West Bend Lakes Golf Club sits along the Milwaukee River in West Bend, Wisconsin, with an 18-hole layout framed by mature trees and home to a variety of wildlife.
The round begins with a mid-length, relatively straightforward par 4, where a stand of pines pushes into the left side of the fairway and calls for a carry of roughly 230 yards to clear. The green accepts approaches from distance but has a false front running about 25 feet deep, with a bunker short and left and a drop-off behind the putting surface leading into a waste area of heavy vegetation.
The second is a short par 4 with water guarding the left side over the final 150 yards, making pulled shots costly from both the tee and the fairway. A tee shot placed to the right takes much of the water out of play, while a cluster of four large trees can block the second shot if driven too far. The green is mostly flat but breaks toward the pond, with two tiers at the back.
