Venue

Shepherd's Crook Golf Course

Zion, IL, United States

Shepherd's Crook Golf Course, located in Zion, Illinois, opened in August 1999 and was designed by renowned architect Keith Foster. The course features a links-style layout that evokes the character of classic Irish courses like Ballybunion and Waterville, reflecting the golden era of golf course architecture from the 1920s and 30s. The course is characterized by bentgrass fairways, tees, and greens, providing both challenging and exciting play. Its design incorporates classic and strategic principles that work naturally with the terrain, returning players to traditional golf aesthetics and gameplay. Foster's routing emphasizes natural features and strategic shot-making rather than artificial difficulty. Shepherd's Crook has earned recognition for its distinctive design and playability. The course offers various amenities including a restaurant, tournament hosting capabilities, and outings facilities. Hole-by-hole drone videos and course photography are available to help golfers familiarize themselves with the layout before play. The course operates seasonally and accommodates both daily play and special events.
