My Dad was a scratch golfer and did a lot of business on the course on many top courses around the world. He was a very straight hitter. When he played Pine Valley he said the caddies vow that they will find any ball you hit. He shot 78 that day. RIP Dad
I had the great fortune to play this course 8 times before the member died. IMO, it is the greatest golf course in the USA if not the world. I have played most of the great courses in Scotland. Every single hole is like the most beautiful cathedrals in the world. You rarely see another 4some. I am a bogey golfer, always around an 11-15 index. My best round ever at PV was 99, worst 115, playing by the rules of golf, counting every stroke. I have birdied holes there, I have taken a 10 on a hole. Even after shooting 115, I wanted to keep playing. I still have all 8 scorecards. Nothing describes the feeling driving through the gate after you have played it the first time. Getting the call to play again, maybe 2-3 weeks ahead of time, left countless nights unable to fall asleep, so looking forward to the approaching day. Pine Valley will always be my most favorite course that I have ever played. I dream of getting the call to play this once more before I die.
Growing up as a Black child in Pine Hill, NJ... I actually had the opportunity to sneak on the course with my childhood friends in the early 70's through the woods behind the Overbrook High School... Little did we know how exclusive and private that course was... It was just some where for us to go through our daily summer adventures...
Dr. A. MacKenzie said, “Pine Valley, with the possible exception of Cypress Point is the greatest course on earth”. I concur. I had a tear in my eye walking to the 18th green. I said “Wow” to my self on every tee, and every green. No rakes? Who needs a rake when playing off a sandy clay surface more like a waste bunker. Bring a sand wedge or three (54,58,62) or some set like it, without much bounce lest you skull every bunker shot however. My 63’ with little bounce reaped dividends for me around the greens. Surprisingly fair golf course. Very honest test regarding shot values both off the tee and into the greens. That is the beauty and elegance of P.Valley. It is so fair and balanced (short hole, long hole, medium hole, dogleg left, dogleg rt.) and visually each tee and approach shot looks and feels special with so many contrasting colors of sand and scrub surrounding them. ❤️ it.
I was blessed to be invited to play two rounds at Pine Valley several years ago. After parring the first hole, Pine Valley grabbed me by the throat and wouldn't let go. After registering the highest score of my career, I promised I would play better the next day, I improved my score by a stroke but loved every minute of my experience. It deserves it's number one world ranking.
Played in 97 when St Andrew’s Uni visited. Wow! We were treated like gods and the course, practice ground and par 3 course were the best I’ve ever seen. Truly amazing golf course. Once in a life time experience. We went on to play Sinnecock Hills, Merion, Atlantic, Yale to name a few. But Pine Valley was the best by far.
As a college student out on the East Coast for the 1981 NCAA Basketball Final Four taking place in Philly, I suggested that the six of us in our car go visit Pine Valley on our day off. No guard was visible at the entrance, so we just drove on in. LOL. We made our way to the clubhouse and looked around for about thirty seconds before somebody stopped us. We asked if we could buy some souvenirs. Ahem, no. LOL. We were asked to leave. We did. I haven't been back since.
Lived in south Jersey all my life, within 5 miles of pine valley and had the honor of playing this course as a 17 year old back in 1986 and even though I knew it was "allegedly" world famous at the time locally it was not only considered exclusive but also impossible to find. I now know it is in fact world renowned but I can attest that it truly lives up to its reputation. It's an amazing golf course.
I played this very young. It’s a testament to how incredible the course is because I still remember those bunkers like it was yesterday. Still probably the hardest course I’ve ever played in my life.
I just played 4 straight rounds here late October 2023, the weather was magical!! I stayed on the grounds the entire time, I consider myself the luckiest man on earth!! I entered the grounds as a 6hcp and when I left PV i was a 7.5hcp😮 THIS PLACE IS A FANTASY LAND!!!!! There is Nothing better in the world#1!!!!
Not only is it the greatest, hardest, and #1 ranked golf course in the world, it's the most beautiful in all of golf, anywhere. I get emotional just looking at it.
When asked to name the best and most memorable No’s 1-18 holes that he has played around the world, Colin Montgomerie calmly said, “all 18 holes at Pine Valley”!
Love that bit about the caddy getting a hole in one on a par 4. That would never happen 40 miles away at Merion because the caddies are not allowed to play the course. Pine Valley's caddies get to play Pine Valley once a month.
I grew up near there, surveyed up to the fence, and even saw the tax maps for this place before I became a golfer yet this is the first time I have ever seen what this course actually looks like. What an amazing course! I absolutely know I could not play this course but I can appreciate why it's called the best course in America!
Augusta National holds that title sorry. This course is just bunker after bunker, that doesn't make a good course, actually a horrible one. It reminds me of so many dog tracks in the world, little grass and junk everywhere else
@@chosen1one930 Augusta National is a paradise for every hack bogey golfer out there. Its a wide open parking lot with no rough. Its a place serious golfers play for fun compared to Pine Valley where they go to get tested. Augusta is like a punching bag as Pine Valley is like Joe Frazier that being relentless. Pine Valley is notorious for its murderers row of golf holes as Augusta is known for drum roll please a green jacket and that says it all.
It’s on my bucket list to attend a Crump Cup so I can see this course in person. It looks amazing. It’s easy to see why it’s the top ranked course in the world. I’d LOVE to see an exhibition match be played here. Seminole had one earlier this year, why not Pine Valley??
I have played it twice and thrilled to break 90 with an 8.2 index… They used to sell a postcard set of the 18 holes. I had these professionally matted and framed with a scorecard in the middle. The centerpiece of my office.
Looks awesome but I have to wonder, if it were as easy to play Pine Valley as it is Pebble Beach or Pacific Dunes, how would it's ranking be affected? Exclusivity is a funny thing; it can be tricky to appreciate exactly what it is that you're enjoying.
There are lots of clubs that are just as or more exclusive.Have to wonder if Pebble Beach and Pacific Dunes werent on TV for the PGA Tour to promote would they be in the top 50?
I think that they had a tournament here years ago on TV. I remember watching the golfer enter the bunker. He went down to where his ball was, you could not see his head!!! That is how deep it was.
I worked at Cypress point at pebble beach at pebble beach and at spyglass and I love to get lots of input and By looking at Pine valley course it is a very beautiful course and I love the no raking bunkers it's and a bunker is a trap beautiful course I would love to visit one day
Accidentally walked into the halfway house during the Crump Cup this past September, not knowing couldn’t enter. Kid inside was nice enough to tell me that I couldn’t be in there, but it’s pretty cool to see the hundreds of golf balls they have in there.
This place is truly the greatest golfing destination in the world. It is understated, majestic and terrifying at the same time. I have been lucky enough to play it and every time I have driven through the gates I have thanked everything and everyone who has made it possible. Anyone who knocks it doesn't understand what the true Pine Valley experience is.
@@touristguy87 I think your mind set is off, where you have the will and desire to do something, no matter how impossible it may seem, you can do it. Back in 2006 it was my goal to go and play this golf course and I figured out a way to do it. Now in 2020, I know personally at least 120 members at this golf course and most of the staff. I know the president, Jim Davis who I don't like. The old president O' Gordon Brewer, Jr. The director Charley Raudenbush. The head pro Dave Clarke. The old caddie master Lenny Ward and ect.
It is a fantastic course and is a top-5 course in the nation every year, but I can't imagine it is better than Cypress Point or Augusta National. I think once you get to that level thought it is not that one course is better than the other, but it is what you like more in a course that makes it better in your own mind.
Such a beautiful golf course, but crazy hard, makes me think why people want to play this game, it is so hard already, but still we dream about playing courses like this :}
Can you guys shoot this one again actually showing the holes? On #1 it's shooting backwards and into the trees. You don't get a flyover of the hole. Same on #2. Love the series!
I would love for Pine Valley to figure a way to host a major. I mean Cypress Point and even National Golf Links dont have the yardage for modern pro majors. Pine Valley's only problem is a place for fans to stand. It would be tight and probably no where near the crowds Augusta National sees during Masters weekend, but boy if any course deserves it most its Pine Valley. Can you imagine a U.S. Open or even PGA Championship at this darling. It wouldnt take much setting up in terms of how it plays to challenge even the best.
So why aren't there any PGA Tour events here? Too hard for the pros? I think more courses should be designed like this, more risk/reward requiring target golf and putting prowess versus cater to the long bomber. I loved this video. This course is on my bucket list.
emps002 Man, do I ever agree with you. Couldn't have said it better myself. I thought I was one of a dying breed who still loves the short game and could care less about a 325-yard drive.
One guy said he still dreams about his round there. I'm having nightmares just watching the video. Way to difficult for me. Are only low handicap players allowed to play there ?
No rakes at Pine Valley. They're ahead of their time. Now all golf courses are... rakeless. And we have a new golf term, the 'foot rake'. I like it. And its always winter rules. Just find a good spot in the bunker. I don't know about the pros tho. It'll be interesting.
I think this is the course where Arnold Palmer used to hustle as an unknown amateur, legend has it that he broke the course record whilst staking his last 50 bucks.
If they were to ever have a major at pine valley now would be that time because crowds aren’t an issue because of social distancing. But it’ll never happen.
he either means that he needs to take a mulligan to get on in 2 or that it takes him 3 shots to get on instead of 2 shots which is regulation for the par 4 since its a tough 2nd shot
I have walked it on the day of the Crump Cup as a spectator. The only day you're allowed on the course. It is NOT an impossible tricked up course. It is a par 70 and if someone shoots a 70 then then hit 70 quality shots. 1 bad shot could wreck you score. For the average hacker you not going to really appreciate this course. It is a course for a very low handicapper. The greens breaks are subtle and the fairways are rather large. Again 1 really bad shot and you'll never sniff par.
I have played both as a guest Oakmont is still harder they actually keep the greens faster for members and Oakmont then when the Open was there they run at a 14-15 for members yes pine valley is tough but oakmonts greens are next level look in 2007 when they made Oakmont hard the winning score was +5 lol 20th place that week had a final score of +14 and these are the best of the best the dummied it down and made the greens slower in 2016 because players were complaining not to mention the rough you hit it in there and good luck you would rather be in a bunker oh and its LONG
Only thing that scares me is the distance off the tee to get to the fairway. Meaning the long par 4s. I need like 30 yards more distance which would be 280 with driver. I hit exactly 250. I’m cool with all the other stuff. I’m one of the best around the green. I wanna play the long par3 just use a driver. I’d still be short though. I wouldn’t rank this #1, maybe difficulty but no way getting St. Andrews or Augusta, sorry.
Really great video. Think I speak for many others when I say I’d love this to be done for many of the other great courses of the world, particularly a course like RCD, Cypress point or Dornoch that we would be unlikely to see otherwise. Portrush would be great as well with the open next year.
Pine Valley golf course, June 8, 2002. I have no recollection of the day whatsoever. My tee time was at 9:08 and I was playing alone with a cart. My next conscious memory is on august 15, 2002. Nobody knows if a golf ball hit me, if possibly a tree limb fell on my head, or unlikely that I was attacked. They found the cart sitting near the cart path and I was off in the woods, apparently. The greens keeper thought to look around for me the next day where they found the cart. Oddly, I was in fact conscious but unable to stand or talk. It is doubtful that if he had not found me, I would have expired by the next day.
Do you take narcotics, or get loaded. I snuck on Pebble Beach whilst tripping on mescaline. It was majestic, but it seemed lost on the Japanese guys that told me to go somewhere else quickly.
Course flyover DEMO @L4to Help me get in contact with the right people in the Golf industry everyone. I need to fly for all of the courses the PGA uses! Check out the link above. It is some clips of Gaillardia country club in OKC.
My Dad was a scratch golfer and did a lot of business on the course on many top courses around the world. He was a very straight hitter. When he played Pine Valley he said the caddies vow that they will find any ball you hit. He shot 78 that day. RIP Dad

I caddied there for 5 summers. Best experience. 13 is my favorite. 15 is crazy hard. I miss every hole.
How were you able to caddie there?
when did you caddy there i was in 1985 1986

sounds like you'd really enjoy standing in a street and getting pissed on by every dog that passes
does your mom know that you're not taking your meds?
I was fortunate enough to play this course. I still dream about it and wake up with a smile.
What’d you shoot?
Mid 80's. You can score on Pine Valley if you use your head and keep your ego in check.
Val Gray how much to play it??
How did u get on
I was a guest.

I reckon I’d shoot in the mid seventies on this course, then I’d start on the back nine😱😱😂😂

Pine Valley.....one of my favorite courses to play...the 150 yard bunker on # 7 is sensational, and a terrific 18th hole. Tom Jewell
Signing off on your RUclips flex is a classic flex..
Oh please let Pine Valley host the US Open!
if they only allowed 500 spectators then maybe
Coronavirus would be the perfect time for this.
Unfortunately, I don't think a club as exclusive as this wants the publicity :( We may be wishing forever & ever
The pros would eat this course alive
@@josephpinto6988 they missed their chance in 2020. Played with no spectators due to covid. They should have found a way to make it happen.

I would need like 3 boxes of balls just to finish this course
Extraordinarily well-made video of a spectacular course.
I wanna play here just to see if I could sneak 1 par in somewhere. that would make it worth it.
Jesus! Can this course get any harder?
It's actually not as hard as it looks if you keep it in the fairway. Start hitting it left or right off the tee and you are in for a long day.
Already with the yardage it would be difficult and then me missing the fairway would equate to a high score
Play it when you're drunk
Well - it could be windy.....
They made it way easier over the years.
Amazing course
I’m shooting a 150 on
This course
So beautiful, I can almost imagine I'm there ... looks challenging, but thrilling.
I think that they had a tournament here years ago on TV. I remember watching the golfer enter the bunker. He went down to where his ball was, you could not see his head!!! That is how deep it was.
Byron Nelson played in a "Shell's Wonderful World Of Golf" here. You can find the entire match on RUclips 👍
The 1985 Walker Cup was held there, but good luck finding video of that!
I'm going to play this and after watching that trip around the course, I'm not sure why. Ill be out there all day. Great walk in the woods.
Would love a redo of this video with modern quality
It’s coming soon
I worked at Cypress point at pebble beach at pebble beach and at spyglass and I love to get lots of input and By looking at Pine valley course it is a very beautiful course and I love the no raking bunkers it's and a bunker is a trap beautiful course I would love to visit one day

Mike McCoy holds the competitive course record shooting 64. One of the greatest rounds of golf ever played.

Such a beautiful golf course, but crazy hard, makes me think why people want to play this game, it is so hard already, but still we dream about playing courses like this :}
Can you guys shoot this one again actually showing the holes? On #1 it's shooting backwards and into the trees. You don't get a flyover of the hole. Same on #2. Love the series!
I just see this being anything more than beautiful to look at. Looks like 18 holes of epic frustration for me
Epitomises Golf as a game ruined by golfers. A classic, demanding course that the majority of golfers will never get to play.
In a perfect world, the logistics would be there for Pine Valley to host a U.S. Open.
Played with a golf writer that played this course and ALL he talked about was how exclusive and how tough the course was.
um, exactly, it's not even about how good the course is.
it's about how masochistic and elitist the people are who play it
Wow, just incredible

emps002 I’m guessing spectator issues? Those trees and bunkers give no space for viewers. Just a guess though.
I also imagine a club so private doesn't want the publicity
Cause the course can’t handle the foot traffic like in the winter we have to resod a lot of dead spots
Members won't allow the traffic
emps002 Man, do I ever agree with you. Couldn't have said it better myself. I thought I was one of a dying breed who still loves the short game and could care less about a 325-yard drive.
I thought I wanted to somehow play this course until I saw this video!
Played here many years ago when I actually was a golfer. Shot a 91 with triple bogies on 8 & 17, two of the easiest holes on the course.
Are we gonna talk about the two identical greens on the 8th? Never seen anything like that before.
Like a centerfold, it's another beautiful thing I'll never see in person.
Great video 👏🏼
Great video
One guy said he still dreams about his round there. I'm having nightmares just watching the video. Way to difficult for me. Are only low handicap players allowed to play there ?
Nope! Not all members are low handicaps. But memberships are invite only, you need to be real important in some way.
High handicappers are the equivalent to Henry Kissinger's 'useless eaters'.
“You will never forget it.”
Because you’ll never be able to play it.
No rakes at Pine Valley. They're ahead of their time.
Now all golf courses are... rakeless. And we have a new golf term, the 'foot rake'. I like it.
And its always winter rules. Just find a good spot in the bunker. I don't know about the pros tho. It'll be interesting.
You're wrong about the Newspaper 7. I watched that match last night and he plays every stroke (no pickup).
I think this is the course where Arnold Palmer used to hustle as an unknown amateur, legend has it that he broke the course record whilst staking his last 50 bucks.
That's a neat looking golf course.
If they were to ever have a major at pine valley now would be that time because crowds aren’t an issue because of social distancing. But it’ll never happen.

I have played both as a guest Oakmont is still harder they actually keep the greens faster for members and Oakmont then when the Open was there they run at a 14-15 for members yes pine valley is tough but oakmonts greens are next level look in 2007 when they made Oakmont hard the winning score was +5 lol 20th place that week had a final score of +14 and these are the best of the best the dummied it down and made the greens slower in 2016 because players were complaining not to mention the rough you hit it in there and good luck you would rather be in a bunker oh and its LONG
great video! what is the music at the end?
Only thing that scares me is the distance off the tee to get to the fairway. Meaning the long par 4s. I need like 30 yards more distance which would be 280 with driver. I hit exactly 250. I’m cool with all the other stuff. I’m one of the best around the green. I wanna play the long par3 just use a driver. I’d still be short though. I wouldn’t rank this #1, maybe difficulty but no way getting St. Andrews or Augusta, sorry.
St Andrews? cmon man. There are better golf courses in most counties than St Andrews
Why is it called a "Newspaper 7"?

Really great video. Think I speak for many others when I say I’d love this to be done for many of the other great courses of the world, particularly a course like RCD, Cypress point or Dornoch that we would be unlikely to see otherwise. Portrush would be great as well with the open next year.
Pebble and Cypress are on here - narrated by Jim Nantz.
Pine Valley golf course, June 8, 2002. I have no recollection of the day whatsoever. My tee time was at 9:08 and I was playing alone with a cart. My next conscious memory is on august 15, 2002. Nobody knows if a golf ball hit me, if possibly a tree limb fell on my head, or unlikely that I was attacked. They found the cart sitting near the cart path and I was off in the woods, apparently. The greens keeper thought to look around for me the next day where they found the cart. Oddly, I was in fact conscious but unable to stand or talk. It is doubtful that if he had not found me, I would have expired by the next day.
Do you take narcotics, or get loaded. I snuck on Pebble Beach whilst tripping on mescaline. It was majestic, but it seemed lost on the Japanese guys that told me to go somewhere else quickly.
Almost certainly carts are not allowed on this course but good try
We need a pga tour event here wgc or major
I would be lucky to break 135
I love augusta
wait...two greens on same hole?? Can you use either???
The one in play on a given day has the flagstick
Jesus Christ I wouldn't break 120 on this course. Looks amazing though.
Has Pine Valley ever hosted a US Open, PGA Championship, or any PGA event?
That sounds funny he said it takes him 3 to get on in 2 what does that even mean.
I assume he means he has to lie
It’s that tough , it’s figurative speech
The golf world won’t admit it, but Pine Valley needs to have LOTS of lumber chopped down to retain its status as #1
where and why
My friend Ray uses Titelist balls because they go farther out of bounds then any other ball, so he would ace this course.
2030 US Open host anyone? Would certainly be a formidable venue...
I've eaten 10 tacos at that very taco bell parking lot
