Nakoma Golf Club in Madison, Wisconsin is a great classic parkland course originally designed by Tom Bendelow and opened in 1925. We took great advantage of this perfect Fall day, got some nice photos and played excellent golf including some of the best greens I've played in Wisconsin. Two thumbs up, Nakoma.

Medinah Country Club, Course 1 (IL): Medinah’s Best Golf Course?

My favorite of the three courses at Medinah Country Club, Course 1 features great design, terrific routing and the best of all worlds: A lot of wide, forgiving fairways with strategic playability, great par 3's and 5's and a little bit of tree-lined parkland style thrown in for good measure.
