Loved it!
This is a very nice track with a unique layout. It offers a good mix of hazards with moderate greens. The layout forces you to pre-plan your shot selection and focus on course management. Big hitters can’t score just by knocking the cover off the ball. Some of the fairways are fairly tight and give you looks through doglegs and tree cover providing a moderate challenge.
The greens had been spiked at some point in the week leading up to my round. Regardless of the dimples, the greens played true to pace and I’m looking forward to putting them in their pure form. Fairways and tee boxes are well groomed and presented as one would expect. Bunkers were raked and fluffed adequately. Electric carts in very nice condition, fairly new, clean with turf repair bottles.
I thoroughly enjoyed my round at this club. It was my first play here and I will certainly be looking to schedule here several times a season. I would recommend this course to any golfer but particularly those who take the game seriously with average skill or better.
Next year
Layout was good, but the greens were not in very good shape especially on the front. They said it was a chemical mix up that should be recovered next year. Staff was luke warm at best. You could tell some of the members don't like outsiders coming in. Plenty of room for improvement "course & staff", but I would go back, just not this year.
good classic layout
Golf Advisor never set my information to Somerset CC no tee time was registered for my party. They claim this happens with you all the time.
1921 Design
This is a Very Nice Course!! Fast and Firm Greens, lots of character from tee to Green with Doglegs left and Right. Old School characteristics like bouncing balls into Greens, like British Open Courses! Different and A Test!!
Good course if conditions are right
Somerset CC is a place I play often- the layout is on the shorter side but is still a very difficult test of your game. The main defense is the courses greens and when they are on the firmer and faster side it gets extremely difficult. the only problem with the course is the conditions are always great. I would say about 25% of the season the course is in solid shape while the other 75% the greens are slow and bumpy and the rest of the course is never great. I would not go out of your way to play here but if you are local it is worth playing.
Excellent Value
Our group played the course two days in a row and we were very impressed with the conditions, especial the greens. There are not many straight putts on these greens, so you have to take an extra moment to look from both sides. Best value in the area!
Great Course
I have played this course several times over the years. The course is well maintained with excellent drainage. Lots of tree lined fairways and sand.
