Jeff Osterfeld is not a name familiar in golf course architecture circles, however among sandwich enthusiasts he is better known for being the founder of Penn Station Subs, a sandwich chain with locations across the eastern United States. As any good self-made man would do, he founded a golf club and, showing kindness to the rest of us, opened it to the public.
Osterfeld was bold enough to design the course as well, and we use the word “bold” in a literal sense, as he was clearly influenced by some of the bolder courses around the country. Water is a frequent opponent, impacting just over half of the holes. There is also an ounce of restraint, however. Rather than install a simple par three island green à la TPC Sawgrass, Osterfeld makes the green at No. 9 an island amid a rather short par five, thus allowing less confident players to make it in regulation with little concern while giving the low handicappers more to think about.
Likewise, No. 16 offers multiple routes, a pair of split fairways for those who wish to lay up, or straight to a green tucked up against a lake on this 310-yard par four. Fortune favors the bold, no?
