Strong play

Whistling Straits - Straits Course

#4

Straits is the reason many groups come.

Strong play

Whistling Straits - Irish Course

#65

Irish suffers from being next to a celebrity sibling.

Strong play

Blackwolf Run - River Course

#17

River is not the backup plan.

Strong play

Blackwolf Run - Meadow Valleys

#92

Meadow Valleys is not filler, but it is the easiest Kohler course to cut if the budget, legs, or calendar get tight.

Strong play

The Baths of Blackwolf Run

The Baths is exactly what Kohler needed: something fun that does not require everyone to get punched by Pete Dye for five

Strong play

Erin Hills

#10

Erin Hills is the philosophical counterweight to Straits.
