Seven Oaks Golf Club - Colgate Universität

The Seven Oaks Golf Club – Colgate University is located in the small town of Hamilton in Madison County, which belongs to the US state of New York. It runs across the campus of the Colgate University, at the foothills of the upper Chenango Valley, in an idyllic landscape lined with trees. The Seven Oaks Golf Club – Colgate University is located only two minutes away from the town center of Hamilton, while it takes almost four hours from New York via the NY-17 W to get to the club. In 1958, after several attempts, it first opened a 9-hole course that was finally expanded to an 18-hole course in parkland style with par 72 in 1965. The world-famous golf course architect Robert Trent Jones Sr. was in charge of its design. He designed a 6,249-meter-long course with long, open fairways lined with trees and large, fast greens. Some doglegs, large bunkers and especially water hazards, such as ponds and streams that cross the fairways and have to be overplayed by the golfs players, characterize the layout of the course at the Seven Oaks Golf Club – Colgate University. Golf players of all levels can handle the athletically and technically challenging course well. Golfweek Magazine regularly places the course among the top 25 of the best college golf courses. In addition, the course is among the top 10 of the most impressive college courses and the best golf courses in the state of New York.
