Scattered from the shores of Lake Erie near Toledo to the suburbs of the capital city of Columbus, the ten courses that combine to form the Buckeye Golf Trail represent a sampling of the championship-caliber layouts found throughout the state and celebrate the heritage and history of the game nearly perfected by Ohio’s own Jack Nicklaus - the most decorated major champion in the history of professional golf.
