Tough 2nd shot into the 4th green Stairs up to the par 3 7th tee Raised tee at the 13th hole

I landed in Detroit so my first course was The Sharf, just outside Detroit in Oakland, its owned by Oakland University and the land was donated by the Dodge family, they must have sold a lot of cars because the amount of land they handed over, the university was able to build to world class championship golf courses with practice facilities to match plus a campus that you need a car to get round. One stipulation that the Dodge family made was the land was not to be used for contact sports, they obviously didn’t take into account the mental pain golf can inflict on a person!!

Stand out holes for me were: The run of holes from the par 3 3rd through to the 7th are a great run of holes that you will enjoy playing especially 5th. I loved the second shot down hill to the tough green. The back nine was really enjoyable especially the 12th which is a drivable par 4, followed by the 13th a great driving hole from its elevated tee and I really enjoyed the finishing run of holes from the 16th.
