Recs for private golf clubs around the south shore?

[Freddog97]

Hi guy and gals

 

Could anyone recommend any private clubs in south shore. Im around the Foxborough area. Im willing to travel down to plymouth. I was looking at Plymouth Country Club. Im in my mid 20s young professional. Im game for $3,000 yearly and small initiation. Any clubs I should check out?

I don't know much about it because I live out of state, but my friend has been a member of Walpole Country Club off RT 1 since his mid 20's and he loves it.

If you are in Foxboro the obvious club to look into is Foxboro CC. I was a member for years. Nice course, great members and reasonable price.

 

Walpole is nice but more expensive.

Not private but Pinehills could be the best bang for your buck going if you are under 30.  $2700 for two great courses and cart

+1 on Foxboro CC.  If I lived closer, I would apply to join in a heartbeat.  Great course, atmosphere is laid back and not snooty, and my friend who has been a member there for years is always raving about the place.

Going to be tough to find a club that's not on a waitlist, especially for young members, so I recommend reaching out asap to a bunch of different clubs. I know Thorny Lea in Brockton is about in your price range. Also Ledgemont in Seekonk is a decent course and affordable I believe. Both probably within a 30min radius of you.

Halifax country club Is a nice track

Thorny Lea is definitely worth looking into if you're a serious golfer as they have as solid of a playing membership around. Multiple Mass Am champs and a ton of members who are less than a 5 hdcp. I was an intermediate member there in my mid 20's, only restriction back then was that you couldn't tee off until 11:30am on the weekends - although they now have a young exec membership where you pay less than a full membership and can play at anytime on the weekends/holidays.

Reviving this thread. I'm moving back to Mass next year, and my home purchase decision is location based around an affordable CC or semi-private track with a good membership. 

 

+1 for Thorny Lea.
