Audubon Golf Trail

By Brian Weis

Louisiana's Audubon Golf Trail features 12 courses by designers including Hal Sutton, David Toms and Pete Dye. After your round, you'll find our "Sportsman's Paradise" has so much more to offer with great food, fishing, music and gaming.

Louisiana is more than great food, fishing and music - it's great golf. You'll find the twelve courses that make up Louisiana's Audubon Golf Trail quite exceptional.

The Audubon Golf Trail was named for naturalist/artist John James Audubon who, enchanted by the natural beauty of Louisiana, painted a number of his famous bird studies here. Coincidentally, all the courses on the trail are members of the Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary for Golf Courses, a program dedicated to protecting the environment and preserving the natural heritage of the game of golf.

Today, Louisiana boasts a trail as unique as the state itself. The Audubon Golf Trail gives new meaning to our nickname, "Sportsman's Paradise."

All of his life, Brian has been around the game of golf. As a youngster, Brian competed at all levels in junior and high school golf. Brian had a zero chance for a college golf scholarship, so he worked on the grounds crew at West Bend Country Club to pay for his University of Wisconsin education. In his adult years, his passion for the game collided with his entrepreneurial spirit and in 2004 launched GolfWisconsin.com. In 2007, the idea for a network of local golf directory sites formed and GolfTrips.com was born. Today, the network consists of a site in all 50 states supported by national sites like GolfTrips.com, GolfGuide.com and GolfPackages.com. It is an understatement to say, Brian is passionate about promoting golf and golf travel on a local, regional, national and international level.

On the golf course, Brian is known as a fierce weekend warrior that fluctuates between a 5-9 handicap. With a soft fade, known as "The Weis Slice", and booming 300+ drives, he can blast it out of bounds with the best of them.
