About Us - SuperiorTrails Golfing

We elected to develop a golfing portion of the SuperiorTrails.com Lake Superior Circle Tour when I decided to "get serious" about golfing. Indirectly I blame my brother-in-law Dan Laufenberg (pictured below) for infecting me with this hobby. His wife, Donna, is pictured in some of the SuperiorTrails.com adventures, most often in the canoeing pages. But Dan doesn't canoe, doesn't camp, and only occasionally hikes so when we are traveling the Circle Tour together, he's often off golfing by himself while the rest of us are doing other things. So once or twice I decided to join him, to be a good sport so to speak, and I ended up deciding to take up the game. Result: a new section of recreational profiles around Gitchee Gummee.

Golfing around Lake Superior

As I am still in the duffer stage (shooting around a 100 for 18 holes) my perspective on courses will differ from a more proficient golfer. Where possible, I have engaged brother-in-law Dan to play and share his views on the various Lake Superior golf courses profiled here. Dan golfs in the low 80s and has played at many top courses around the country so his perspective provides a nice counter balance to my own.

Our goal is to give you a more in-depth guide to golf courses than is usually available on the Internet. We do this by playing the courses ourselves . . . paying attention to details of interest to golfers of a range of abilities and interests. Each golf course page will include pictures, maps and course data. As we get feedback from other players experiencing these same courses, we'll modify our profiles. Our golf course rating form (click here to view) will be our main means of learning from others, but if you'd like to pass along comments or a question in a conventional e-mail, free free to write me at roscoe@superiortrails.com

(Note to visitors: This coming 2010 golfing season, Dan and I will continue our schedule of personally visiting courses around Lake Superior. We have courses on the eastern part of the UP on our agenda. We hope also to get up to some Ontario courses and cover more along the Minnesota North Shore. As a work-in-progress we welcome contributions from operators of golf courses around Lake Superior as well as input from other golfers who have played the courses we have listed in our Lake Superior Golfing Guide.
