It has to be Augusta since that is the one most want to play over all other and they are closed for 1/2 year.

Any other course that requires you to play with a member and have very few members: Seminole, Chicago, etc...

The Old Course 5 months a year (my contention being that you can't really say you've played a course through a 1/2" of Astroturf)  :'(

Wisley - which I've played several times
Queenwood - I know a couple of members but never played it
Loch Lomond - although that may just about to be getting a damn sight easier

ANGC - interestingly I know at least six people at my club that have played there, all through different ANGC members.

Chicago - I've been lucky enough to play.

I guess every private club is difficult to play if you do not know anyone and relatively easy if you do.

Privately owned courses are different and don't really count in my opinion.

I would suggested that you try to sweep the ball off the astroturf rather than hit down and through it.  The latter can be painful as well as ineffective.

Audible Huckabian Yucks, Rich!
Have you ever done that?
Bejabbers, but it hurts! (Both the cold hands and the heated pride as the little astroturf square flies perfectly straight down the fairway for twenty or thirty yards and the ball merely pops straight up in the air and falls on exactly the spot it left.) OUCH!

I'm I to gather from the non-listing of Pine Valley and SFGC that ... they're walk ons???  :o

Not exactly :)

Pine Valley even has its own police department to keep the rif-raff out!

It amazes me that after 2 pages no one said PV.  I've lived in NJ for 23 years and have never even had a slight hope of getting on.  I must be doing something wrong.
