Victory Links Tournament Greens Putting Course – Blaine, MN

It was really hot that day with little shade. Plus I’m much more a fan of classic mini golf than I am of putting. But Mr. Tee wanted us to check out the putting course at Victory Links, so we did.

Par – If you’re looking to practice your putting skills, this is the place to go. Real grass, sand traps and well manicured greens nestled right next to a real golf course. You won’t find rubber-covered putters here, but you may get a chance to ride on a golf cart. I have to admit, without silly obstacles and waterfalls, I definitely felt out of place.

We saw this silly sign on our drive there and back and had to get a photo
