About this course

Running Deer Golf Club is a semi-private course in Pittsgrove, Salem County, and the flagship of the Ron Jaworski Golf network. Ed Carman designed the par-72 layout, which opened in 2000 on 300 wooded acres, and his sons ran the professional shop and maintenance in the early years. After the club fell on hard times, Jaworski's group bought it in 2008 and restored the conditioning and clubhouse. From the black tees it stretches past 7,000 yards with a slope of 133, and every hole is secluded among the trees. The course has hosted U.S. Open local qualifiers and was ranked among New Jersey's top 20 by Golf Digest in 2005-06. Seven Tap-Tavern handles the post-round meal.

Town & Country Golf Links

Woodstown, NJ · 14 mi away

Town & Country Golf Links is a public daily-fee course in Woodstown, Salem County, designed by Carl Gaskill and opened in 1999. The two nines play differently: a links-style front with generous fairways and wide greens, and a tighter back nine that rewards accuracy and shot-making. Rye grass fairways and bent grass greens are lined with deep rough and tall fescue, and seven ponds plus strategic bunkering keep the wind, water and sand in play. The par-72 layout measures about 6,496 yards from the gold tees. Golf Digest gave it four stars in its Best Places to Play guide, and the practice facility includes a night-lit driving range with grass and mat hitting areas.
