BLIND BROOK CLUB

A.W. Tillinghast's 1916 masterpiece in Westchester County demands precision over power, with cleverly angled greens that punish wayward approaches and reward those who study the subtleties of each pin position. The rolling terrain creates natural amphitheaters around several greens, particularly the dramatic downhill par-3 16th that plays longer than its yardage suggests when the wind swirls off Long Island Sound. This is strategic golf at its finest—every shot matters, and members who've walked these fairways for decades still discover new wrinkles in Tillie's routing.
