Very true. In fact, more than a quarter of the courses in the country are in five upper Midwestern states.Could it be that there are just more total courses in the North than the South?
United States as a whole....2551 courses.
Iowa....140 courses.
Illinois....126 courses.
Michigan....115 courses.
Minnesota....135 courses.
Wisconsin....136 courses.
Five state total....652 courses (25.56%).
And I'm of the opinion that when it comes to courses, quantity and quality tend to go hand in hand.
