Rating 75.3

The Bog in Saukville has consistently been ranked as one of the top 10 golf courses in Wisconsin. At 7,110 yards from the back tees, it is a course that will test both your distance and accuracy. The course takes no time in introducing its challenges. It opens with an uphill par 5 that requires a straight tee shot in order to avoid the bunkers that line both sides of the fairway. There are also at least 12 bunkers within 100 yards of the greens just waiting to swallow up errant shots. The golf course also provides a scenic round with mature trees and lush landscaping enclosing most of the holes. It can be a tough test but different sets of tees make it more approachable. The Bog is also a popular place for its practice facility, which includes a driving range and short game area.

Better know the course to score. Tricky gteens to read. One small mistaken aim can ruin your score.

Five Somes Welcome -Poor Pace of Play -Lousy Customer Service

Played the Bogs today. Nice challenging course. Stuck behind a slow five-some-4:45hrs on a Thursday.

Brought our concerns up to the owner who wasn't interested or concerned. He explained that five-some's were allowed and occur regularly. Told us that we should be happy that we could play there as most courses were under-water (untrue)

We didn't feel welcome or appreciated. Our concerns were not important. Not worth the $95 price or discounted price.

Owner needs to treat people better if he wants return business.

NOT A PREMIER GOLF COURSE -POOR MANAGEMENT.

I think that I will go to somewhere that appreciates my business.

Five Somes Welcome -Poor Pace of Play -Lousy Customer Service

Played the Bogs today. Nice course challenging.

Stuck behind a slow five some -4:45 on a Thursday.

Brought it up to the owner who told us that fivesomes were allowed. Told us that they were one of the only courses open as most were under water (untrue)

Didn't feel welcome or appreciated with our more than valid concerns. Not worth the $95 price or even the discounted price. Owner needs to treat people better if he wants return business.

BOG is a difficult course

Make sure you play from the proper tees. When we played the Blue tees were less than 10 yards shorter on many of the holes. We should have played White at 16-17 handicaps in mid-seventies.

Soggy

Unfortunately with record rain 3 days earlier we were restricted to cart path only which effects my game and club selection. Not the courses fault and we couldn't reschedule so we played on.

Not worth the price!

This course is like your 40 year old high school crush...20 years ago it was probably super pretty and well kept but now a days has a few kids and is in rough condition but still wants you to pay top $. For what they charge this course should be in great condition and its not.

The design is great offering 18 unique holes with interesting use of elevation and natural water features .

Greens have numerous patchy areas that can significantly impact putting, but the areas that are not damaged run pretty quick/smooth.

Blind Shots

I think the course has a very unique layout but is has to many blind shots where you cant see the green or know where to hit. Felt more like it was target golf.

Better than expected

The course for a Sunday was open and our foursome completed 18 holes in 4 hrs 6 minutes. Challenging course with spectacular views . Greens were fast and in excellent condition. Fairways were clean and the rough was challenging but not impossible . Bunkers were all raked and sand was free of rocks and leaves . Overall a great experience and we will be back
