5th, Bandon Dunes

Wakonda Golf Club

USA, Iowa
4.6 (5)
Course Opened: 1922

In Volume 3 of The Confidential Guide to Golf Courses, Tom Doak published that.

“For generations, Wakonda was considered the best course in Iowa, though it has been supplanted by a new Tom Fazio course in the capital. The older club might still reign supreme if they hadn’t spoiled the hilly terrain with misguided tree plantings, taking the big scale of the course and Langford’s great fairway bunkering out of play. Even as a shadow of its former self, it’s got enough character with its wild par-5’s, severe greens and a great opening hole to be worth a stop if you’re ever in Des Moines.“

Wakonda Golf Club received a score of 5 out of 10 from Tom Doak.
