    Lassing Pointe is a fun public track down in Kentucky that I always enjoy getting out to, but it definitely sees a ton of play — and you can tell. The layout has a few really fun holes mixed in with some that are just okay, so it’s a bit of a mixed bag overall.

    I’ve been lucky enough to play both Kendale and Kenview at Kenwood Country Club, and both are fantastic — but Kendale definitely takes the top spot for me. It’s a classic, traditional layout that recently went through a pretty extensive renovation, and you can really tell.

How we rank

This ranking uses published scorecard data from each course’s longest men’s tees, the same tee set for every course. Only 18-hole courses with a yardage for every hole, a total that matches the hole-by-hole sum, and a par between 54 and 80 are included, and the tees must carry a single slope rating (55–155) and course rating. Courses whose scorecard duplicates another course’s are left out until the data is fixed. Courses are ordered by slope rating, then course rating, then Course Vaults score. Only open courses with a published Course Vaults score (at least 5 explicit ratings) are eligible, and a page is published only when at least 5 courses qualify. City pages include courses within about 25 miles of Lawrenceburg, so nearby suburbs can appear. Rankings refresh about hourly.
