Real Estate Blog - New Jersey Golfing

Golf has always been the perfect blend of so many qualities: relaxation, exercise, skill, fun, competition (and even great food). It all takes place outdoors in stunning natural surroundings. New Jersey offers more than 200 public and private courses for every level of golfer. For a comprehensive rundown, including specs, photos and directions, go to www.njsga.org.

The Atlantic City region is home to the highest rated courses in New Jersey according to Golf Digest's Places to Play 2002-2003. Golf Magazine says, "In South Jersey the diamond tiara belongs to Harbor Pines." Golf for Women magazine rates it one of the "Top 100 women-friendly courses in the U.S. (Top 3 in NJ)." Book a complete all-inclusive golf vacation or tee time in advance of arrival by calling 1-800-GOLF-222 or going online to www.gacga.com.

If golf is truly in your blood, you will get the transfusion of a lifetime when you visit the USGA Golf House and Museum. The Golf House is the Headquarters for the USGA. The Golf Museum, with its one-of-a-kind exhibits, makes for great family fun! It is the only place in the world where you can see the 1-iron Ben Hogan used in the 1950 U.S. Open and the "out-of-this-world" club used by Apollo 14 astronaut Alan Shepard to hit one giant putt for mankind. The museum exhibits are one thing, but USGA's Testing Facility is another ball altogether. People talk about the "science of the game;" it is here-from the 14,000 square foot lab to the 325-yard outdoor testing range. Get an eyeful of Iron Byron, the mechanical golfer that knocks flawless drives.
