Sultan’s Run: One of Indiana’s Magnificent Masterpieces “The Sultan’s experience is unique in that we are secluded fromthe hustle and bustle of bigcity noise,” said Jeff Howerton, headgolf professional at Sultan’s Run. “Upon arrival at Sultan’s Run, the golfer only sees woods, lakes and the golf course, which is unusual in today’s time with housing developments and resorts. It’s a great experience coming to hole number 18 with the beautiful vista from the top of the hill while teeing off and culminating with the 18th green being surrounded by a rock wall, trees and the waterfall!” The left-to-right dogleg par four 18th, the signature Hole at Sultan’s Run, is possibly the most dramatic home hole in When you make plans to visit southwest Indiana, possibly for Strassenfest in Jasper (August 4-7), you must set aside time to play the Sultan’s Run Golf Club.
