Bowser Badlands is the last unlockable course in Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour. It features large quantities of lava, fortresses, volcanoes, and Ghost Houses. In addition to this, the course contains many hazards, including Thwomps, Boos, Bullet Bills and giant non-moving Bob-ombs. Some holes have Chain Chomps at the bottom of canyons and ditches; causing an O.B. if the ball lands near it. A Bowser Statue, Bowser Jr. statue and a pirate ship can also be seen here.

This course's music is a rearrangement of Bowser's battle theme from Super Mario 64. Once the tournament is beaten for this course, the player unlocks the Star Tournament.
