On Monday, we left Columbus and flew to Milwaukee and drove to Kohler, Wisconsin, of bathroom fame. The trip took a bit longer than planned and I was late for my 2PM tee time at Black Wolf Run’s River Course. The starter was terrific, however, and hooked me right up with a threesome of commodity traders who had driven up from Chicago for a day of golf. They had played the Meadows course in the morning and were about to tee off on the River Course.

The course was absolutely gorgeous and quite difficult. The first hole is 534 yard Par 5 that gets you warmed right up. The 8th holed, named Hell’s Gate, is another difficult Par 5, downhill with a forced carry. I ended up shooting a 112 on the River Course at Blackwolf Run. Not particularly good but it was a beautiful day on a beautiful course.
