If all courses were as easy as Saukie, golf would not be the infuriating sport it is. Fairly flat, no water hazards, and a limited number of bunkers. I think Tiger – well, the whoring Tiger – could probably break 50 here. Even a hacker can enjoy himself at Saukie. I played for my high school’s team one year, and it got me a summer of free golf. Monday to Friday, noon to 3, I believe. So a limited window, but hey, free golf. What else are you going to do when you’re fifteen, ride your bike and get high in the cemetery? Saukie was a godsend. Being at best a mediocre golfer, my favorite part of the day was usually the trip to the clubhouse. Since I’d gotten the round for free, I didn’t feel too bad about springing for a burger and a Cherry Coke. If I’d had an especially good or bad round, I’d get a cheese danish. And I think I just got diabetes typing that.
