WIDOWS WALK GOLF COURSE

The windswept fairways carved from former farmland along Massachusetts' South Shore demand precision as much as they reward it, with elevation changes that reveal glimpses of the Atlantic beyond the closing holes. Michael Hurdzan's routing maximizes the rolling terrain through strategic bunkering and greens that tilt toward the prevailing ocean breeze, creating approach shots that require local knowledge to master. This is New England links-style golf at its most authentic—where the fescue rough grows thick, the putting surfaces run true, and October rounds feel like Scotland without the passport.
