HONORING A LASTING LEGACY

Since its inception in 1952, Pine Lake has strived to fulfill its earliest mission: To be a place where families could gather and build lasting memories. It’s a vision the Nantzes manifested as one of the club’s founding families.

Long before the first round was played, Jim Nantz spent time walking the property alongside his father, mother, and sister. They cleared rocks and branches, hauling it all away in wheelbarrows, with the original fairways taking shape in the wake of their diligent and dedicated work. Their commitment to Pine Lake has left an indelible mark, one which persists through the tenets that still define our club: family, tradition, and a passion for growing the game.

The Nantz Course was created to honor that legacy. More than a tribute to one family, it reflects the spirit of Pine Lake, providing a place where juniors, beginners, and families can learn the game, make memories, and carry those traditions forward for generations to come.

 

THE NANTZ

The Nantz Course is an 18-hole, par-3 short course designed for golfers of all ages and skill levels. The course offers a fun and welcoming experience for everyone, whether you’re learning the sport, sharpening your short-game skills, introducing a junior to golf, or enjoying a round with family. More than just a place to play, the Nantz Course reflects Pine Lake’s commitment to growing the game. Come enjoy an environment where golfers can learn, improve, and make lasting memories together.

A TEE OFF TO REMEMBER

The Nantz Course officially opened in June with its inaugural Junior Tournament, benefitting First Tee — a non-profit, youth development organization dedicated to empowering kids through the game of golf. Jim Nantz, a Sports Broadcasting Hall of Famer, currently serves as the Honorary Chair of First Tee, a distinction previously held by Presidents George H.W. Bush and George W. Bush.

Nantz has long championed youth golf and the values of mentorship, character, and sportsmanship the sport instills. That commitment to inspiring the next generation of golfers is one Pine Lake shares, and it was on full display at the course's opening.

Together with First Tee, the event brought the course’s mission to life by providing young golfers the opportunity to learn, compete, and create lasting memories, while supporting First Tee’s mission to build character and life skills through golf. The participation of Nantz’s son, Jameson ‘Jamo’ Nantz, only added to the occasion, linking another generation of the family to Pine Lake.

As future junior tournaments and programs continue, the Nantz Course will remain a place where golf’s traditions are passed from one generation to the next, inspiring young players for years to come.
