SentryWorld is the oldest 'destination' course in Wisconsin, built in the 1980s long before Whistling Straits, Erin Hills and Sand Valley. The course’s 200+ acres of terrain are decorated with various tree species and water hazards, but it's the beautiful flowerbeds surrounding the signature par-3 16th hole that get all the attention.

Original architect Robert Trent Jones Jr. was brought in to restore SentryWorld in Stevens Point to its place among the great public golf courses in Wisconsin, if not the entire Midwest.
Golfers rated the top golf courses in Wisconsin, from metro Milwaukee to top resorts and destinations like Whistling Straits, Lake Geneva and Wisconsin Dells.
Texas is full of golf history, including historic courses you can play. Stevens Park, Brackenridge park and Lions Municipal are among the collection of classic courses in the Lone Star state.
Municipal golf courses have had a shaky reputation over the years. Will the trend of renovation rejuvenate golf at the local level and help grow the game?
The Dallas-Fort Worth area has a wealth of good to really good public golf courses. But what may surprise you is that it has one of the best collections of municipals courses in the country. Both Dallas and Fort Worth proper have some pretty good munis, but even better are that many of the suburbs have some outstanding municipal layouts by some pretty good designers. Best of all, they're all very affordable. Here's a rundown of some my favorites.
Golf Advisor reader 'Frank' wrote to us and asked: "My US handicap index is 15, and my home course handicap is 17. What handicap do I use when playing in Ireland, where they do not have course ratings?"
Here's a question I get a lot when people ask me about playing golf in the Dallas/Fort Worth area: Where can I find cheap golf that's worth playing? Fortunately, that's an easy one to answer. And there are a lot of answers. While the DFW area certainly has its share of higher-priced courses such as the Cowboys Golf Club and Tour 18 Dallas, there are a lot of bargains out there, and many of them are quite good.
For having only nine golf courses, Kauai greatly overachieves in quality; its top courses can hold their own with any on the Hawaiian Islands. A bonus: it's so small you can see each of Kauai's courses on one trip, Brandon Tucker writes. And that's a good thing, because no single course is a supreme favorite here. Each member of your group may come home with his or her own darling.
Renovated and redesigned by Colligan Golf, Stevens Park is the jewel of Dallas' municipal system and is one of the best munis in the state. Check out our photo gallery.
More than 36,000 flowers frame the famous 16th hole at SentryWorld, but the truth is the entire Robert Trent Jones Jr. course is worth the trip to central Wisconsin.
