About this Event
Fried Egg Golf hosted our first ever event, The Steamshovel, at Lawsonia back in May of 2019. This year, we return to our favorite Wisconsin stomping grounds for the sixth time. The event will be the same as always, a 36-hole bash with best ball and alternate shot, and we'll have an optional two-man Derby on Friday afternoon ahead of the Lawsonia Fish Fry, a Wisconsin staple. Oh, and there will be plenty of Spotted Cow to go around.

Course Information
Lawsonia Links
If you’ve followed Fried Egg Golf for any length of time, you know that Lawsonia is one of our favorite spots in the country. The course’s architecture stands the test of time, providing numerous exhilarating shots throughout. We’re even more excited for 2025 thanks to the work the ownership has done to improve the course. Over the last two years, they have redone all the bunkers and increased fairway widths, helping expose even more of the brilliance in Langford & Moreau’s design. Expect a firm and fiery Lawsonia Links come September.
"The Links at Lawsonia is one of the best public courses in America and in the argument for the best course—public, private, or resort—in Wisconsin. The Langford & Moreau design pairs rolling topography with a set of bold manufactured greens and bunkers. Regular blind shots create a sense of adventure throughout the course, which matches the spirit of remoteness in Green Lake, Wisconsin, a place people have historically gone to escape." - Andy Johnson

We are making ours an alternate-shot horse race and calling it the "Fish Fry Derby." So grab your partner or show up on your own and we'll pair you up.
