3 way tie for me. 18 at Blackwolf Run River / Championship course, bonus points for when the left bunker is flooded into a pond for the US Women’s Open

18 Sand Valley, I don’t normally like uphill holes of that nature but this hole is a rare exception with an awesome green.

18 Green Bay Country Club. Another exception to my uphill hole distaste (if you build a great hole I like to see it) but it’s a tough finisher with a cool hero shot into the green with the clubhouse in the background.

18 Straits sick finisher for the pros, brutal for the everyman

18 at Hawks Landing - a nice risk/reward par 5 with some fun options for pins.

18 at Bishops Bay - I liked it more pre changes, but it’s still a great finisher looking across the lake at the Madison skyline. @KC_Badger probably has better pictures than I can find on my phone.

18 at Horseshoe Bay - a great, sweeping, downhill finishing hole overlooking Green Bay.

And before any of you pricks say it, yes, my favorite courses for 18 are all private.

Might as well throw 18 at Milwaukee on there. Carry a huge cross bunker off the tee and an incredibly nervy approach shot. Downhill to a green with no bailout that’s sloped back to front, right to left. Go long and it rolls to the clubhouse and first tee

18 at LLB allows you to hit into a wedding if your control is off, right? That’s always fun

You can do that on 5 tee if you’re brave enough.

18 at LLB is so sick. You have to hit a good drive otherwise your left with a crazy long shot. On the right side of the fairway? Probably a blind shot with that hill. The green is basically a 3/4 bowl, you can use any slope imaginable to get close to the pin. I’m pissed I forgot to nominate 17 (the Eden there is so good). But it has probably the best closing stretch in the state, that I’ve played, with (14, 15) 16,17,18.
Also now has no one nominated Links 18?
Wisconsin just has way too many good 18th holes (unlike here in MN where we have like 1).

Strategically 18 was much better pre-reno (especially from the golds) but the view coming down the 18th fairway is hard to beat.
