Built: 1935 Architect: A.W. Tillinghast Description: The Red has hosted many prestigeous tournaments and hardly a bad word has been said about it. Although easier than the Black -- which curries favor from high- and mid-handicapers -- the Red is far from a pushover. It starts off in impressive fashion with an imposing, uphill 474-yard par-4 that has no bunkers -- and it doesn't need them.
Reader Comments: As a 15-20 handicap, I’d rather play here than the Black ... Never boring ... Always beautifully maintained ... Some of the toughest par-4s anywhere on Long Island ... The greens are flat, but are still interesting.
