3. Bethpage State Park (Red Course)
Farmingdale, N.Y.

Bethpage's B-list course lacks the drama of the famed Black Course, but that has its compensations: the Red costs a fraction of the price, is a lot easier to get on, and offers a more than adequate test of your game. This A.W. Tillinghast design will exhaust your long irons and Rescue clubs, thanks to four par-4s on the back nine alone of 463 yards or longer.

No. 11
