Item Description
One round of golf for 3 players with member Fred Schernecker '89 (Director of Harvard Golf) at The Kittansett Club in Marion, Massachusetts. Includes golf, caddies and lunch.
Mutually agreed upon date/time (must be used within a year of purchase - Nov 20, 2019).
Located on a point jetting out into Buzzards Bay opposite of Cape Cod, Kittansett enjoys one of the most charming locations on the eastern seaboard. The William Flynn design had hundreds of trees eliminated in the 90s under the direction of Gil Hanse who was hired to bring the course back to its roots; a coastal links experience. The length at Kittansett isn't intimidating, but the wind can be; especially at the signature 3rd hole that plays over the water and is completely exposed to the elements. Factor in relatively tight fairways and smallish greens, and Kittansett is able to challenge every player that tees it up. The course features rugged edged bunkers and with the routing offering a combination of coastal links holes and inland tree lined holes. The terrain is relatively flat and is an easy walk, especially with the assistance of a caddie. The inward nine is a more impressive loop than the outward nine with the par four 16th boasting the most impressive views on the property. The conditioning of the turf is impressive with the firm greens being a pure delight to putt on. The course reminded me quite a bit of Garden City Golf Club in New York due to the similar terrain, interior aesthetics, bunkering, conditioning, and old school feel. In conclusion, Kittansett has long been considered one of the finest tracks on the east coast which should be no surprise to anyone given the opportunity to step onto the property.
