West Chase at West Chase Golf Club

West Chase Golf Club, a Brownsburg mainstay, delivers a classic Indiana golfing experience on a layout that favors strategic play over sheer power. Carved from gently rolling parkland, the course, designed by Ron Kernes in 1997, presents a fair test without the dramatic elevation changes found elsewhere in the state. Its design is more about smart course management. While not a championship venue, West Chase provides an accessible and enjoyable round for golfers of all skill levels.

The Kernes design incorporates tree-lined fairways and strategically placed bunkers that subtly punish errant shots, adding to the challenge. The greens, while not lightning fast, demand attention to detail and accurate reads. West Chase doesn't claim the hallowed grounds of major tournaments, but it fosters a vibrant local golf community, holding regular member events and leagues.

Its popularity stems from its welcoming atmosphere and unpretentious nature, which serves as a haven for those seeking a relaxed, enjoyable round rather than a pressure-filled competitive environment. Adding to its unique appeal is the club's rumored ghost stories, tales of unexplained occurrences, adding a mysterious lore that captivates both members and visitors alike.
