South Highland

The rolling bluegrass terrain of western Kentucky creates natural amphitheaters for golf, and this municipal track maximizes every undulation with strategic bunkering that punishes lazy approaches. What sets it apart from typical public courses is the commitment to firm, fast conditions—the superintendent clearly understands that speed trumps perfection when it comes to playability. You'll find yourself reaching for every club in the bag across these 6,800 yards, particularly on the memorable par-4 dogleg that plays downhill to a green protected by a creek that's claimed more balls than a driving range picker.
