Anyone care to guess the architect?  This course should be open next summer.

Old Westbury? Seriously? Where? What? Private? Public?
I'm surprised I haven't heard anything about this.  I would have thought that the only new course that would open in our area would be someone buying and reopening the old Fox Hollow course across from Muttontown on 25A.

This is unmistakably a Rees Jones course.  And it will not be public, even by Jaka's definition.   ;)

Rees:

 Steve S's property. Will be nine holes with several sets of tees and angles. Border's the OWGC property. Bring your best Gin Rummy game.

No, but those berms/bumps will be used to get a lay on the land I suspect :o

Dan made a great guess.  Steve appears to know something about the property.  That is not a clubhouse, that is the new house/castle.  The assistant super from Glen Oaks got the super job.  Hopefully, in the spring I will have an opportunity to see the entire course.    This is a true private club--one member--the owner.
