YAHARA HILLS

This Robert Trent Jones Jr. design sprawls across the rolling drumlin landscape northwest of Wisconsin's capital, where elevation changes of 200 feet create the kind of strategic shot-making opportunities rare in the upper Midwest. The par-4 14th epitomizes the layout's brilliance—a downhill tee shot to a valley landing area followed by an uphill approach to a green perched against native prairie grasses. Jones maximized the natural topography to craft genuine risk-reward scenarios that reward course management over pure power.
