Hey Mark,
It is true that I'm a granite stater. I live in the central part of the state. When you resettle we should arrange a rendezvous. You can always send me a message via this site.
I don't know how much you know about NH and golf. We have a few solid designs sprinkled throughout the state. I would include among them: Bretton Woods, Portsmouth CC, Bald Peak Colony Club, Baker Hill, and there are others. There are a lot of good designs over the border in MA, and some interesting architecture in both Maine and Vermont. It sure isn't Philadelphia or Long Island, but there is merit, here and there.
I note that someone said to go and try Shattuck in Jaffrey. It is a Geoff Silva design and Geoff is capable of first class restoration work (Mountain Lake, CC of Charleston, Vesper, all fantastic) as well as very good original design, (Black Rock and Renaissance come immediately to mind) but Shattuck is in a class by its self in terms of its difficulty and unforgiving character. I have a good friend, a three handicap who lost 19 balls there in 18 holes two years ago. If you want to go torture yourself, be my guest, but there are lots of more interesting venues. I will admit Shattuck presents superb views of Mount Monadnock, especially in the fall, but it's a real shame that the course is not more playable. If you think Florida presents forced carries, just go check out Shattuck. Too bad, it's a pretty place.
Message me when you arrive, maybe winter will be over by then.
