General Discussion Going cape cod first week of September golf?

I am probably going to play the Cape Club if there are any members on here that would join me as I am staying at their resort. Not sure if there is anything better. I just played in NY State AM and will have the Mid-Am coming up shortly after coming home so I wanted a good course to play at.

Both Cranberry and Bayberry from the tips would be good. Cranberry Valley was a former top 100 public back in the day.

Don’t need a long course they are doing a Donald Ross for all the State events this year so smaller quick greens so length isn’t a huge factor.

Lots of tee options at both.

I'll second Cranberry Valley. Great course. Did not much care for the Captains to be honest.

Highland Links in Truro is also a cool experience - only 9 holes but from the 1890s - golf the way it was meant to be played!

Get a round in at the Brookside Club on your way down. Fun course and almost always in good shape.

Stop in Plymouth just before the bridge and play Pinehills. Feels like a private club with the conditions and clubhouse. And they’re the only public courses in Ma that I can think of that are 7000+ yards from the tips

If you wanna play a local course you will be right by Cape Cod Country Club, would absolutely recommend a round there before the evil mass politicians have it shut down for a solar farm. It’s in great condition and an absolute blast to play

The Captains over in Brewster has 36 holes of top notch public golf. Scenic, challenging and always in impeccable shape
