| Cattle outnumber people 11-to-1 in Sioux County, Iowa, but that’s not a knock on the golf culture. Sioux Center has one of the largest junior golf programs in the country. There is an immaculate public course, a new nine-hole short course with template holes and a massive putting green like the Himalayas at St. Andrews. Several men’s and women’s leagues provide more than 400 folks with a social and competitive outlet. Local high school teams regularly feed players to the town’s university so they can compete right at home.
 In Sioux Center, one of the Best Little Golf Towns in America, it’s all about giving kids the best chance to fall in love with the game.
