The best day to play Bethpage Black
« on: June 21, 2006, 10:40:19 PM »
The best day to play the Black is on July 21st.  This will be the day following the NY State Open.  The course is always brought up to better than its normal great conditions.  In addition, you will be able to experience US Open final round pins--they always leave the same pins the following day.  Greens should have some serious stimp speed.  Make your plans now!

My guess (never having played there) is any day that you are lucky enough to awake with your A game in your bag and forbearance in your head.

I was at a wedding recently and talked to a Parks official who said the Black has never been easier to get on. He chalks it up to a 'been there, done that, don't want to do it again, too hard' attitude amongst the 100s of 1000s of people who have played it since the Open.
