Friar's Head

Summary

Friar's Head is a private 18-hole golf course in Riverhead, New York, USA, within the broader USA - Northeast golf landscape. The course follows a parkland layout, a style commonly associated with inland golf, tree-lined corridors, more sheltered playing conditions, and a routing that tends to reward placement from tee to green. It is attributed to Bill Coore and Ben Crenshaw and traces its origins to 2003, details that place the property within an earlier generation of American course design and give it a profile consistent with many long-established courses of the same era.
