Best choice when visiting Milwaukee

Suggestions for a good public course in Milwaukee? Right now I’m thinking Brown Deer, but I’m open to suggestions. Thanks!

Brown Deer is a great call.

Brown Deer is THE call for the City of Milwaukee, proper.

 

Adding counties adjacent to Milwaukee County expands your choice of really good public courses: Washington County, Morningstar, Erin Hills, Broadlands, Nagawaukee, Fire Ridge, and The Bog.

 

Obviously, Erin Hills is a bucket list course and you'll pay a premium.

Washington County is the best value as it is a kind of miniature Erin Hills at 1/5 the price.

Nagawaukee is also a good value, but a step below WashCo. Like WashCo and Brown Deer, it's a muni course (county-owned) but nicely conditioned.

The Bog is weakest in terms of value. I'd only choose it if you were actually north of Milwaukee and intended to play 36, as it is a mix of difficult holes (forced carries with no bailout areas) and gimmicky holes (blind shots).

 

TBH, if I had to choose between Brown Deer and Washington County, I don't know which one I would take. I think both are about the same price, although you might catch a few bucks off WashCo on a hot deal from GolfNow.

Thank Phreddy. He gave it to you first!

 

And, have a great time at Brown Deer. A true gem. It's sad the PGA Tour abandoned places like Milwaukee and Brown Deer Park...
