Indiana’s Signature 18: The Best 16th, 17th and 18th Holes No. 16 The 16th hole of Indiana’s Signature 18 is situated on The Warren Golf Course at Notre Dame in South Bend. TheWarren Golf Course is comfortably nestled on 250 wooded acres expertly preserved as a wildlife habitat, which has received the coveted Audubon International certification. Notre Dame’s Golden Dome is visible from the course.The red fescue, heather and other native grasses that adorn the course are thoughtfully trimmed back for maximum playability. Although the 345-yard par four 16th hole is the shortest par four on this golf course, success depends on the ability to choose the correct club for your tee shot. Think backwards on this hole. The desired length of the approach shot will dictate what length you should hit your tee shot. Once you reach the putting green -- a two-tiered green -- it is as tough as it is beautiful. No. 17 The 17th hole on the Purgatory Golf Club in Noblesville, Indiana serves as the penultimate hole on Indiana’s best 18 holes. Stretched out over 218 acres, the links-style course has something for all skill levels and provides a glorious golf experience that will keep you coming back. Purgatory features more than 130 bunkers, each filled with white, crushed limestone, though strategic golfers can avoid most of the bunkers. The 17th hole, named Hell’s Half Acre, is a par three with an island green. The putting surface on the 17th is surrounded by two acres of sand. An ace here would be unforgettable, a birdie would be memorable, and a par would be impressive. By Josh Alsip Indiana Golf Journal
