Description

You are bidding on a custom print of the
Chicago Golf Club's
course layout.-
"America's First 18-Holer"
Chicago Golf represents one of America's grand old designs. It is laid out across mostly flat Midwestern farmland, with tall waves of native fescue and large putting surfaces which define most of its MacDonald holes. Oak trees dot the landscape but seldom affect play, while water, in the form of a single lake is encountered only twice. Thus, in no fancy way or overbearing, Chicago Golf is a course defined by two overriding charms. Despite being 5urrounded by suburbia, the vast expanse of land and thickly foliaged boundaries still give the club a wonderfully isolated feel, and it represents the quintessential demonstration of the MacDonald-Raynor design style, for its square greens and bunkers, and manmade contours are obviously at odds with the native terrain, yet somehow, manage to feel natural. It remains among the most interesting and historic golf courses in the US. In fact, it differs only some 5 yards from the yardage played in the 1928 Walker Cup matches versus the 2005 Walker Cup.
