点评:I rarely leave reviews, but after my recent experience at Bedford Hills Golf Course, I felt compelled to speak up—especially for anyone considering playing here for the first time.
I paid $54 for two people to play just 9 holes, which is absolutely outrageous for spring golf, especially when the course conditions were nowhere near acceptable. Fairways were rough, greens inconsistent, and overall maintenance clearly lacking for the season. Yet, they’re charging peak-season pricing for sub-par conditions.
On top of that, the ranger's conduct was beyond frustrating. I waited behind a group the entire round who were hitting multiple balls off the tee and taking their time with no urgency whatsoever. Nothing was said to them until the 8th hole. Meanwhile, I played one extra ball on a single par 3—with no one waiting behind me—and was the one who got called out. I wasn't holding anyone up, and had played at a steady pace all day.
I understand wanting to keep play moving, but if you're going to enforce rules, enforce them fairly across the board. Being singled out while others were clearly doing much more was insulting and completely soured the experience.
All in all, it felt like I paid premium rates for a mediocre course and was treated poorly in the process. I won’t be returning, and I wouldn’t recommend it to others—especially when there are plenty of other courses in better shape, for better value, and with staff who know how to treat their players.
翻译:我很少留下评论,但最近在贝德福德山高尔夫球场的经历让我忍不住想说点什么——尤其是对那些第一次考虑来这里打球的人来说。
我花了54美元请两个人打了9个洞,这对于春季高尔夫来说简直太离谱了,尤其是在球场条件远不如人意的情况下。球道粗糙,果岭不稳定,而且整体维护明显不符合这个季节的要求。然而,他们却以旺季的价格来打低于标准的球场条件。
除此之外,球场管理员的行为也令人沮丧。我整整一轮都排在一群人后面,他们开球时不停地击球,一点也不着急。直到第8洞,他们才被提醒。与此同时,我在一个三杆洞上多打了一个球——后面没有人等着我——结果被罚出场。我没有耽误任何人,而且一整天都打得很稳定。
我理解大家想让比赛继续进行下去的愿望,但如果要执行规则,就必须公平地执行。其他人显然做得更好,却被单挑出来,这真是莫大的侮辱,彻底毁了体验。
总而言之,感觉就像我花了高价,却只打了一个平庸的球场,却受到了如此不公平的对待。我不会再来了,也不会推荐给别人——尤其是在还有很多其他球场状况更好、性价比更高、工作人员也懂得如何对待球员的情况下。
