Rackham Golf Course was closed in October 1983 for major revisions due to the encroachment of I-696 extending through the area. Major changes to the front 9-hole layout were completed about years later. The 7th & 9th holes are the only two untouched front 9 holes remaining from the original Ross layout. The course is 18 holes with a Par of 71. A total of 6,555 yards with a course rating is 70.8. There are no water hazards on the entire course. Golf Simulator in the Pro-Shop for the winter months! High Tech Golf Simulator, same as Jordan Speith uses. https://www.facebook.com/Rackham-Golf-Course-189101068409924/ Rackham Golf
Urban golf placed on grass at the edge of one homes property, and is the concluding spot for each of the 9 holes. A player 'holes out' and concludes the hole when the tennis ball comes to rest within the confines of the hula hoop. Only one golf club may be used for the duration of a round, and must be either a 9-iron, pitching wedge, or sand wedge. Shots from the street, neighboring driveways, gardens, or different terrain are required and part of the course. Since 2003, an annual 16 person 'Townsend Open' is held, and has a strong local following.
