Bethpage Black is by far, the most difficult course I have ever played. When not in US Open condition, it's a bit easier, but still a bear. It's long, the rough is extra thick, the greens are undulated, angled and like glass, and the bunkers are severely penal (tee hee). My best on the Black is a 93 from the tips, which I am very proud of.
They also have Yellow, Red, Green and Blue, which are challenging in their own right, but nowhere close to the Black. - hscesq
wow 93 is amazing from the tips, 93 is my best score at a average difficulty 6000 yard course. I would probably shot 130+

Yes, that's probably accurate. I played with a couple of friends that shot around that number. The problem is, there is no get out of jail free. If you hit in the rough, you take your wedge out, period. You will not be able to hit a mid iron. If the lie is exceptional, perhaps a rescue club can reach the ball, but it is not worth the risk. Bogeys become triples very quickly on the Black.

The guy asked a question and I responded with vast knowledge. I understand that most of you are incapable of comprehending such things, and as such I will ban all of you shortly.
