Best Golf Course Bridgeport Near Me

4worldlovers:
Fairchild Wheeler offers two challenging 18 hole golf courses. The Red Golf Course demands accurate tee shots which will leave most golfers with mid to short irons for their approach shots. Don’t let that fool you because the Red Golf Course has tough greens that will make most golfers double and triple check the breaks.


The Red Golf Course features 6,568 yards of golf from the Championship Tees for a par 72. The course rating is 71.0 and the slope is 124.


The Black Golf Course features 6,559 yards of golf from the Championship Tees for a par 71. The course rating is 71.5 and the slope is 123. The Black course has beautiful winding hills, great scenic views and delivers a challenge with newly renovated fairway and greenside bunkers.


Besides Two Great Golf Courses, Fairchild Wheeler has so much more to offer. Fairchild Wheeler is home of the First Tee of Metropolitan New York and Nike Junior Summer Golf Camps. The Golf Shop is fully stocked and the wide open driving range allows you to hit short irons up to your driver. After playing 9 holes stop by Vazzy’s snack bar for a quick bite or enjoy a few drinks and some happy hour pizza in Tommy’s grill after your round.

Step 1. Take your ball mark repair tool and insert the prongs into the turf at the edge of the depression.

Note: Do NOT insert the prongs into the depression itself, but at the rim of the depression.

Step 2. Push the edge of the ball mark toward the center, using your ball mark repair tool in a gentle twisting motion.

This is the step where golfers who incorrectly “repair” ball marks usually mess up. Many golfers believe the way to “fix” a ball mark is to insert the tool at an angle, so the prongs are beneath the center of the crater, and then to use the tool as a lever to push the bottom of the ball mark back up even with the surface.

Do not do this! Pushing the bottom of the depression upward only tears the roots, and kills the grass.

Wrong: Using the prongs as levers to push up the bottom of the depression.

Right: Using the prongs to push grass at the edge of the depression toward the center.

4worldlovers: We were saddened to learn that the smoke from the Canadian wildfires earlier in the year dramatically affected the migration of the monarch butterflies in Connecticut. We have only been able to find a small number of caterpillars to date.

In the past week, we have seen an increase in the number of butterflies on the course. We are constantly checking the course for caterpillars and hoping to get more this season. The purpose of this project is to help the endangered Monarch Butterfly. This year we have added pollinator and native plants to the existing Glen #1 garden and added a brand-new native garden on the Glen #5 as well as maintain our existing native gardens.

We know that several of you have already donated to the project. We understand that you are as disappointed as we are. However, we want to let you know that the funds collected this year will go toward adding native and pollinator plants at the Trumbull Arts & Nature Center as well as educational programs for children.
