Better breakfast sandwich, Gourmet Deli near Bethpage or Hideaway Slider?
Homecoming: Back To Bethpage Black
Loved the video, captured all the perfect moments of experiencing bethpage. Course opens back up after the PGA on 5/25, gonna try to make it out there the following Wednesday/Thursday with some NYers I know.

AJ, loved the mini doc! What an awesome look at an iconic course! Thanks for taking us along! This is a bucket list course for me so just wondering the best time of the year to play it, weather and course conditions? Seeing some of the putts rolled the greens looked pretty fast, is that typical throughout the year or just pre-tourney?
Great video. Would be a blast for anyone to have that experience with a group of friends, especially just before a major.
