Rating 76.3

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.

A Golf Digest Top 100 Gem

Many people visiting wisconsin tend to visit Kohler or Sand Valley, but don't miss out on The Bull. This is an incredibly unique course in Wisconsin that features a beautiful and challenging layout that works the amazing river view and woodland landscapes into it's design. The course was in fantastic condition and the staff are all very accommodating and friendly.

Nice course

I played a twilight rate. The course was immaculate and the property enormous, making it feel like we had the place to ourselves. Everything was perfectly maintained. However, the teenage staff at the starter didn’t assist with the bag drop or bringing carts around. As predicted, they expected a tip at the end for polishing already clean clubs.

Another dimension to golf

I try to play The Bull at least once a year. It's a very challenging course cut through the Kettle Moraine Forest and hills. Being located just down the street from the Kohler courses, it has a lot of their characteristics. Bring a handful of extra balls because the terrain has quite a bit of unforgiving rough. If you can stay close to the fairways it's a very manageable course.

A beautiful course

Played "The Bull" for the first time in over a year and was very impressed. The new owners have done a great job with bunkers, greens and fairways. Unfortunately, this all comes with a price. The "top 25 Wisconsin courses" list greens fees from $69-$89. I have rarely seen this for less than $100, and mainly in the $129-$149 range. With the Kohler courses just down the road, I am sure they feel it is a bargain.

Tremendous Condition

Played the Bull a day after two days of torrential rain had hammered the area. Yet course conditions at the Bull were perfect. By my tee time of 3:20 every bunker on the course was raked, dry and sand fluffy. Amazing kudos to the groundskeeper. Great layout with shot placement crucial. Loved it!
