Wisconsin Named Among Best States For Golf
If you love golfing, this will be very welcome news. Wisconsin was just named one of the best states for golf.
What makes a state great for golf, you ask? In this instance, the top states for golf for 2024 were chosen based on the number of courses, average weather conditions, how many people visit to golf and of course, the quality of the courses.
While Wisconsin might not have the whole 'great weather' thing going for it, it looks like the Badger state really succeeded everywhere else!

This study was done by Hot Spring, a store that specializes in spas and such. To no surprise, Florida came in at number one. Coming in shortly behind the sunshine state is Wisconsin, being named the third best state for golf.
Something that propelled Wisconsin to the top of the list is the fact that ten courses in the state made an exclusive list put out by Golf Digest, ranking the 100 best courses in the country.

According to this study, Wisconsin has 509 golf courses and eighty-nine good weather days, meaning sunshine. That's more than I would have thought in both instances!
As for Minnesota, we didn't make the top ten but we still have a lot to brag about, including 478 golf courses and three that that special list in Golf Digest. We also have two pretty special golf courses that have been named among the most unique golf holes in the state.
Happy golfing!
