WHERE IT RANKS#84in Chicago— Ahead of Lake Shore Country Club, just behind Bull Valley Golf Club
COURSE OVERVIEW
The windswept prairie land north of Chicago delivers golf at its most elemental, where Donald Ross sculpted greens that dance with subtle undulation and reward only the most precise approaches. The routing weaves through mature oak groves and open meadowland, demanding strategic club selection as prairie winds can turn a routine 7-iron into a white-knuckle 5-iron in a heartbeat. These crowned, pushed-up putting surfaces—classic Ross fingerprints—will humble any golfer who takes them lightly, especially when the pin seeks sanctuary behind one of his signature false fronts.
