Valhalla is one of those courses that splits opinion. Some swear by it, others will tell you it’s overrated. The truth probably lives somewhere in between. What’s undeniable is how beautiful it is.

Chariot Run is one of Indiana’s most underrated public courses. Wide fairways tempt you to swing freely, but the thick rough and slick bentgrass greens demand precision.

Bunkers guarding almost every green, and not a ton of trees in play. Holes 2-4-9 are solid on the front, but I definitely prefer the back nine. 11-14-17-18 are my favorite holes. The view from 18 tee is insane. Great range and putting green, bonus points for a dedicated short game area!

Super fun track. Lots of variation in the holes, and a LOT of OB. If you’re hitting driver well, you have a chance to go really low. Played after a ton of rain so it was super soft and slow, otherwise conditions were fantastic.

Fun layout, but conditions left a lot to be desired. Fairways were super long, tees/approaches were super patchy, greens were fast but bumpy. Would love to play when it’s in top shape.

Super tight and hilly. Typical metro conditions. Best hole is the par 3 over the creek.

Not a fan of the front side. Back is a lot more fun and you get the added bonus of watching planes take off at Bowman Field. Fairways were average, but greens were pretty long. All temporary tee boxes which is an auto L.

Lots of history, but overall a pretty bland course in my opinion. Everything is dead straight and conditions were rough due to recent flooding.

Conditions were terrible in Summer 2024. Really liked the layout, but pace and conditions were rough.
