Grossinger Country Club

About Grossinger Country Club:

Grossinger Country Club -Big G, is a Resort, 18 hole golf course located in Liberty, New York.

Grossinger is referred to as a country oasis among the elite courses in the Catskills. The course was designed by Joe Finger. He took land with natural elevation changes, lakes, creeks, hardwood trees and wonderfully routed it to reward ball flight and touch rather than brute power and distance.

Like Finger’s other Catskill course, the Concord Monster, each nine at Grossinger starts atop a hill works down into a valley and then back to the top of the hill. Many holes bend â€" most right to left â€" around bunkers and water hazards. With the changes in elevation come all kinds of uphill, downhill and side-hill lies.

If you're going to score at Grossinger, you must have control of your ball from uneven lies. Players especially like the risk-reward par fives, all reachable with well-placed drives, but loaded with danger and water hazards in front of the greens. The most memorable--and one of the most recognizable holes in the area-- is the 13th, one of the original holes to have an island green.
