Top 20 Golf Courses in Chicagoland

Just for the sake of argument, I have decided to publish my own personal list of the Top 20 Public Golf Courses in Chicagoland. This is completely unscientific, but takes into account playability, price, walkability, risk/reward opportunities, course condition, customer service, aura/tradition, and pace of play. I expect there will be some disagreement to my list, and I strongly encourage others to openly debate me via the comments area of this blog post.

Without further ado..."the" list:

1. Cantigny Golf

2. Thunderhawk Golf Club

3. Prairie Landing Golf Club

4. Pine Meadow Golf Course

5. Cog Hill - Course #4 "Dubsdread"

6. The Glen Club

7. Ravisloe Country Club

8. Stonewall Orchard Golf Club

9. Bolingbrook Golf Club

10. Harborside International - Starboard Course
