The Links is a must for golfers


Published in the Ocean County Observer 6/09/05

BRIGANTINE -- Legend has it, according to the course's literature, that before heading overseas to play in the British Open, professional golfers in the 1920s would practice at The Links at Brigantine Beach.

While it may not be possible to prove such legends, it sure would make sense. A course that's true to it's name -- when most golfers envision a links course -- they envision a course like Brigantine. Windy with fescue-lined fairways and peppered with bunkers that protect large, undulating greens, The Links at Brigantine is the epitome of links golf in southern New Jersey.

Located on the bay, The Links was built in 1927 and designed by architects Wayne Stiles and John Van Kleek. Nearly 80 years old, the course has survived and even flourished, maintaining its reputation for excellence and continuing to garner rave reviews. In an area where a new golf course seems to sprout up every year or two, The Links continues to draw a crowd.

The course plays at 6,524 from the tips and 6,214 from the white tees. Ladies play the course at 5,203. As players make their way through the course, which winds throughout the surrounding neighborhood, they are assisted by a global positioning system that provides the yardage, pin location and tips for each hole along the way.

There are no cookie-cutter holes at The Links. No two tee shots are alike and the par-4s from the whites play at lengths from a scant 316 yards to an impressive 410 yards. The par-3s vary from 142 yards to 198 while the par-5s range from a short 440 to a long 534.

But neither the scorecard nor the information on the GPS take into account the wind, which substantially changes the lengths at which the holes play. A 200-yard approach that seems impossible can sometimes be reached with little difficulty. Meanwhile, a chip shot can be shoved back so far it almost lands behind the golfer who hit it.

The course opens with a par-5 that plays at 460 yards from the whites. A dogleg right, the green is reachable for some, but not many. Although the fairway is wide open, a creek runs down the middle of the fairway about 150 yards in front of the green. Players must decide if they want to carry the water or lay up and leave a long approach into the green.

A short, 327-yard par-4 awaits golfers on the 2nd hole. With water down the right side of the fairway and a bunker guarding the left side of the green, golfers can stay out of trouble by making a smart decision off the tee. There's no need to kill it with the driver to have a fair approach on this short hole.

The 3rd hole, a 198-yard par-3, is a great test to determine how the long irons are working. Golfers must contend with water and a bunker standing between them and the promise land in order to keep the score low.

The 5th hole, a 396-yard par-4, is the second most difficult hole on the course. It's not the length so much as it is the layout on this dogleg right. Golfers can play out to the fat part of the fairway, but in return will have a long shot into the green and are most likely looking at a bogey. The other alternative is to fly the ball over the trees and the rough and land with a 100 or so yards from the green. The difficulty here, besides the need for length, is in avoiding the homes that line the right side of the fairway. Backyards are out of bounds at The Links.

The back nine opens with the longest hole on the course, a 534-yard par 5. After a relatively risk-free tee shot, golfers must choose a club to hit into a narrow section of fairway protected by fescue. The green is protected by water on the right about 40 yards before the hole with bunkers behind it. The left side of the green is also well-guarded by bunkers.

The back also features the most difficult hole on the course, a 410-yard, par-4 17th that can easily change a scorecard for the worse. A slight dogleg left, the hole has water located about 240 yards from the tee. It's not possible to see it from the tee box and what looks like a decent drive may actually be in the drink. The green is protected by a sand trap on the left.

Perhaps the best part of The Links experience is the greens.

True-rolling and extremely fair, the large greens reward good putts while not punishing golfers who miss by a few inches with a 10-foot putt back to the cup.

"They're the best around," said James Shellum, Brigantine. "I love putting here."

There is also plenty to enjoy when it comes to plunking down some hard earned cash for a round of 18. Located right outside Atlantic City, it would be easy for the management at The Links to charge an arm and a leg for a round of golf, making money off the tourists while effectively stifling local play. Instead, The Links prides itself on providing a great golf course at a fair rate, allowing locals to make it a course they can play every week.

Throughout the summer, rates during the week are $69 from open to 1 p.m., $44 from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. and just $30 after 4 p.m. Friday, Saturday and Sunday the rates increase to $79 before 1 p.m., $54 from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. and $35 after 4 p.m. For those who feel they don't need to play in the morning to have a great round, it's tough to beat the twilight rates, which, like all the rates, include the cart and the GPS service.

One of the oldest courses in the region, The Links continues to improve and maintain it's reputation as a must-play for locals and tourists alike.

Surfer reports shark attack

Thursday, June 9, 2005

Teen bitten, needs 60 stitches in foot
By TOM LOUNSBERRY
Courier-Post Staff

An apparent shark attack, the first off the New Jersey coast in 30 years, will have little immediate effect on visitors to Cape May County beaches.

Michael Hamilton of the Ocean City Beach Patrol said his agency has not received any official word of the incident. Absent that, it has no plans to impose bathing restrictions.

"We do not expect to do anything different this weekend," Hamilton said.

Other beach patrols surveyed said they plan to continue monitoring the water but did not foresee closures.

Ryan Horton, a 17-year-old from Lacey Township, told authorities a shark bit him Sunday when he fell off his surfboard off Surf City in Ocean County.

"It felt like a baseball bat had whacked my foot," Horton said. "He bit into my foot and tore off a big part of flesh and skin."

Horton received 60 stitches in his foot and is expected to make a full recovery.

George Burgess, curator of the International Shark Attack File, saw photographs of Horton's wound and said it was a shark bite.ADVERTISEMENT - CLICK TO ENLARGE OR VISIT WEBSITE

"It was pretty much a slam dunk," Burgess said Wednesday.

The teeth marks, season and region indicate Horton was attacked either by a young great white shark or a sandbar shark, Burgess said.

Based on what he has read, one South Jersey expert agrees that a small great white probably was responsible for the bite.

"The water temperature at the shore is just breaking 60 degrees. It is too cold for sandbar sharks and other sharks that pup (give birth) in the backwaters of the bay. Great whites can tolerate the colder water," said Marc Kind, curator of fish and invertebrates at Adventure Aquarium in Camden.

Kind cautioned, however, that another sea creature, such as a dolphin or bluefish, could have bitten Horton.

It was 1975, the year the film Jaws was released, when someone was bitten by a shark in New Jersey, Burgess said. That one occurred in Sandy Hook. The last New Jersey fatality from a shark was in 1926.

Kelly O'Neill had no qualms kayaking past the breakers off the Wissahickon Avenue beach in Ventnor on Wednesday for just that reason.

"Sharks don't normally attack people," said O'Neill, a 23-year-old nurse at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania who is spending the summer in Ventnor.

Even though the odds were in her favor, it was of little comfort to Kathleen Rosetta of Ventnor, who stayed out of the ocean Wednesday after hearing of Sunday's incident.

"I saw dolphins in the water and even that was scary," Rosetta said.

Surf City Mayor Leonard T. Connors Jr. said he's caught several sharks while fishing in the surf. He emphasized that shark bites are rare but not unheard of.

"Anybody who thinks they can go into the water without the remote possibility of encountering a shark is kidding themselves," he said. "But I think it's so remote and rare I wouldn't worry about it."

Brigantine, N.J. (PRWEB via PR Web Direct) June 3, 2005 – The Jersey Shore's fastest growing marketplace for home rentals and sales, www.brigantine4rent.com and www.brigantine.4sale.com, are now offering Really Simple Syndication (RSS), an XML-based format for distributing online content to a wide number of people.

Using the latest technology, Brigantine4rent.com and Brigantine4sale.com have already begun creating RSS feeds to inform its subscribers of new property rental and sales listings posted to the Web sites in real time. RSS is a format for syndicating news and the content of news-like sites, but it's not just for news. Virtually anything that can be broken down into discrete items, such as vacation rentals and property listings, can be syndicated via RSS.

RSS readers aggregate multiple feeds, making it easy for individuals to quickly scan information contained within each feed. Feeds are generally themed, allowing users to opt-in to feeds that are of interest. If the RSS subscriber is interested in a particular property, for instance, and wants additional information, s/he can click on the item in the feed, accessing the Web site, which contains additional details.

The RSS feeds are yet another free service for those seeking vacation and residential properties rentals at the New Jersey Shore as well as brokers, agents and property owners in the Brigantine and the area surrounding Atlantic City.

Brigantine4rent.com and Brigantine4sale.com offer a free service for brokers, agents and property owners to advertise their properties on the Internet for free, as long as they need and with no obligation. Vacation house seekers in New Jersey and homeowners in the Brigantine area can search for properties at the Jersey Shore quickly, easily and effectively. In real time, landlords, agents, relocation specialists and brokers can also post and manage multiple property listings with photographs for free. Prospective home buyers and apartment renters either see the ads or monitor RSS feeds the instant they are posted to the Web.

The two Web sites continue to retain NetSolutions (www.netsolutionsgroup.net) to enhance the Web presence of the site through updated graphics and search engine optimization techniques. They chose NetSolutions because of its ability to enable real estate agents and other business-to-business clients to gain a competitive advantage in the marketplace through business and IT consulting.

The Web sites are not brokerage companies and do not collect commissions or information. There is no communication between the Web sites and potential clients; the service is simply a free, self-service advertising vehicle.

About www.brigantine4rent.com and www.brigantine4sale.com:

The Brigantine4rent and Brigantine4sale Web sites started out several years ago solely as an advertising vehicle to market a 4-bedroom, 2-bath oceanfront house for rent in Brigantine, N.J., at a modest $2,500 weekly. Because the rental of the home (http://www.brigantine4rent.com/default.asp_Q_f_E_cpg_A_pg_E_ViewListings) was so successful, the online advertising arena was opened to the public last year. The sites quickly became the online leaders in the Jersey Shore marketplace for home rentals and sales, connecting property seekers with leading real estate agents and those who rent or sell “By Owner.” The sites continue to gain nationwide popularity, particularly among people relocating and vacationers from California, New York, New Jersey and the Philadelphia area.

Shore home prices, sales rise



AVI STEINHARDT/Courier-Post
`Avalon fit the bill' for Judy Cohen, of Berkeley Heights, Union County, whose family bought an oceanfront home with five bedrooms and a pool. The house is assessed at more than $4 million.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------




By WILLIAM H. SOKOLIC
Courier-Post Staff


Bill and Pat Berger bought their first. So did Judy and Larry Cohen. Joe and Linda O'Donnell moved up to their second.

In the past year, these couples joined a growing number of seashore home buyers from Long Beach Island to Cape May. The nose dive in the stock market, the lowest interest rates in years and an aging baby boomer population looking ahead to retirement have all combined to drive up home sales and prices on the shore, real estate agents report.

"This was something we always dreamed of having, but we never realized it was affordable," said Bill Berger of Collingswood, who purchased a three-bedroom, two-bath bath condominium in North Wildwood with all the comforts of home. "Down the road, we will give serious consideration to retiring here."

Real estate agents report a surge of summer home sales and continuing high demand even as prices skyrocketed - driving up the cost of admission to shore living while providing a tidy appreciation in property values to people who bought homes just a couple of years ago.

A duplex assessed at $300,000 on Long Beach Island two years ago is worth $600,000 today, said William Hyatt, assessor for Long Beach Township. In Loveladies, oceanfront lots that had fetched $1.2 million now command $3 million. A beachfront property in Brigantine sold for $400,000 four years ago, but now sells for $1.5 million. A lot of property values have doubled in the Wildwoods.

The escalation in prices has not cooled off the buying fever.

At Atlantic Coast Realtors in Brigantine, the pace has been frenzied from the summer into the fall.

"Business hasn't stopped. We have 31 settlements ready to come up," Joseph A. Musumeci, a Realtor with the firm, said last week.

Sales are up more than 30 percent in Brigantine this year, said Musumeci, citing last year's opening of the Atlantic City Connector as a contributing factor.

"We're seeing people who would go to Longport or Margate because it was too hard to get to and from Brigantine. Now we can be on the expressway in three minutes," Musumeci said.

The $1 billion Borgata set to open next summer just over the Brigantine bridge has also attracted interest.

Bricks, not stocks

Joe Mayo, broker-owner of Re/Max Long Beach Island, said sales are still moving and "we still get multiple offers." Over the summer, he said, some homes were snapped up within an hour of listing.

Fall is a prime time to buy shore homes because buyers can examine properties closely without intruding on summer renters. The only decline is usually during the holiday period from mid-November through December.

Bea Zitomer, a broker for Zitomer Realty in Margate, said the market for homes over the past few months has been the best she's ever seen.

"People are more than a little nervous putting money into the stock market. They prefer bricks and mortar," she said.

A flat rental market and a spurt in construction on the islands hasn't hurt sales. Most of the new building involves tearing down older homes and replacing them with newer models, often duplexes.

Some 1950s motels in the Wildwoods are also being knocked down and are being replaced by condos. "They sell like hotcakes,'' said Jim Flynn, of James M. Flynn real estate in North Wildwood.

The Wildwoods are among the few shore locales where vacant land still exists. New condos are slated for the bayfront, while million dollar homes are set for the oceanside in Wildwood Crest.

Half the homes purchased these days are bought for personal use. Many other buyers both rent and set aside certain weeks for their own use.

"It used to be properties were almost exclusively for investment. In the last couple of years, many have switched to personal use, so it's now about 50-50," said Chip Collins of Berger Realty in Ocean City.

Rentals still do well, but the downturn in the economy has lessened the desire to spend $3,000 to $5,000 for a week at the Jersey Shore.

"I think people view housing as an appreciated asset," Mayo said. "They'd better buy now, or it may be out of reach later."

The Cohens, of Berkeley Heights, Union County, grabbed a beachfront manse in the high dunes in Avalon last year, abandoning 11 years of renting in Sea Isle City.

"We wanted a single-family home with a pool on the oceanfront and a minimum of four bedrooms. Avalon fit the bill," said Judy, whose husband, Larry, works in information technology for a brokerage firm.

Their new summer house has five large bedrooms. Tax records show it is assessed at more than $4 million.

Not every seashore community carries the weighty price tag of a Harvey Cedars or Avalon.

Sea Isle, for example. "We're where Avalon was four years ago," said Justin Sgalio, of Sofroney Real Estate in Sea Isle.

Joe and Linda O'Donnell, both middle school teachers from Gloucester Township, sold their one-bedroom condo this year in favor of a two-bedroom version at the Sea Islander in central Sea Isle. The upgrade came prerented for five weeks.

"The other five weeks are for us," said Linda, who anticipates a rush of relatives.

The O'Donnells rejected Ocean City as too crowded and too big. "Unless you stayed near the boardwalk, you had to drive. Sea Isle is a little smaller," Linda said.

More people are seeking less expensive housing on the bayside outside of Cape May, said Christina Clemans, the broker for Chris Clemans & Co. Realtors, in Cape May. "They can't afford an ocean view," she said. Beachfront homes carry a $3 million price tag. Even bayfront properties go for up to $1.6 million, she said.

The once downtrodden Wildwoods offer some of the best deals on the seashore. Prices are up 50 percent in the last 18 months, but are still much lower than other towns, $150, 000 to $200,000 lower, said Bob Bryson, of Century 21 Alliance, a real estate office on the island.

The good deals helped sell the Bergers of Collingswood on North Wildwood.

"North Wildwood has everything we look for. Affordability. It isn't very crowded. Homes are not built on top of you. And it's still close to the boardwalk for our son," said Bill Berger, an industrial salesman. Pat works for the federal government.

How long will the boom last? Thanks to the casino explosion, Musumeci sees at least three to five years of growth in Brigantine.

Sgalio, of Sea Isle, expects the number of home buyers to level off.

"Even with new construction here, the level of inventory is at its lowest point in at least 20 years," he said. "I think you'll see less sales, but with higher numbers."

Flynn said the Wildwoods have far to go before approaching its neighbors.

"If we catch up, it won't be a bargain anymore," he said. "But we don't look at that as a negative. I'd rather sell a $300,000 than $200,000 unit. It's good for the whole town.''

Riptide Fishing Report

5/31/05 Mon Wow! What a holiday weekend. Fish were travling out of the inlets on either side of the Island and moving up and down the beach. People were catching fish in spots were there are not supposed to be any fish. The king fish moved in and anybody using bloodworms were getting some nice fish. Flounder also picked up with several fish being weighed in including Hugh Brown who weighed in a fat 6 pounder. Low tide is at 9:00 am and high is at 3:21 pm winds are let and it should be a great fishing day unless you are going back to work.

Good Luck Capt Andy

Hugh Brown with a nice flounder on 5/29/05

5/29/05 Sun Let the summer games begin! Brigantine had a great crowd yesterday with many people fishing. The weather couldn't make up her mind,sunshine, clouds,and then sunshine again. Looks like it should be another good fishing day. The king fish came in and the stripers are still swimming up and down the beach. Blues are all over and blow fish are also popping up. Todays low tide is at 7:01 am and high is at 12:27 pm with winds 5-10. Good luck Capt Andy



5/28/05 Sat Had a nice 45 1/2" 30 1/2 lb striper weighed in by Capt Steve Laskowski. I new it had to be a big fish when I received a call at 10:30 pm to get out of bed and come take a picture. It was caught off the beach using the infamous Riptide rotter clams, as the guys told me the stinkier the better. They closed the beach on friday at the old coast guard station, but you can still drive to that point and then hoof it the rest of the way. Todays low tide is 6:02 am and high tide will be at noon. The winds are light and variable and it looks like the holiday weekend is getting off to a great start. Call if you need updated info on weather, winds or anything at all. Good Luck Capt Andy

Jersey Shore Investing, The Emerging Investment Location

by Ken Fowser

The hottest segment of an already "Very Hot Real Estate Market" is exploding at the Jersey Shore.

Many people in their 40s and 50s who are taking money they would have invested in the unstable stock market are buying vacation homes.

Property values at the Jersey Shore, have been bid up as high as 25% to 30% a year for the last 5 years by buyers in New York, Philadelphia, North Jersey and Washington D.C.
It is a matter of "Supply and Demand" They aren't making anymore beach. In Ocean City NJ, there are only 18,000 taxable properties and hundreds of thousand of people visit and vacation in that shore town every summer and have for years.

The baby boomers are the bulk of the buyers. Typically they are 2-income families who have children that just graduated from college and left the roost. Their primary homes are paid way down or paid off. They get a large sum of money from an inheritance and the first thing they want to do with it is buy a 2nd home or investment property at the beach.

Many people are partnering up with a friend or family member to buy homes at the shore. That makes them more affordable.

Interest rates are still at record lows and with creative financing; folks are buying properties with as little as 5% to 10% down.

The Jersey Shore has some of the Hottest Real Estate in the whole country for investment and life style pleasure.

Check out this Money Magazine link of the nations hottest zip codes for real estate and you will see that investing at the Jersey Shore is a "No Brainer"
