The Bull at Pinehurst Farms has the distinction of being the first Jack Nicklaus Signature Course in Wisconsin. This highly acclaimed golf course is ranked in the top three in Wisconsin and was ranked as one of the top 100 public courses in the U.S. by Golf Digest. Formerly the Pinehurst Dairy Farm, the rolling terrain was transformed into a challenging and scenic layout. The golf course stretches to 7,354 yards from the back tees. It is a round that will test both your distance and your accuracy. Mature trees and native grasses accentuate the lush greens hills. There are a variety of elevation changes throughout the course, some of which are seemingly benign but can actually be quite tricky. The golf course closes with a memorable par 4 that has water in play, in the form of a lake and a rocky creek, until the sloped green.

Awesome Fall golf

Greens are the best I've played on in a while. Fast and smooth even with all the water they received in the last week.

A hidden gem. Love this track!

Played The Bull for a second time this year - had a 89.00 rate on golf now and couldnt pass up with perfect 75 temps and fall colors. This is one of my favorite courses anywhere - so many different feels as you work through the areas of this track.

Its funny - the more people you talk to, this is the 'warm up' course folks coming into town play before the Straits and Blackwolf - but it turns out to be harder than both from what most say. Very challenging - forced lay ups and bunkers galore.

Cant wait to go beat up on my local muni after playing the Bull!

Nice…… but

Played last Sunday. Perfect weather, course in good shape.
Staff was outstanding…… course is nice and a typical Nicklaus layout. Lots of layups and forced carries. I’m 61, and not a long hitter, playing from the white tees gave me a chance to score. With the forced carries etc, many older players may have great difficulty playing here. Hard to know where a good tee shot would be on some holes.
All this being said, good experience, but for $125, I would much rather play other courses in the Green Bay/Milwaukee area, that are half as expensive or less, and just as nice, and a lot more playable to the 18 handicap player.

Fun, Tough Course

The Bull at Pinehurst Farms is a fantastic course. Most people would travel to Sheboygan for Straits or Black Wolf Run, but this is a great course in the area for a FRACTION of the price. The layout is difficult as everyone will tell you, but there are only a couple holes that really feel like you have to hit every shot perfectly. That being said, every hole (aside from a couple) is either a dogleg, has water, or has a ravine to clear. Use good course management and you can come away with a good score. Course was in pristine shape when I went. My only gripe is I'd like to see GPS in the carts since it would really help with knowing how far to carry hazards. I'll be back for sure though! You won't regret playing this course!

Spectacular!

This course was in immaculate conditions as well as being scenic and challenging. Friendly staff and beverage cart came around frequently.
If you are looking for a challenging course that has great views at a great value, I highly recommend playing here.
This course is better maintained than many country clubs I have played.

Superb Conditions

Fairways & Greens in superb condition, not a bad lie to be found. At 69 years old, played the white tees at 6,000 yards and challenge was perfect. Shot placement is critical and many forced carries are required to hit greens. Fairways are generous and there are some pretty steep bunkers greenside. Great course and a interesting and fair challenge from the right set of tees. My favorite course.

Superb Conditions, Excellent Staff

Having booked a 5:00PM tee time, I was concerned that I would not be able to finish 18 holes before darkness arrived. Playing as a single, I arrived a bit early and would be paired with a twosome that had not yet arrived. The pro shop attendant said if I wished, the tee was open and I could go off early but I would be following a league. He did propose if I wished, I could go off the back nine and play that first because if was fairly open. This worked out superbly and I was able to finish in plenty of time before darkness. The course conditions as usual were perfect and the course is very playable from the right set of tees with accuracy at a premium.

Superb Conditions, Challenging Layout

The Bull has become one of my favorite courses to play, the course is in superb condition with excellent lies on the bent grass fairways. Jack Nicklaus loved the high fade and you can almost see him thinking of that shot as he designed this course. There are forced carries throughout, but bail out areas do exist. Important to play the right set of tees so you have manageable shots into many of these greens. You will not be disappointed!

Superb conditions

Played the Bull the day after a day of all day rain. The course had drained exceedingly well including bunkers. Cart path only was understandable but course was not soggy at all. Lie in the fairway was amazing almost like ball was teed up. Kudos to the groundskeeper!
