TELEMARK GC

The northwoods terrain here demands precision over power, with elevation changes that'll leave your rangefinder working overtime through towering pines and native hardwoods. What sets this layout apart is how architect Larry Packard carved fairways that follow the land's natural contours, creating blind shots and doglegs that reward local knowledge while punishing the overly aggressive. The greens roll true despite the short Wisconsin season, and when the maples turn in October, you'll understand why serious golfers make the trek to this corner of the Chequamegon National Forest.
