Bull at Pinehurst Farms
Rating Snapshot
About
The Bull at Pinehurst Farms has the distinction of being the first Jack Nicklaus Signature Course in Wisconsin. This highly acclaimed golf course is ranked in the top three in Wisconsin and was ranked as one of the top 100 public courses in the U.S. by Golf Digest. Formerly the Pinehurst Dairy Farm, the rolling terrain was transformed into a challenging and scenic layout. The golf course stretches to 7,354 yards from the back tees. It is a round that will test both your distance and your accuracy. Mature trees and native grasses accentuate the lush greens hills. There are a variety of elevation changes throughout the course, some of which are seemingly benign but can actually be quite tricky. The golf course closes with a memorable par 4 that has water in play, in the form of a lake and a rocky creek, until the sloped green.

Superb Conditions, Challenging Layout
The Bull has become one of my favorite courses to play, the course is in superb condition with excellent lies on the bent grass fairways. Jack Nicklaus loved the high fade and you can almost see him thinking of that shot as he designed this course. There are forced carries throughout, but bail out areas do exist. Important to play the right set of tees so you have manageable shots into many of these greens. You will not be disappointed!
Always a fun round at the bull. Very challenging. Price was awesome seeing we used the golf now hot deal. Usually its in the 100 mark. Range balls included with greens fee. Went mid day, played in under 3 hours. Never really had a wait here though.
Perfect fall afternoon
Tough track, beautiful layout. Will definitely come back in the summer months.
New owners have made some changes
Course was in great shape,
Noticed a few changes,
Cut quite a few trees making it feel a little less intimidating off the Tee.
Filled it a lot of bunkers with grass,
Not sure why
A very good test of golf, one of the tougher courses in Wisconsin
Will play again
Great experience
The Bull at Pinehurst Farms does not disappoint. Always have a wonderful experience. The courses is in great shape, family friendly yet challenging. I would suggest playing the handicap recommended tee box, bit if you wish to grab the Bull by the horns ..back it up. Njoy!!
Overall
Played here several times. Not a fan of a lot of target golf.
Played the appropriated tees for my handicap. (13) Yes a senior. Great condition overall. I wish golf courses would take a good look at yardage when it comes to par 4's holes and handicaps when it comes to distance. I think you would get more players to play.
Fantastic!
Not for the inexperienced! Play it safe and don't take chances.
Course is filled with sand bunkers.
Greens are well protected.
A shot makers course.
A great experience
I've played at The Bull 5 or 6 times over the years, but not in the last few years. The course was in excellent condition and I felt like I was playing a truly special course. My only negative is that our cart didn't have a GPS screen, so I wasn't able to readily access my yardage, the terrain ahead, etc. I'm not sure if it was just that way for our cart or all of them.
AMAZING Course!
For our first time there The BULL far exceeded our expectations!
Every aspect of the course conditions were exceptional, especially the condition of the greens.
We can’t wait to play again!
