Finding enjoyment in the game of golf

Wisconsin 72 in 72 ~ Day Three

Our final day was spent at Blackwolf Run, the elder of the two Kohler properties. If I had to describe the ambiance of Blackwolf Run, I’d say it was summer camp but instead of team building exercises and possible leech encounters you have pristine golf conditions and a real good time.

Day two started early and with much better weather, perfect for the 36 holes we had in store. Whistling Straits was a short drive away from our Sheboygan accommodations. In contrast to Erin Hills, Whistling Straits felt grand and far less subdued. It was meant to be bold and it was all that and more.

Wisconsin 72 in 72 ~ Day One

This summer my college roommate Mike, already featured in my East Potomac post, asked if I wanted to meet up with him and two work friends (B.Y. and Jeff) in Wisconsin for 72 hours and play 72 holes of golf. Normally these “Lower 48” type excursions are difficult for me to pull off but as luck would have it I was already in the Midwest visiting family. Therefore, making the trip to Wisconsin was rather easy, something as an Alaskan I would categorize as a luxury.
