College golf facilities: Michigan Wolverines and Weisfeld Family Golf Center

Take a look at the Weisfield Family Golf Center.

Playing golf in the northern parts of the United States can be challenging for most during the winter months.

For college golfers at Michigan, they don’t struggle with that because of the Weisfeld Family Golf Center. The facility opened in 2011 at a cost of $2.5 million, and it has only gotten better since then.

The on-campus facility is at the University of Michigan Golf Course, which is across the street from the Big House. The Weisfeld features two Trackman stations, a pair of GF Quad stations and the SAM Putt Lab.

The outdoor short game area, the Cilluffo Family Short Game Practice Area, was renovated recently. The five-acre area is at the northwest corner of the driving range at the Weisfeld Family Golf Center and features two large greens, several bunkers and subtle undulating fairways and rough areas.

And when Mother Nature turns the cooler on, players head inside to the Connie & Tony Ridder Short Game Practice Area.

Here’s a look at more college golf practice facilities.
