COURSE OVERVIEW

The prairie winds that sweep across this Illinois layout demand respect, especially on the back nine where mature oaks frame elevated greens that punish anything but precise approach shots. Ken Killian's routing maximizes the natural undulation of former farmland, creating blind shots and strategic angles that reward local knowledge over raw distance. What elevates this daily-fee gem above typical Chicago-area fare is its commitment to firm, fast conditions that make even mid-handicappers think twice about aggressive pin-hunting.
