Ohio doesn’t typically spring to mind when you think of golf, does it? For many, Ohio is cold snowy winters, hard-luck NFL teams and Ohio State, the alma mater of Mr. Jack Nicklaus.

The Golden Bear is not Ohio’s lone contribution to the golf landscape, however. Home to some celebrated and world-renowned tracks, Ohio deserves a look for your next golf trip. Here are some notable courses to put at the top of your list.

The Public Courses

It has played host to many professional tournaments, including seven Tiger Woods World Golf Championship wins. While a private club, you can get on any of the three Firestone courses via stay-and-play packages.
