Brown Deer Park
Brown Deer Park Golf Course: Milwaukee's most renowned municipal course was originally designed by George Hansen and founded in 1929. The course was partially redesigned by Andy North and Roger Packard, and has hosted PGA Tour and USGA national championships.
The challenging layout is home to 60 sand-filled bunkers, tree-lined fairways, and a creek that's much in play, especially on the back-nine. The creek flows northwards through the course en route to the Milwaukee river.
Fanning out in two nine-hole loops from a clubhouse that's a designated historic site, the layout is walkable, well-maintained and generally affordable. The tree-lined parkland layout includes many attractive features and several excellent holes to enjoy. Certainly one to include on your play list if you are visiting the Milwaukee area.
Visitors welcome on weekdays and weekends.
Must book in advance.
Walking permitted. Golf carts available to rent.

French Open: Continental Europe’s oldest national championship, dating from 1906, is once again staged on the Albatros Course at Le Golf National, near Paris. Defending champion is America’s Michael Kim. (Sept 24-27).
Our visit last month included two rounds at Golf de Chantilly, one of France’s most prestigious clubs.
It offers two superb layouts: Le Vineuil, a five-star championship course with a rich history, and Longères, an excellent four-star course that provides a strong and enjoyable test.
The wider Paris region offers plenty more. Courses such as Fontainebleau, Golf de Saint-Germain, and several other top-rated layouts make this area one of Europe’s most rewarding golf destinations, offering a mix of woodland, heathland, and parkland designs.
