So this trip has been in the making since this last winter. My two best friends and 4th are heading to north central and northeast Minnesota this weekend to play the top 4 public courses in 48 hours.
We will begin our trip with a 4am wake up call (at the latest) on Friday morning, followed by a 3 hour drive and 8am sharp tee time at The Wilderness at Fortune Bay (#2 ranked). After the round, we will hop in the car for a 40 minute drive to The Quarry at Giants Ridge (#1 ranked).
Saturday morning will start at Deacon’s Lodge (#4 ranked), followed by a long lunch, and finish the round with traditional caddies at The Classic at Madden’s (#3 ranked).
To add to the fun, we’ll be playing mini golf at Pirates Cove On Thursday night before the trip begins. We have a game planned for each round, and is sure to be a heck of a trip. 3 current Golf Digest top 100 courses, and the other is a former top 100, and a Arnold Palmer design.
We will probably be adding a bunch of picture and vids to our Instagram stories, so follow along if you’re interested in live action (we aren’t that cool, so don’t get your hopes up 🤣. Otherwise I’ll be doing a formal review afterwards that can hopefully be a featured article. But @dphatt and @Eddie will be a tough act to follow with their inaugural article.
