Had the honor of being invited to play Sand Hills, Ben Crenshaw's masterpiece in Mullen, Nebraska. There is definitely a reason this course has been rated as one of the top 10 in the world. Absolutely fantastic.
A total links experience that rivals anything in Scotland or Ireland. Built on the sand dunes over acquafers, Crenshaw drew out 132 different holes before settling on the 18 that would become the course. Where most courses measure approx 5 miles tee to green, Sand Hills is between 7 and 7 1/2 miles. You can play the course 10 times in 10 days and because of the weather and wind it will be a completely different experience each time. If you would like to see really incredible vistas, google Sands Hills Golf Course and check out some of the reviews and photos. In fact, Golf Digest was there during our stay to do a pictorial for one of their specialty books.
