Course Overview

Hey fellow golf enthusiasts! If you haven’t had the pleasure of teeing off at Blackwolf Run Golf Course in Kohler, Wisconsin, you're in for a real treat. Nestled in the lush Wisconsin River valley, this scenic beauty hosts two stunning 18-hole courses – the River Course and the Meadow Valleys Course. These courses are a masterpiece of golf design, artfully integrated with the natural terrain of streams, woodlands, and sprawling meadows.

Let’s talk about a standout hole – the 9th on the River Course, affectionately dubbed 'Salmon Trap.' It’s a tricky par-4 where precision beats power every time, thanks to an undulating fairway and a green fiercely guarded by a large pond. Trust me, choosing the right club here is more about strategy than strength.

Opened in 1988 and designed by the legendary Pete Dye, Blackwolf Run was crafted with the majesty of major tournaments in mind, including the U.S. Women's Open in 1998 and 2012. For first-timers or seasoned pros, remember: accuracy is your best friend on these courses, where natural hazards are as beautiful as they are challenging.

So whether you're looking to test your skills or just soak up some spectacular golf scenery, Blackwolf Run should definitely be on your list. Swing by and experience a slice of golfing paradise!
