Saturday mornings are prime for tee times, especially at top courses like Whistling Straits. Booking early ensures you get preferred slots and maximizes daylight play.
Is one hotel enough for a weekend golf trip in Wisconsin?
Absolutely. Staying centralized, for example at The American Club in Kohler, keeps driving times short to multiple courses, simplifying logistics and maximizing playtime.
How early should I book weekend tee times?
