What You Need to Know about Michigan Golf Courses

Do you know…when in Michigan on business or vacation, where does the golf veteran with a penchant for short game challenge go for fairly temperate weather and pristine course conditions that contribute to optimum playability? Michigan golf courses.

Do you know…where does the golf neophyte go for Scottish links style courses that have a built-in forgiveness for beginners? Michigan golf courses.

Do you know…from par-nines to par-fifty-fours, Michigan golf courses--offering private and public facilities, fast greens, undulating fairways, and treed or treeless and true—provide the finest in traditional and contemporary play.

Do you know…with manicured courses, strategically configured and placed holes and artfully arranged shallow to cavernous bunkers, OB areas, and water hazards on shifting elevations, Michigan golf courses provide a variety of challenges while alternately facilitating flow and speeding up play with manageable yardage and re-routed nines.

For example, public Michigan golf courses such as Chardell Golf Course and Lakeside Links Golf Course—opening in 1968 and 1960, respectively—offer treed and true 18-hole and 27-hole fairways that have reputed playability, Chardell being small enough to make for an exceptionally demanding game and Lakeside Links having a slope of 116 to make for great playability. The Bucks Run Golf Club, Green's Superintendent, and Wawashkamo Golf Club courses, too, present the fun challenges of variable winds, up and down terrain, and water and sand bunker hazards, calling for the inevitable ball placement and perpetual placement that such nuances require.

Likewise, Rogers City Country Club, Pheasant Run Golf Course, and Verona Hills Golf Club have created stunning tree-skirted environments with challenges and playability factors for every family member of any skill-level.

In the same respect, private Michigan golf courses such as the 18-hole Marquette Golf and Country Club and Detroit Golf Club give golfers greens measuring 6,209 yards from the championship tees—to par 71--and measuring 6,837 yards from the black tees—to par 70—respectively.

Likewise, Port Huron Golf Club, Walnut Hills and Franklin Hills Country Clubs, and other private Michigan golf courses and facilities offer beautiful bent Bermuda grasses, tight fairway play, and after-game club and banquet rooms to accommodate from 100-650 players.

You might not have known the details of the Michigan golf courses, but you will now. So the only thing else you have to know is what you likely silently chant every time you put a golf toe to the green and a club to the tee: “Know where the flag is. Know where the flag is. Know where the flag is.”
