Golf at Bethpage State Park

It’s not often you can play golf on a top 30 US course that’s held two recent U.S. Open Championships for under $100 but that’s what you get at Bethpage. There are five courses in Bethpage National Park (from easiest to most challenging): yellow, green, blue, red and black, with the last one obviously being the crown jewel. Being able to say you played at Bethpage Black is kind of like a badge of honor, mainly because it’s a ridiculously tough course, so you better each have practiced and be darn good players or it’ll take a while and destroy your lofty ego. The other courses are nearly as nice and you can still say you played at Bethpage, just leave out the color.
Go on Friday if possible as weekend rounds take a long time, plus it’s an hour outside the city and you have to get there well in advance. Basically, you have to be fully committed to a day of golf.
