Dye Designs, International, based in Denver, Colorado, designed the course. The company is led by Perry Dye, who spearheaded the design work at Auburn Hills. The third-generation firm has designed over 200 courses throughout the world.
The course challenges you with 62 sand traps and 14 lakes. The golf course was designed with five sets of tees per hole to offer everyone an opportunity to play to their skill levels. The course features Bentgrass Greens that average 7500 sq ft., Zoysia grass fairways, and Bermuda grass roughs and tees.

I enjoy this course each time I visit ICT... great par 3's... if I could just figure out how to play #3 without losing my golf ball left or right!

The first par five needs to be made into a par four or change the landing areas. It is just missing a clown's mouth right now.

Auburn Hills is an extremely challenging layout that is an absolute monster from the tips. A fantastic value, it's the best public course you'll find in Wichita.

Really nice course, great layout, plenty of challenges. Stay out of the native areas, very deep. A good place to play, with good practice facilities. Chpping, putting, driving range all right at the clubhouse.
