Everything at The Brute is oversized. The bunkers are huge. The fairways are wide. The greens are expansive. The elevation changes are significant. (There's no way I would walk this course.) It was fun, but I felt like it was more presentation than substance. For comparison sake, I'd much rather play Hawk's View, Washington County, or Prairie Woods. Those courses are similar in condition and quality, but more interesting and, ultimately, cheaper.

About half the holes at The Brute will challenge the placement of your drives. 10 in particular requires careful placement. The course overall was quite beautiful, it definitely felt like a resort experience. The carts are maybe the best I've seen in Wisconsin, the staff were great. The course was fairly dead on a Monday and so I spent some time searching for balls and was well rewarded, lots of Pro V1's in the trees, just be prepared for nettles to coat your entire body.

Overall, I'm glad I came out, but I don't think I'll be coming back soon. The Golf Now hot deal rate was worth it, but there are other courses I like more for less money.
