The golf community often views public courses as inferior to private clubs, assuming private courses have better resources, maintenance, and facilities. However, my experience working at Gillette Ridge Golf Club, a public course in Bloomfield, Connecticut, has shown me otherwise. Gillette Ridge is beautifully maintained, with stunning scenery and a dedicated staff who go above and beyond to create a welcoming atmosphere. Public courses like Gillette Ridge also offer more accessible pricing options, with single-round fees and affordable memberships, making quality golf more attainable for everyone. Next time you’re planning a round, consider a public course you might be surprised by the value they offer.
